Yesterday the Dems gained a new Democrat for VA and NJ Governor. In my area 4 important county positions went to the Democrats. The first time in decades. Did this happen where you are and is it a result of dissatisfaction with the current POSIC?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. I live in Utah!
The replacement for the seat Jason Chapputz left is a white male mormon mayor of Provo, home of the church-owned university.
A female doctor, who got tons of upfront money from out of state when she first challenged Chapputz, said she was really disappointed by the 57%-27% margin.
Disappointed - "I thought I could break through". Hell, she didn't even win in Salt Lake County.
Our big test will be the Salt Lake County mayor (D) going up against Mia Love (R). He has a chance with Mia only ahead by 3 percentage points in early polls right after he announced.
I believe he has a good shot, and I may volunteer for him. It would be nice to have a democrat in our delegation, and could serve the state well.
White mormon male, but more progressive than anyone we have now. Would be nice to have someone stand up for our environment.
I attended a City Council meeting last night to oppose the proposal of hiring a DC lobbyist - not just any lobbyist but one whose firm is being investigated by Mueller for money laundering and Russia connections. The Mayor announced at the start of the meeting that the agenda item had been removed. so we won...for now.
Every time he loses something, he talks shit like a little bitch. He never does anything. He's useless flesh.
Surfdead, he did not veto legal weed. He vetoed a bill from the Legislature, which wasn't very good anyway.
As it stands, the law that Mainers voted in, remains the one we go by. All he did was further delay the commercialization, and the potential for the state to make $ from it. Maine remains a huge weed State. I'll bet there are a lot less box trucks coming east these days! Everybody's walking down the street legal, though.
It's amazing, he says ridiculous shit, gets tons of coverage for it, and it gives both sides the impression that he accomplishes things. I swear he was a case study for Donnie's Plan.
