His poor attorney/attorneys. Even if your client is guilty as all hell, you still want to do your best and not have it ripped to shreds by said client.

The R candidate keeps putting his 6-7 grandchildren in his ads. Sweet kids. Focus seems very typical and bland R talking points. He is refusing to debate or even talk to local media. Very weird. Anyway, this tweet response from his extremely qualified opponent made me laugh. I feel like I was reading a lot of endorsements for Blood from long time high profile Republicans last week

I think that even if Pillen was available beyond small groups of carefully selected people, she would still be miles ahead. She is such a great candidate and has represented Bellevue, which houses the AFB (the biggest employer in the state). And now even the moon is in on it.

I fully deactivated Twitter today. The way Musk is treating his workforce makes me feel sick. Iβm so mad and sad about how this has all played out. π

Iβm so mad and sad about how this has all played out. π It's not going to work out the way he thinks, for many reasons. He also seems to be laying off most (all?) of the pregnant people, so that's another great move for the company.

I mean, I dunno guys. I donβt remember 1990, so the murder rate being at its highest rate since 1990 is significant, even if itβs not at high as it was back when we all licked lead paint and sucked down leaded gas fumes. I just think both sides are oversimplifying things. Crime significantly increased from 2020-2021 so I think it's out of bounds for Judd to call it a "hoax." I think the OMG CRIME narrative is absurd/racist/opportunistic but it's also dishonest to pretend it doesn't exist. My counterargument would be, instead of fear mongering about crime and mass incarcerating our citizens, we should use the data driven tools to reduce crime.

This has me putting on my tin foil hat 'Local elections officials in Virginia were scrambling Monday to process 149,000 βmotor voterβ registration applications suddenly sent to them over the weekend by the state Department of Elections, a problem related to computer failures that also happenedΒ earlier this month. The online applications were submitted by voters at Department of Motor Vehicles offices in advance of the Oct. 17 deadline for voter registration in Virginia, making those voters eligible to vote by absentee ballot or at polling stations on Nov. 8 once they are processed, elections officials said. Voters whose applications arenβt processed before Nov. 8 can still vote on Election Day but will have to do so through a provisional ballot, those officials said.' www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/10/31/virginia-motor-voter-glitch/

Iβd encourage folks to read the Pew Research article, not just the snappy tweet, before opining about crime rates in the country and how theyβre being used this election cycle. Just a thought.

Yes, the article was more nuanced than the tweet. Iβm not generally a Judd fan due to sensational tweets. I was disappointed to see this in the research notes: β (There were not enough Asian American voters in the Centerβs survey to analyze independently.)β Seems like a huge oversight given the large increase in anti-Asian hate crimes.

At least since i can remember at the DMV that's been an existing option.
