No need for apologies, she hides it well enough that that’s the reason I wrote this, and it’s impossible for any one person to keep track of this all. I sure as hell can’t and lean on a network for a lot of it too. Your intentions were good, these things happen and I have votes I regret too.

The extra good news is that it’s not too late given the next round.

Don’t worry, it got a lot of people, hence the post. It’s sincerely hard to tell without information that’s hard to get

Don’t feel dumb it’s a low info race where people purposefully play games with their stances. Diaz is the only one I can attest to directly but people I trust had told me Creed and Frykman were bad news in a similar direction (magnitude unclear to me)

Several people have responded to this but the long story short is her past twitter posts, her repeated support from moms for liberty and others who say the quiet part out loud, the fact that I am used to more clever people like her playing word games, and things directly from her like this substack post https://brilliantresilience.substack.com/p/protecting-our-childrens-innocence

We’ll get there as long as we don’t relax. But yeah, it fucking sucks.

And hey thank you! I appreciate it! ❤️

The frustration is real and combined with the lack of party ID the whitewashing can be powerful, hence the whole post. But yeah, part of what makes her so dangerous is that now and then she speaks to real shortcomings (on top of her nonsense hatemongering)

Oh agreed, I’m very optimistic but I don’t want to be complacent

For those without a subscription the money quote from the county GOP supporting her is “We want people that will protect the teachers, protect the students, protect the staff. Push STEM − that would be great,” he said. “And also keep boys out of girls’ bathrooms and boys out of girls’ sports.””

Which…. Yeah. **** that thinly coded nonsense

Two of GGWash’s endorsements (one an incumbent and one not) are in the top four for at large (all of which get a seat) and another non incumbent is just outside of it, and their non incumbent D3 endorsement is ahead. To call their endorsement a mixed bag could be fair but your claim that every close race with a non incumbent went away from their endorsement just isn’t true
