Just so you know, I call my Republican congressman so often his staff member who answers the phone now says "Hi, how are you?" when she hears my voice!

There is a woman in my Rep's office who called me by name - unfortunately she doesn't answer calls anymore, so I get to talk to people who still sound like teenagers!

Jen! Will you be issuing a citing guide for our important local races in LA County?

Ouch! I trust just about anything that Jess recommends, but when I looked at actioncali.com selections, many of the judges and propositions warrant our own research. For example, for Judge Office No. 137, I worked with Tracey Blount, and she is ethical, grounded in common sense, has years of experience working with families in difficult situations, and is highly qualified. She'll be the kind of judge we want to see.

I had started my ballot using BlueVoterGuide.org.

Yeah I differ with her on a couple of the judicial recs. I used BVG too and then used that guide as a backup. But I voted for Blount.

End Putin's War in the Boston Globe today. Want Kamala to be more assertive about her Glock defending her home. Every firmness by her and Tim adds votes all the way down the ticket. Trump is really a coward, as most bullies are. Drain away his gang and he is nothing. His intimidation falls apart. Kamala and Tim have established their kindness. Now need to establish their steel.
