You’re spending your vacation doing this? That’s a weird way to spend it honestly.
She didn’t move there to run against Jan Shakowski. She moved there for her boyfriend’s work, before Jan announced her retirement. Then she saw a district she could run in, then she started her bid. Then Jan retired seeing that she wouldn’t be running unopposed. Then she posted the video saying hey this is an open primary, I got my candidacy up and running, red tape was a bitch, I’ll help you fill out your paperwork to run, and I’ll throw you 1k for your candidacy site.
You’re not arguing in good faith so I’m going to leave the below for others.
She’s trying to show that money in politics can be used at the community level and is foregoing large media ad buys like TV ads and the like and instead is funding food outreach and beach cleanup. Call it what you want but I’m happy that the tens of thousands, potentially hundreds of thousands are being pumped back into our local community here.
I think you might be best served to go enjoy your vacation away from a screen. Cast your ballot like we all will be, or don’t. I seriously don’t care as you’re very convinced of your primary position and I’m not going to reason you out of a position you didn’t reason yourself into.
