things seem pretty quiet in Missouri

Which I take to mean that there is ZERO chance that Cleaver will be defeated, and also, unfortunately ZERO chance of re-taking Skelton's seat.

See, I have to call it Skelton's seat because I do not even remember the Republican that holds it now, or know the name of any Democrat running against her.

Thank goodness the KC news is keeping me informed.

...so I guess SOMEONE is supporting him. Personally I don't think we need any more turkeys in Congress. (In fact, we need one less: Hartzler (R-4th/Batshit). Actually, we need a LOT less, but we'll work on that........)

2. one thing about yard signs

at least where I live.

We have these land barons - who own dozens of rental properties. And for some reason these rich SOBs seem to support the Republican and they put their yard signs out on all their properties. So you see twenty yard signs isn't twenty supporters, but one supporter who owns twenty properties.

(or any of the others, actually)! This amendment is actually written to RESTRICT how early voting can be done (typical Repug strategy--to say they're allowing something they're actually putting restrictions on!) It will prohibit Saturday/Sunday voting, and limit funding for ANY early voting measures. It's aimed at making it harder to vote early in districts that are predominantly minority.

Bad joo-joo from this one, and the others as well--all proposed by the Repuglikkkan legislature or groups tied to Sinquefield. Vote NO on all of them.
