"A Campaign That Has the DFL Scared Witless"

Multipartisan Minnesota Blog about the Green Party Caucus in SD 61:

Farheen Hakeem attended and is still running a campaign that has the DFL scared witless. I doubt they will have a candidate who has the experience or knowledge that Farheen has. Mr. Hayden assumes that the DFL machine will hand him the seat. But if any challenger shows up on the primary ballot, he'll need as much help as he can get from them. His record in such primaries hasn't worked to his benefit in the past, garnering third place behind Elizabeth Glidden and Marie Hauser for city council Ward 8.

The blog mentions Green Party Senate candidate Thomas Harens:

He is outspoken on the issue of abortion. He is pro-life -- "How can we kill the unborn of our species?" he asked -- but at the same time says he is "pro-progressive" and seems to struggle with issues of gender freedom.

1. Barf indeed.

He looks like a creep and has made his rounds to nearly all the political parties it seems.

2. Any opportunist can call himself a Green and run for office....

Easy to get yourself endorsed when only a handful of people bother to show up:
