Transsexual Seeks GOP Nomination For Minnesota Legislature

[WillParkinson]

(Minneapolis, Minnesota) Chrissy Nakonsky is hoping to become the first transsexual elected to a state legislature.

Nakonsky who was married before she transitioned and remains with her wife has two children. She is seeking the Republican nomination in Brainerd.

"I've voted Republican all my life," Nakonsky told the Star Tribune newspaper. "Republicans swear by not raising taxes, and raising taxes would hurt families in poverty, like mine."

1. Hope she wins their nomination and loses in the general.

And not because of her gender.

But I think it's great she's running!

:thumbsup:

2. I feel sorry for her, she doesn't know that Republicans don't have

any concern whatsoever for "families in poverty". She says her family is poor, but she has voted Republican her whole life. Jesus, is there anything sadder than this kind of stupid self-abuse?

3. Ah, the full embrace of a conservative sister

I've never understood the "chickens for KFC" mentality, but it seems to be a Minnesota tradition among some TG women to be conservative.
