Delaware Political More-Or-Less Weekly–Late May Edition
1. A Four-Way R Primary For Governor? It’s possible. Brew Pub owner Neil Shea has filed. State Senator Bryant Richardson has announced that he will run. Grocery store magnate Chris Kenny has been testing the waters. And someone named David Joseph Bosco of Greenwood filed this week. All I can tell you about him is that he is in his 40’s. If anyone knows him, please share whatever info you have.
2. Gerald Brady Gets A Primary Challenger. Again, there is no information about her that I can find. Her name is Amy. Solomon. Yes, the period after her name appears on the DOE website. She lives on N. Grant Avenue. That’s it. Not even a phone #. Anybody got anything? I mean, if she’s even the least bit credible, she’d be an upgrade.
3. The Carney/Hall-Long Team Has Filed For Reelection. Meh.
4. Filing: Wilmington City Council Member Chris Johnson (CD 7).
That’s all I’ve got. What’d I miss, and whaddayathink?
Any update on any credible challengers to any other statewide races?
Usually, right about now in the legislative calendar, word starts leaking out regarding retirements. But, with nobody in Leg Hall, the rumors aren’t flying like usual.
We still expect Jess Scarane to file against Coons, and there are a couple of progressive challengers who I hope and expect to file: Larry Lambert in RD 7, and Marie Pinkney in SD 13.
Anybody out there got any rumors?
I always loved a heaping tablespoon of “BOSCO” in my milk when I was a kid
Pretty sure Sen. McBride is retiring.
He’s already filed.
Has sent out fundraisers for August. So, I think he is running !
