Who knows? He might win. It’s not as if there’s an undeniable powerhouse in the race, or a progressive candidate who can galvanize the grassroots:
Meyer, who has been county executive since 2016, launched into Delaware politics as a progressive outsider. He primaried and defeated then three-term incumbent Tom Gordon, an embattled politician who had his hands in New Castle County politics for decades.
Before entering politics, Meyer worked as a school teacher, attorney, entrepreneur and economic development advisor for the U.S. State Department in Iraq. He didn’t have much government experience before leading the state’s largest municipal government, which has an annual budget of about $300 million.
Me? I’m holding out for a progressive candidate who can galvanize the grassroots.
