Whan that new poll by Mason-Dixon fair
Did make its way unto the air Conducted by the Fairness Campaign bright A pro-LGBTQ rights group with might The question posed did bring to light A topic of great moral right Should state leaders have the power To overrule parents' wishes hour by hour? And lo, the answer came forth clear From seventy-one percent without fear Nay, say they, such laws should not exist For parents' wishes should always persist In matters of their children's lives The power should rest in their hives For who can know a child's heart Better than those who from birth did impart? So let it be known throughout the land That parents' wishes should remain grand And state leaders should not interfere In matters of their children dear.
Dear ChatGpt - In the style of Chaucer, can you write a about A new Mason-Dixon poll by the Fairness Campaign, that showed 71% of respondents oppose laws letting state leaders overrule parents' wishes?

Poll Results – This Week’s Poll: Who do you want to be Delaware’s next Lt Governor?

As to the question  "Which issue should Bethany Hall Long pick to be her signature issue in the upcoming gubernatorial race?"

It was a dead heat with "Access to healthcare for women in post Roe Delaware (24%)" barely edging out  "Continuing the work of the Carney admin (21%)" and "Addressing the wanton lawlessness of DE Cops through LEBOR reform (23%)". All of those are funny to me. "Addressing the wanton lawlessness of DE Cops through LEBOR reform" is perhaps the most hilarious.  This has less than zero chance of being a concern of the possible Hall-Long administration.   But it reminds me... Pete wants a special license plate for cops.  I haven't followed it closely, but what does the plate commemorate? LEOBOR Today, LEOBOR tomorrow, LEOBOR forever! ? Onward to this week's The floor is open and please note the wording is: Who do you WANT to be the next Lt Gov.   So all you Tabatha fans, this is your moment.
