BREAKING: Three Mighty Progressive Challengers Have Filed!!
Volunteers, pick your candidates. Or, better yet, spread the love around.
One of the challengers had already made it official, and has been campaigning for some time. However, Shané Darby has now officially filed to take out Nnamdi ‘I’ve Already Retired, Just Haven’t Bothered To Tell Anybody’ Chukwuocha.
Oh, we’re just getting started. Dr. Adrianna Bohm indeed will primary Rehoboth Senator Dan Cruce, who perhaps will have to spend more time at his second home in Wilmington than usual. Forgetting Cruce’s insiderism, isn’t it only fair that someone who actually lives in Wilmington represent the constituents in Harris McDowell’s and Sarah McBride’s former senatorial district? Had there been a primary for the open seat when Sarah went to DC, I’m pretty sure that the voters would have thought so. We will now find out for sure. Bohm filed on September 8.
Wait, not done yet. I’ve been excited about this one for the last couple of weeks, ever since this guy knocked doors with us for Shay Frisby in SD 5 (her campaign’s going great, thanks for asking) as he wanted to experience what door-to-door canvassing is all about. His name is Dr. Robert Bahnsen, and he has filed in, wait for it, RD 12, where he will run against the House’s prime enabler for Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, Krista Griffith. Bahnsen is a psychiatric physician, so I suspect his door will be open to both constituents and legislators alike in Dover should he get elected. Not to mention, could anyone be better prepared to deal with the panoply of personality disorders he’ll encounter there?
Kids, I hope this has amused your bouches. Much more goodness to come…
Having worked for Matt Denn, I was always surprised by how shit-ass Krista Griffith turned out to be. There is no telling, I suppose.
Could you IMAGINE if Matt Denn came out of political retirement to challenge–Chris Coons??
Judging by his socials, he seems to be very happy doing good works and spending time with his kids. He was involved with the anti-lead efforts here recently, so he hasn’t checked out.
I certainly can’t begrudge him the time, and I don’t see him wanting to trade that for the hellhole that is the Senate.
I agree. He seems well-adjusted, which is not ordinarily a term I’d throw around when it comes to politicians. Now and forever one of my absolute faves.
But, could you imagine IF…
Yes, can you imagine a Principled Progressive primarying a Balding Narcissist?
Agree it’s unlikely for the reasons mentioned; also, keep in mind that he’s still got a bit of the old Delaware Way in his political blood. Not one to risk ripping the party apart, even for a cause as noble as sending Coons back to W.L. Gore.
Now we need challengers for…..Bill Bush, Kim Williams, and Bill Carson.
I suspect you will get AT LEAST 1/3 of your wish.
Perhaps more…
