My Apology to Kyra Hoffner

I’m not in the 14th since redistricting, but Hoffner is doing what I try to tell all democrats to do – be prepared to run twice or even three times.

She came in 2nd in a three way primary which was won easily by the aged incumbent, Bruce Ennis.  With  the retirement of Ennis, Hoffner is now well positioned to keep the seat Democratic.

The other day called this a possible pick-up for the R’s.  That was bullshit.  There have been so many races in which the Dem nominee from my RD has underperformed that I guess I had frankly checked-out a little on the comings and goings in the 14SD and the 9RD.  Sorry about that.

Go KYRA!  To donate money to her and help her beat Pugh, click here.

    Name ID matters in these down ballot race and running before (even if unsuccessful) def helps your chances.

    Congrats to Kyra. Pugh is trash

  2. RE Vanella

    Has Krya on the podcast during her first go. Good candidate.

    Big Kyra fan here, hope it’s on to victory. But as ever ready to trash, bash and denigrate Pugh.

  4. This really demonstrates the value of being prepared to run twice. I’m thinking about Cotto and the fact that Deb Hef (no matter how many awards chemical companies, and Big Pharma want to lavish on her) might have real qualms about even running again given the amount of work she had to do to hold on by the skin of her teeth this time.

    True. But Becca put over a year of her life into that campaign. She will need, and deserves, time to reflect on that. I don’t think there was anything she could have done differently.

    Unless Deb miraculously gets better, the seat could be Becca’s for the taking in 2024.

    I lived in that district for most of my life, and I know that she can win. It will take a lot of work, but a pro-worker candidate like Kyra can absolutely succeed. Let’s get her the support she needs!

    Porn, weed and legislator. That could be quite the resume!

    • El Somnambulo

      That’s the best you can do, asshole?

      Just one reason you’re gonna lose big time,

    • What’s wrong with porn and weed? Someone would probably have to be pretty high to fuck you. You should be grateful.

      • I didn’t even get it. Even before Trump making sense wasn’t a high priority but now, since Trump, they don’t even try.

    • Harold

      wtf does porn have to do with anything??

      • RE Vanella

        nobody knows. nobody cares.

    Gotta agree with with Al here. I have no idea what any of this has to do with Kyra Hoffner (Great Candidate!)… but sex and weed are some of the best stuff human life has to offer. Sex and weed for all! Great slogan.

  9. peter briccotto

    Have plenty of family/friends in that district – a door knockin’ I shall go! Go Kyra!

  10. bamboozer

    REV scores big with “nobody knows. nobody cares.” That and I endorse this message.

    Kyra is a very personal candidate with a sense of humor even. She knows the issues and even worked on a lot of issues that benefit all people and evidence of that was when she did loads of work for the league of Women voters. She is in position to ad acrown Jewell to the state Senate. I’m going to do what I can, “door knock” and text message for her.
