Announcing DL’s MVP’s Of 2023!!
As usual, there are more than ten on the list. While one of Jason’s preferred choices isn’t on the list, I’m pretty damn sure he’ll agree with our #1. 10. Reps. Osienski , Heffernan, and Sen. Paradee. While none of the three would be categorized as predictably progressive, each of the three passed signature bills […]
‘Bulo’s Fave Tunes Of 2023: #’s 50-41
This could be the best list I’ve ever put together. Not b/c the tunes were necessarily better this year, but because I listened to the tunes without the videos, and wasn’t influenced by a great video perhaps elevating a not-so-great song onto the list. I started out with 118 songs before gradually whittling them down […]

Delaware Political Weekly: Dec. 15-21, 2023
1. 37th RD Special Election Post-Mortem: First of all, the Delaware Department of Elections can kiss my ass. I’m writing this at 9:05 on election night. The issue isn’t that we have no results, although we don’t. But that there’s no place on the DOE site where you can even find the results. Is DOE […]

Judge To Rudy: Pay Up Now!: For a guy who’s supposedly destitute, he’s still livin’ large. Time for that liquidation sale: Judge Beryl A. Howell wrote that there is a strong danger Giuliani is likely to hide his assets from plaintiffs Ruby Freeman and Wandrea ArShaye “Shaye” Moss and is unlikely to succeed in having […]

Tomorrow’s Special Election In RD 37: An Uninformed View From Upstate

Massive phone banks and grassroots activity. Special elections often are more about the parties than the candidates, and that could well be the case here. I honestly […]
