Let's face it. The Guy is white, so he is allowed to assault a police officer at a traffic stop and not get summarily executed. The Middletown Police Department reported…

What a racket. I wonder what dover Downs CEO, Ed Sutor, is making in combined salary and bonuses? Whatever it is, he should bring his compensation package to the table when he goes to Leg Hall begging for more welfare.

Opening on a town square in the south (or anywhere in America for that matter). Bo and Luke are resting against their car, parked in front of a courthouse.

With the utter domination of Lacey Lafferty by Colin Bonini, and now that Charlie Copeland has kicked the Party's downstate garbage unceremoniously to he curb with his claims that the DEGOP is no longer in the business of shitting on gay people, it is worth asking, what's next?

Wired's Emma Grey Ellis tallied up the amount North Carolina has lost so far due to it's HB2 bathroom fixation. The $176,000 taxpayers have spent so far, and additional $500,000…

In short: The Dem primary is the election in Presidential years. Team Simpler will be back in two years with the "I'm not really a Republican" theme they used to great effect last time, and will probably give Lisa Blunt Rochester a decent run for her money. Has LBR started fundraising for 2018 yet? Sad to say, but she better get on that.

Does anyone know DEGOP Special Election Specialist, Tom Kovach's, whereabouts? Too soon? El Som lays it out in a comment:

I am worried about what will happen in SD 10 once Bethany Hall-Long is elected Lt. Governor in November. Late fall/early winter special elections are not exactly D strong suits. Looks like Quin Johnson and Earl Jaques are in that district, so maybe it’ll be one of them. Which, of course, would necessitate a House Special Election should one of them win…

While I agree Dems have sucked in specials, I think Jaques is seasoned enough to not get caught with his pants down. The ensuing 27th RD special if Jaques moves up, who knows? The district seemed a bit of a toss-up until Jaques started consolidating votes as the incumbent. He got 65% against Republican nominee Jay Galloway in 2010 and was unopposed in 2012.

My takeaway from the Johns/Griffiths result is that the 9th was largely ignored by the marquee races and the lack of effort by the well moneyed campaigns (eg. no house meetings, no neighborhood association meetings, no door knocking, etc.) left the 9th to stay in and watch The Big Brother Finale (or whatever it is you people watch on Tuesday).

I'm surprised. The one thing that wingnuts typically do well is turnout for primary elections. Not this time. While John Carney is still the next Governor, this result is interesting.…

We've gotten a couple nudges on the tip line to discuss the Dem's Lt. Gov primary race. For what it's worth, I'll probably vote against Pete's play for getting a…

The town of Rehoboth is at war with cyclists. When it should be supporting cyclists, it is instead trying to drive them away. While there may not be a smoking…

From the FB page of Tom Noyes: The News Journal isn't going to run this letter I submitted in support of Eugene Young, so I'll just post it here. To…
