Kowalko Addresses Toxic Chemical Reform
If you didn’t get a chance to read the Jeff Montgomery articles on tainted groundwater, put down that glass of water and read it now. Seriously, put down the water. You come away from that series feeling like a passenger that has no knowledge of boats, but just found out that your ship is sinking […]
Navarro Gets the Democratic Nod
After months of wrangling, last night the New Castle County Democrats endorsed Trinidad Navarro for New Castle County Sheriff. This marks a huge victory for Navarro, as his primary opponent, Michael Walsh, has been New Castle County Sheriff since Ronald Reagan was first elected.

Shadow Campaign for Treasurer
There has been a rotten thread running through the Treasurer’s race this year. The thread is that one campaign is trying to destroy their opponent on the way to the Democratic nomination. This is unbecoming of the two fine candidates that are competing to battle Colin Bonini in the fall. Sadly, the force behind this shadow campaign of destruction is so close to one of the candidates that the solution isn’t as simple as firing a staffer.

A Path to Good High-Paying Jobs in Delaware
You may not know it, but there is a jobs bill in Dover that can’t seem to get a vote. Speaker Gilligan has been dragging his feet on putting the jobs bill on the floor. I am a little amazed by that fact, since it is a jobs bill that doesn’t even have a fiscal […]
Mayberry This Ain’t
I’m not sure how closely you have been following the race for Sheriff in New Castle County. As small-time elections go, this one has the makings of the most interesting primary in New Castle County. Long-time Sheriff, Mike Walsh has held the office since Reagan was elected President. He is being challenged by NCC police […]
Poor Steve Cohen
Steve Cohen is running for reelection as a Tennessee Representative, in Harold Ford’s old seat. He won in 2008, in part due to the endorsement of Barack Obama. Race is an issue in this district, and Cohen is facing an African-American former Memphis mayor. In this painful video, some of his supporters have composed a […]
