Delaware Political Weekly: March 8-14, 2014
Rep. Daryll Scott has designated his preferred successor. He’s Sean Lynn, a Dover City Councilman. Looks like he’d be a worthy successor to Scott, and the district is solidly blue. Of course, we don’t know if there will be any primary challengers, and we never know how someone will ultimately perform once in office.
I, for one, can only hope that Rep. Scott is not done with public service. He’s among the best progressives in the Delaware General Assembly.

Your opinion on the job performance of Speaker Schwartzkopf:
Approve – 71%
Disapprove – 25%
Meh – 4%
Those who approve do so strongly– 3/4ths of the people who approve Speaker Schwartzkopf do so strongly. Meanwhile, 2/3rds of those who disapprove do so strongly. Pete riles the passions. Speaker Schwartzkopf takes the Most Popular Politician in Delaware away from Matt Denn.
Greater Potential For Democratic/Liberal Domination in Delaware
A cursory look at the voting numbers in Delaware suggest plenty of room for growth for the DelDem party and the liberal movement. But, if they got their act together again, Republicans are not out of the picture. It is a function of who mobilizes to capitalize on this opportunity.
