With election season in full swing and candidates doing door to door canvassing every weekend, I am getting nosy and want to know what campaign literature campaigns are putting out.

Today was a very sad day to be a Democrat. City Beat broke the news that Donna Frye had decided not to run for the Board of Supervisor’s seat currently occupied by the very old Ron Roberts.

Everyone knows I am not a big fan of Pam Slater-Price. If anyone needs to know why she doesn’t deserve re-election, just reading this article from the SDUT about her recent grants to the SD Opera and Old Globe theater.

Tracy Emblem has come a long way since her crappy campaign launch. Who can forget that first website that looked like a website from the 1990’s. But she is looking better and better by the week. Francine Busby, the leading Dem for the primary to take on Brian Bilbray this fall, has been around but she [...]

When I first wrote about the fast growing Frye for Board of Supervisors FB group, I checked the Re-elect Roberts group and it only had 52 members. I am guessing they took notice that they were a very small measly FB group and started recruiting former staffers and party insiders to grow quickly. Now the group [...]
