ACP's Election Night Predictions
TUESDAY 8 pm...I do this every election and am not sure why--especially since I am usually off the mark WAY off the mark. I don't have such a hot average but I may make it better this time--sort of like a gambler, but there is no money involved. Well, readers know what I think of endorsements (except I do note that every newspaper in the First District is strongly endorsing Frank Kratovil and
Why? Not because she is the most experienced or most qualified to be a judge but because she is a Republican--at least in registration--and only in the last few years. This is about as absurdly partisan as it can get. Some zealous and hyper-partisan Republicans are furiously sending out emails urging their pals to vote for Asti...and apparently only because she is a registered R and her opponents
How Much Should We Pay Our Director of Transit (Remember--It Is NOT A Transportation Department But A Small Bus System)
We have just hired the person who used to hold this position and since it is a departmental director position, it must pay a minimum of $120k per year. I have long maintained that we pay our bus system director way above and beyond the typical salary for such a position and this is something I know a bit about. So, one might ask why a mid-to-upper level career person in public transit would leave
Beware of Last-Minute Attack Mailers....no matter from which party, group or shadowy "thing" they originate
I cannot stand the hypocrisy of partisan-motivated whiners about negative campaigning. They'll accept or ignore or brush off the most egregious forms of negative attack ads--until they go after the candidate of their party choice. I'm seeing it right now! Either you are opposed to all negative attack ads from any side...or you're just a phony partisan. There is so much %@!! going on from every
Even Josh Cohen is Weighing In On The Circuit Court Judge's Race!!!
A last minute plea from the mayor...In what can only be described as yet another weird turn this election season....Mayor Josh Cohen has sent out an email blast urging us to vote for the sitting Judges Jarashow and Kiessling...and the funny thing is that Cohen, a highly-partisan Democrat is supporting the two sitting judges, both Democrats and both appointed by a Democrat and claiming that their
2010 Elections Again--I Guess I Should Say "PLEASE VOTE!!!"
Yes....please vote. ACP will be calling in live to On The Foerfront on 1430WNAV from the polls at the Eastport Fire Station at 0815 am. Later on election day, we'll be reporting in from the election night "victory" parties. If you have not yet voted, perhaps we'll see you at the polls. Things have gotten strange and will only get stranger---in terms of the campaign ads that is. Did you see
The Final Word on Judd Legum's "Special Interests"
Following my "The Ninth Ward" column about the claims of candidate Judd Legum's refusal to not accept PAC money that appeared last Thursday in The Capital, Legum had a letter in Saturday's The Capital that attempted to defend his record. He wrote: "I believe that special interests have too much power in Annapolis. That’s why I’ve refused to accept any contributions from state lobbyists or PACs.
2010 Election Forecast – Mike Keller's Electoral Prognostications
Sometime Tuesday night we shall know....in the meantime, see what our local electoral guru Mike Keller has to say: U.S. House of Representatives – Leaning Republican. Analysis: Howard Beale in the 1976 film, Network, thundered “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.” That emotion seems to capture the mood the American electorate, anger tinged with a
