Just sang the opening refrain of Ah Has classic Take on Me for an hour. The baby felt I was a little flat but agreed after 110 attempts that I wasn't going to nail it and that it was time to call asleep.

Three 5th District candidates - Stephanie Lynch, Nicholas Da Silva, and Jer’Mykeal McCoy - just sent out a release calling Thad Williamson’s sample ballot “beyond unethical” and “misleading” VPM
