As the Primary and General Off-Year Elections creep up on us I’m interested in getting posts from readers about their local political scene. Places like Texas, Colorado, Florida, Ohio, South Carolina, North Carolina, Illinois, Minnesota are represented by readers here. Even Canada and Australia have local political stories that some of our readers might want to provide. So if you are interested in sharing your perspective on your local politics, get in touch. Either leave a comment or send an e-mail to orionscoldfire at charter dot net. Anonymity is, of course, perfectly fine and if you prefer to discuss local cultural issues instead of or in addition to politics that also is encouraged. I’ll add this want-ad to the footer of the posts for a while to see if I can entice any readers to write.

I believe you’re an Ohioan. Do you have any thoughts on the Mike DeWine vs Jim Renacci governor’s primary? I think I’ve heard DeWine has made himself unpopular over COVID but it’s all third hand info as far as I know.

DeWine, or as many call him, DeSwine, is very unpopular over covid policies, many of which were overturned by the Ohio Supreme Court. I would not be surprised to see Renacci make a very strong showing but DeSwine has the backing of the ones who made the most money during the pandemic
. He has the money and he runs the machine. I hope he is soundly defeated but I have so little faith in the current electoral system that I am doubtful.
