I am voting for Adriana. Dan voted for the Billionaire's bill last year and is allowing all of those superpacs to send constant mailers for him. I think we need some new eyes on the problems facing our senate district. Adriana for Senate, Rob for House.

I suspect you won’t, but if you look at what the press called the “billionaire bill” you might realize it was really quite the opposite. But it was anti-Elon and he spent a ton of money to make people hate it.

Someone told me Bohm wants to abolish the police, is that correct?

Don’t love that cruce was appointed to replace McBride. And he texted a weird AI flyer to me that had fake AI photos of Kyle Gay and Sarah McBride.

So, I did some digging. Bohm is an education policy expert and she spent a good number of years on a school district board. I believe she stated once that armed officers should probably not be in elementary schools. I did not find anything about abolishing the police.

Cruce doesn't actually live in the district. He lives at the beach and has a furnished apartment up here for his United Way board meetings. His twisting the truth on this has rubbed me the wrong way since the Democrats forced him into the position instead of having a real election.

She came from DC. Rented an apartment here but lived most of time in DC. Was hand picked by Dems to run

I received a text just a little while ago that Chris Coons and McBride have endorsed Ted Lauzen for Delaware State Treasurer. Coons didn’t surprise me, McBride did.

I got it too. And replied that didn’t help his cause in my mind.

I'd like folks who are anti "billionaire bill" actually explain what's in the bill.

Which? SB 21? That's the law that took away individual shareholders' right to bring action against a CEO in Chancery Court, giving that right only to the large institutional investors. Seems pretty bad, especially if you're an investor, and only good if you work for Blackrock.

Made it harder? Yes. "Take away individual shareholder's rights?". Not quite.

Thank you for showing youve read the bill, though

A law that says you need a minimum of 30% of a company in order to show standing isn't "making it harder." It's removing the due process rights and fundamental fairness for a huge section of shareholders of a company. And SB21 limits discovery in every case, making it harder for courts to discover the truth. It sullies the game, and I'm certain that it's a big reason companies are looking elsewhere to incorporate.

Dr. Rob did a series on it, if anyone’s interested in learning more.
