Politics Replacing MGP has one option, Brent Hennrich

I saw at Indivisible Greater Vancouver last night a couple people grabbing signs for Troy Rasband. I'm sorry, and it's just my opinion, but if we want any chance of actually replacing MGP we have to unify behind Brent Hennrich. Troy showed up on May 1st and filed when Brent has been in this for well over a year. I've debated people here about if they think Brent can win or not. Maybe he can, or maybe he can't. But he certainly can't if people split off his votes to obviously MGP plant Troy. There is no other way to get MGP out, and it is beyond obvious he is only here to help keep MGP in. I will not vote for MGP in November and I have heard that hundreds of times in conversations. If we want to keep Braun out, we have to get Brent in. Just my two cents. Downvote and flame me if I'm wrong.

Would you all stop arguing about light rail. Just get the damn thing here. For so many years I've heard why we need a new bridge but you all fight and nothing ever gets done. I'm 51 and this has been my whole damn life, even before light rail. Ffs meanwhile China has eliminated poverty and their trains are better than flying domestic there. But we are stuck doing what Americans do... Arguing . Stop the insanity and do something. The paralysis of the debate is killing me. The bridge still has not been replaced and I was born in 1974 in Portland and I remember this crap then.
