Thank you Rose FOR BEATING THE DEMOCRAT!
Whoopi - 35 votes and she doesn't know what the position entails.
14 years and Ward doesn't know what the position entails!
Do YOU know what the treasurers position does?
Rose just don`t trust Ward.
6:41
But being a rookie, who can she trust?
She calls Stortz a "trusted friend" that should scare everyone.
Doesn't scare me and most of the people that I talk to.
5:30
Interesting that Stortz helped Parente and she won while Moccabee helped Alford and she lost big time.
Too bad the Republicans don't wake up and smell the coffee.
8:25 don't forget Schaffrick also helped Alford. Enough said!
I hope Mary learned if she ever plans to run again.
If I recall properly, Parente was Stortz's treasurer.
Do you think that that might haveadded to her attracting so many votes?
