I haven't updated this blog in two months, due mostly to medical issues. It is my hope that I will be able to resume writing consistently now that I am feeling mostly better. This post is mostly just me catching up on everything that's happened in two months. I plan to begin writing the post on mental healthcare today, and it should arrive next week.
Since my last update, many candidates have dropped out of the race, listed below:
- Patrick Littlefield
- Steve Kerrigan
- Nadeem Mazen
- Terry Ryan
- Keith St. John
Also, in that time, a ballot initiative received enough signatures that it will be down-ballot from whoever wins this race, which asks whether we want to discriminate against trans* people. This is notable because one of the candidates *is* trans, and if she wins, then she will share a ballot with a question of whether or not she should be allowed to pee in a public rest room. This is, clearly, deeply disturbing.
