We need Sarah Lopez for
In the last election for county commissioner I backed Lacy Cruz. She was a progressive Democrat and she won against, Richard Ranzau, an arch conservative. Now we have another chance to elect a progressive Democrat, Sarah Lopez. She is running against O'Donnell, a very young conservative who is trying to rise up through the latter of shame—the scum circuit.
O'Donnell was originally in the Kansas Senate, representing the 25th District from 2013 until 2017. He was an accomplice to our terrible governor Sam Brownback and his crimes against the people, including rejecting healt care expansion. Not satisfied to wreck havoc in the senate, he then dislodged a respectable democrat to sit on the Sedgwick County Commission.
On top of being a conservative, O’Donnell was slso a crook, even though a jury found him not guilty. From Kansas.com:
“After deliberating for about four hours, a
federal jury on Monday acquitted Sedgwick County Commissioner Michael O’Donnell
of 21 counts of wire fraud connected to his campaign spending — but were
deadlocked on five other charges.
O’Donnell and his family shed tears as a court
staff member read the “not guilty” verdicts aloud shortly after 2 p.m.”
So he beat the rap. But for many of us, he is still a crook. He is just a successful crook who got away with it.
So once again we have a chance to replace this crook with a progressive Democrat Sarah Lopez. So vote for her, help on her campaign, and work for her in any way you can. This is one more example of how we can try to change this system.
