We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I mean... I question any Republican's fitness for office. This guy might be even denser than normal, but it's not as if he's that far from the GOP average.

Meh sometimes for local government there aren't a lot of good options. You can't really primary an incumbent and going independent just makes it that much harder. However, I assume you weren't talking about city comptroller you were talking a real position like Congress or Governor
