From the Tenth (not verified) on Fri, 08/07/2009 - 15:47
This is just what we need, the Congresswoman from the Ninth District endorsing one of the two candidates from the Ninth District for the Tenth District seat. I guess Jan wants the Ninth to have two representatives and the Tenth to have none.
Both Julie Hamos and Dan Seals live in the Ninth District. Isn’t there anyone worthy from the Tenth to represent it?
