While I'm sure Senator Kehoe appreciates your endorsement, she may be a little put off that you listed her as a republican... :)

I'm surprised you didn't list Dean Inada for Democratic Central Committee 70th AD. Dean does a ton of good work, including put out the newsletter with every single progressive event in the county.

Also, I'm curious that you found Jon Fish unacceptable. Also, that you skipped over Mike Bartlett. Both of them were recommended to me by Steve Young, and I heard both of them speak and answer questions at length. Also surprised you didn't list KC Jones as "acceptable." He is a big supporter of labor.

Anonymous--Thanks for the catch. I made the correction here, but not in time for the mailer.

Sharon--We send questionnaires out to all candidates, however, we can't control who returns them. Unfortunately, some folks still don't want our endorsement regardless of how good they are on our issues.
