Her half empty bottle of water and sweaty hand said she had been campaigning in earnest. I have never seen an actual candidate do this. I was impressed and saddened.
As we talked I kept thinking there is no way I can vote for her. Her association with Don Blankenship was still bothering me and kept me from voting for her last time. I didn't discuss this with her because I really like her and such a topic had no merit.
As we said good-bye she walked to the next house and I got halfway through the house and realized she was listening to me and asking me questions. What sort of deal is this? A candidate for state office asking me what I thought.
I am used to my party telling the state and federal candidates what to say and how to vote. I don't know what she is up to but she will get one vote: mine!
