primary season

As many of you know, Tuesday, May 20th is Kentucky's primary for the presidential election, as well as many local races. My sister, Ellen Reitmeyer, is running for the Louisville Metro Council to represent District 18. This week, things really heated up when her opponent showed up at her residence with the hopes of stirring up some trouble (or so it now appears). To see a video from the local news, click HERE. It's crazy what people will do to try to sabotage an election, but I had to mention it here in case any of you happen to live in District 18, or know someone who does. Please encourage them to vote for Ellen. She is by far the best person for this job. Most decent people have no desire to get into public service for obvious reasons, but Ellen has the integrity and commitment to serve well, and keep others on the council in check.

I just watched that video...You have got to be kidding me!?! That guy sounds like a total creep! Did he really go through the garbage by Ellen's condo? That is weird, and if Ellen doesn't win then the mental capacity of District 18 should be seriously questioned.
