I know this because my husband got into a long discussion with one on Sunday

They’re paid and from anchorage apparently

She was, we didn’t need a fourth dog and we got her out of a bad situation but she sure needed us and stole our hearts

Everything about those quotes say everything you need to know about that race 😆

Really glad we’ve got him on the assembly for schools as well

I thought that was going to happen too- I have no idea how it didn’t other than that her policies are much more conservative than she lets on and we worked very hard to cut in with moderates on energy, senior issues and door knocking. Glad it didn’t because Roe had some bad policy ideas

Thanks Rita, she was diagnosed in mid July. We had two last good months with her before she deteriorated quickly. A very very good girl

This race was scaring the s*** out of me all summer but we worked as hard as we could to make sure he got over the line and it didn’t end up being a spoiler situation.

The candidate knocked on 1200 doors herself, volunteers I don’t know how many. My candidate knocked 500 doors. When we work hard together we win

As someone who worked on that campaign we held that damned line

We lost Sini on Tuesday after a two month long struggle with lymphoma. She responded well to chemo for a bit and we had a good last two months with her before she declined rapidly this weekend and into Monday. She was a few months shy of her fourth birthday and 2 year gotcha day. She will be missed

Grateful for these girls and for fall. Sini’s lymphoma isn’t in remission so for now we’re trying to make the most of every moment we have

Good god
That’s like a rare disease sample size

I don’t think the FDA has approved anything from what I’ve read- these are coming from the executive branch but the FDA itself isn’t caving
