I voted in the Republican primary today. I’m hoping against hope that we will be able to get rid of the unelectable moron Darren Bailey as the R candidate for governor. This is also an opportunity to support some great R people on the local level. One of them saved us all during COVID and then got displaced by a former colleague of mine. It’s all my fault, actually, because I couldn’t get her a contract amidst budget cuts. She had nothing to do and went into politics, displacing this firebrand Republican guy who also happens to be the husband of a friend of mine. Small towns are like that.
I’m having a crazy day today, having to drive to St Louis for a student-teacher observation in French, of all things, and then back for two DEI trainings one right after another. But at least I voted Republican in the morning. That compensates me somewhat.
