What the candidates have raised and spent through March 1

Possible replacements for Joe Biden

Here are seven possible replacements for Biden

Business Insider just published a report identifying seven possible individuals who could replace President Joe Biden in the 2024 general election.

The outlet also notes some of the pros and cons of each candidate.

This most recent speculation about Biden's replacement has been ignited by Special Counsel Robert Hur's report. Hur found that Biden "willfully retained and disclosed classified information after his vice presidency when he was a private citizen."

Yet, Hur chose not to charge Biden, because, in the special counsel's opinion, a jury would be unlikely to find Biden guilty given that he is "a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory." It is this line, in particular, that has set off the latest Biden replacement talk. [Patriot News]

7 Dems who could replace Biden

If Biden campaigns from his basement again and does not meet with the news media too many times, he will be the nominee. Everyone knows it is his handlers running this govedrnment and he beat Trump once and believes he will do it again.

Palm Beach Post endorses Reinaldo Diaz for District 4 Commissioner

As expected and in lock-step with The Sun Sentinel, the other Alt-Left rag

Endorsed Diaz for Lake Worth city commission District 4 seat

We disagree with the Palm Beach Post for a myriad of reasons but perhaps they are right this time. I remember years ago when the Post endorsed Barbara Aubel (now Barbara Resch) who I liked but her opponent, Dave Vespo, won. Maybe we'll see a repeat and a reversal, reflected in the voting booth, in the Post endorsement in this instance.

Craig Frost! == and it's been confirmed by someone who recently interviewed Craig, he is against a public/private partnership at our beach. But we don't know what to believe!

Vote NO on Question 3 and if in doubt on the amendments, vote NO on all 4.

Candidate forum Monday night at The Beach Club

Parrot Cove Candidate Forum

The forum was informative with two out of the three candidates present. It was announced that Craig Frost was in the hospital with a follow-up to a procedure.

REINALDO DIAZ, Democrat
Issues
Wants to keep our beach public...no public/private partnerships. Wants to repair our pool.

DANIEL MORGAN, NPA
What he's all about
It's all about the "immigrants" and helping them to prosper here. He, too, wants to keep our beach public.

CRAIG FROST, NPA
Craig's Facebook page
Craig was not there last night but had a spokesperson, Lindy White.
He is FOR a Public/Private partnership at our beach and wants to "finish"? the beach complex. In the beginning of the forum, applause was loud and enthusiastic for Craig but when it got to the "finish" the beach complex issue, it dropped off substantially.

The Sun Sentinel endorsed Reinaldo Diaz but also liked Daniel Morgan.

What the left-wing Sun Sentinel said:

"Three people want to fill the District 4 seat: Reinaldo Diaz, Craig Frost and Daniel Morgan. Frost ignored our request for an interview and to submit a questionnaire. Diaz and Morgan, both of whom are Hispanic, would bring diversity to City Hall in their advocacy for people and places that need much more attention from local government."

The paper also endorses a "yes" vote for all the amendments.

We, on this blog, continue to say, "When in doubt, vote NO" and definitely VOTE NO on Question 3.

Ballot Questions & Explanations:

Question 1

“SHALL THE CITY OF LAKE WORTH BEACH AMEND ITS CHARTER AT ARTICLE III, SECTION 2 TO PROVIDE THAT NO PERSON MAY SERVE MORE THAN A MAXIMUM OF TWELVE CONSECUTIVE YEARS AS A CITY ELECTED OFFICIAL AND THAT NO PERSON MAY SERVE MORE THAN TWO CONSECUTIVE FULL TERMS AS MAYOR OR COMMISSIONER WHEREIN THE OFFICES OF MAYOR AND COMMISSIONER WILL BE CONSIDERED SEPARATE OFFICES FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH CONSECUTIVE TERM LIMITS?”

Currently, there are no term limits in the City’s Charter.  This question would allow a Commissioner or Mayor to serve only 2 3-year terms in a row, then have to wait for 23 months before running again for the same seat. A Commissioner could run for Mayor or a Mayor for Commissioner after serving 6 years, but the maximum time they could serve would be 12 years after which time they would have to sit out for 23 months.

Question 2

“SHALL THE CITY OF LAKE WORTH BEACH AMEND ITS CHARTER AT ARTICLE V, SECTION 4 TO PROVIDE THAT A CANDIDATE WHO QUALIFIES FOR A RUN-OFF ELECTION IS AUTHORIZED TO CONCEDE THE RUN-OFF ELECTION WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THE CERTIFICATION OF THE ELECTION RESULTS THEREBY DOING AWAY WITH THE NEED FOR A RUN-OFF ELECTION AND ALLOWING THE REMAINING CANDIDATE TO BE DULY ELECTED?”

Concession is not addressed in the City’s Charter. In 2019, the candidate who was in second place after the general election conceded, but the City had a run-off election to ensure compliance with the Charter.

Question 3  VOTE NO

“SHALL THE CITY OF LAKE WORTH BEACH AMEND ITS CHARTER AT ARTICLE III, SECTION 1 TO PROVIDE FOR SINGLE-MEMBER DISTRICT VOTING WHEREIN EACH COMMISSIONER SHALL BE ELECTED BY THE VOTERS RESIDING IN HIS OR HER OWN DISTRICT, AND WILL CONTINUE TO REPRESENT THE ENTIRE CITY AND WITH THE MAYOR CONTINUING TO BE ELECTED BY THE VOTERS OF THE CITY-AT-LARGE?”

District Commissioners are currently elected at-large, meaning that all voters in the City vote for each Commissioner. Many cities have single-member district voting where only the voters living in that district can vote for the Commissioner for that district. Each Commissioner would continue to represent the entire City and the Mayor would continue to be elected  at-large.

Question 4

“SHALL THE CITY OF LAKE WORTH BEACH AMEND ITS CHARTER AT ARTICLE III, SECTION 5 TO PROVIDE THAT WHEN THE CITY COMMISSION IS REQUIRED TO FILL A VACANCY ON THE COMMISSION BY APPOINTMENT, SUCH APPOINTMENT SHALL BE MADE BY THE REMAINING MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION NO LATER THAN 24 HOURS PRIOR TO THE OPENING OF THE QUALIFYING PERIOD FOR THE NEXT CITY ELECTION?”

The Charter does not specify a specific time for filling a Commission vacancy beyond the overall time between a vacancy and the next election. This amendment would add language that an appointment to fill a Commission vacancy would have to be made before the start of the qualifying period.

Reinaldo Diaz Campaign Web site

Reinaldo states that he is a lawyer. Lawyers are people who have gone to law school and often may have taken and passed the bar exam.

Reinaldo Diaz, an Hispanic and first generation American, is the son of parents from Argentina and El Salvador.
Diaz (Democratic Party) ran for election to the Florida State Senate to represent District 25. He lost in the Democratic primary on August 18, 2020.
Here is a YouTube on Reinaldo when he was running for public office in the past.

Daniel Morgan Campaign web site

Daniel Morgan, an Hispanic and also a first generation American. He was a caseworker at Guatemalan Maya Center. Morgan is 27, and said he was prompted to run for office to "bring a voice and representation" for the scores of immigrant families.



This district race should not be about one's heritage. We are all Americans. Focus on that and the qualifications of each.

Richard Rowe Florida Candidate found dead

Florida Congressional Candidate Found Dead

An angry former congressional candidate in Florida has died after being downright vicious toward “anti-vaxxers.”

Richard Rowe, a truck driver who ran for Congress in Florida and lost, “passed away unexpectedly,” his family reported, not long after he received his injections from Pfizer-BioNTech.

Mr. Richard “Ricky” Rowe, who was only 41-years-old, was already (before the COVID hoax began), for lack of a better term, an unpleasant personality based on his Facebook and Twitter archives, according to the COVID BLOG. The injections exacerbated his anger and hatred, providing more evidence that these shots can change people’s personalities and psychological states of mind.

Twitter took Aim at War Hero running for U.S. Senate

Army veteran, GOP Senate candidate, accuses Twitter of flagging July 4 post of his salute in uniform

Retired Army Capt. Sam Brown sustained severe burns from an IED explosion in Afghanistan

An Army veteran and Republican Senate candidate is taking aim at Twitter for flagging his Fourth of July tweet for "potentially sensitive content."

Retired Army Capt. Sam Brown, a Purple Heart recipient and GOP challenger to Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., commemorated Independence Day by sharing a photo of himself offering a salute in uniform with the text "Freedom isn't free."

"On July 4, 1776, America was born. On July 4, 2021, we’re still the best country on this planet," Brown wrote.

Twitter put a warning on his Tweet!
