[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s a lot not to like about how SW had conducted her campaign. From complaining vociferously about being expected to comply with the Hatch Act, to taking down an opponent that she had a personal beef with, to all the drama with her campaign manager (pesky rules again!), the red flags are waving. [/quote]

Yeah, she either truly doesn't understand the Hatch Act or pretends not to. I'm not sure which is worse since she's a government lawyer and should definitely know better. Also, she did Terron Sims really dirty. [/quote]

What did she do to Terron Sims? Also what happened with her campaign manager? Just trying to understand so that I can make a more informed choice. [/quote]

Her close supporters spread the rumor far and wide that Terron was the one who reported her for violating the Hatch Act. Not just spread the rumor, but held up signs at public meetings (with her sitting right there)- that sort of thing. Later his wife outlined exactly why he wasn’t the one who outed her, with receipts and everything.

The campaign manager continued working as a precinct captain for the Democratic Party at the same time that she was SW’s manager. SW is not a candidate endorsed by the Arl County Democratic Party. When she was asked to step down as precinct captain for the duration of the campaign she was OUTRAGED, and let it be known, very publicly, that she had been done wrong.

I really don’t understand the mindset behind all of this drama, or the sure conviction by these people that the rules shouldn’t apply to them.[/quote]
