[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't get all the hate on Symone. She didn't assume it was OK. She asked. And was told yes. And proceeded accordingly. You can say she should have pushed back more and assumed she was given bad advice, but that seems a stretch to me. Why all the vindictiveness about this? [/quote]

Because it seems fishy....she had to have asked in a very narrow way to get a ruling like that, because the answer is obvious....and [b]once OSC got the facts, they weighed in accordingly[/b].

And then there is her blaming everyone else and not taking any responsibility [i]at all[/i]. It is very off putting. [/quote]

[b]Once the OSC heard repeatedly from another candidate who was not satisfied with the answers and threatened to escalate, the OSC changed its ruling.[/b]

I wasn't going to vote for the badgerer anyway, but the fact that his strategy is to knock out another candidate rather than become a better candidate himself? Not a good look.[/quote]

Whoever made the report was obviously correct that she was violating the Hatch Act, so I'm ok with someone "ratting" someone out for violating the law. I'm still not convinced it was only one person, given how blatant a violation this was and how many ppl in Arlington actually know Hatch Act restrictions, and I'm still not convinced we know the true identity/ties of who made the complaint(s). Will the OSC release the name(s)? She and her campaign seem to be making these accusations of "another candidate" who "harassed" her, but without any proof of who it was and his/her motivations. Maybe the person is a stickler for the rules, which really isn't such a bad thing IMHO.

Agreed. I really can’t believe that grown adults (and supposedly law experts, at that) are upset that someone “told” much more than that someone else was attempting to skirt the law.

If Symone or her campaign volunteers were to rat out the rat, though, they would add hypocrisy to the growing list of reasons not to vote for her.[/quote]
