KelleyKramer's JournalAlabama Senate candidate Roy Moore's son is arrested for the ninth time
The Moore campaign said it was a "cheap political trick." I don't know of they meant that arrest #9 was the cheap trick and arrest #1 through arrest #8 were not cheap tricks.
Or maybe they meant that all nine arrests were cheap political tricks. But the other 8 cheap tricks were before Moore was running for Senate. So maybe Moore has over a half dozen political enemies who worked together over many years to coordinate their 'cheap political tricks' against Moore
ALSO! Moore said the sexual charges by four women were a 'cheap political trick' ... Soooo, apparently there is a rampant, widespread and years long conspiracy of cheap trickers working long and hard to drum up all manner of false charges against the God loving white man Mr Moore.
And just in case you don't know... down in Alabama, hunting on a baited field is really really looked down upon, it is considered a true sign that someone is a low down lying cheating scumbag
So there is THAT too! .................
Senate candidate Roy Moore's son is arrested for the ninth time
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/senate-candidate-roy-moore-son-arrested-ninth-time-article-1.3555021
The son of Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore has been arrested in Alabama on a misdemeanor charge linked to allegations of illegal hunting. Etowah County Sheriff's spokeswoman Natalie Barton tells news outlets 27-year-old Caleb Moore surrendered Monday on a charge of third-degree criminal trespass. He was accused of hunting without permission and hunting over bait last year. Barton says Caleb Moore was released on $1,000 bond.
Moore's campaign issued a statement calling the arrest a "cheap political trick."
The charge is related to Moore's November 2016 arrest for hunting without permission and hunting over bait, which are both misdemeanors. Barton said the land owner in that case signed for a warrant for trespassing.
This is the ninth time Moore has been placed in jail. He was arrested for drug possession in Troy in 2015. Those charges were dropped last year after he agreed to enter a pre-trial diversion program with the Pike County District Attorney's Office, court records show. He has also faced charges of driving under the influence in both Alabama and Florida, and three drug-related arrests in Baldwin, Pike and St. Clair counties in Alabama.
Roy Moore is facing Democrat Doug Jones in the special election for the U.S. Senate on Dec. 12. Moore is a former Alabama chief justice who's been removed from office twice.

WA State spcl election win gives Dems free hand to enact liberal policies across entire West Coast
Poised for West Coast Dominance, Democrats Eye Grand Agenda
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/04/us/washington-state-west-politics-democrats.html
SAMMAMISH, Wash. — It is the stuff of liberal fantasies: a vast, defiant territory, sweeping along the country’s Pacific coastline, governed by Democrats and resisting President Trump at every turn. A single election in a wealthy Seattle suburb on Tuesday could make that scenario a reality, handing the party full control of government in Washington State — and extinguishing Republicans’ last fragile claim on power on the West Coast. The region has been a rare Democratic stronghold on an electoral map now dominated by vast swaths of red, and Republicans’ only toehold on power there has been a one-seat majority in the Washington State Senate.
The prospect of such far-reaching autonomy for Democrats, who already hold all three governors’ offices as well as both houses of the legislatures in Oregon and California, has infused extraordinary energy into what might have been a low-key special election. The race is on track to draw more than $9 million in campaign spending, a record-breaking sum for Washington State. National environmental and abortion rights groups have mobilized, business associations and oil companies have poured in money, and a former vice president, Joseph R. Biden Jr., has intervened on the Democratic side.
-snip-
eading in the polls and anticipating victory, Democrats have sketched an aggressive agenda on issues where strong consensus appears to exist in the party, including new laws on gun control, contraception and environmental regulation. Ms. Nelson said she had met with the speaker of the Oregon Statehouse about enacting policy across state lines. The three states’ Democratic governors have spoken regularly about policy collaboration, and over the summer began coordinated talks on climate change with foreign heads of state.
Perhaps most ambitious of all, Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat, harbors dreams of enacting a muscular carbon pricing plan along with California, Oregon and officials in Canada. In an interview, Mr. Inslee said the special election in Eastside Seattle could open the way for broad action, including taxing carbon but also joint initiatives on energy efficiency, research and clean water. “We intend to make a full-scale effort in the next session of the Legislature if we win,” he said. “It will be a bell in the night, showing hope for the country, rejecting the Trump agenda of denying climate science.”

Anti Trump candidates become first Dems to EVER win these council seats!
This is now officially a Dem wave election, if we work hard and keep up the momentum 2018 could be a tidal wave election!
In historic win, Delco Dems take council seats

Pushing the message that a vote for them was a vote against President Trump, Delaware County Democrats out-polled Republicans in a County Council election for the first time in history, winning both seats up for grabs in an ultra-tight race.
With all but a few precincts reporting, Republicans conceded that incumbent David White and John Perfetti, a retired district judge, had been defeated by Democrats Brian Zidek, a medical reinsurance executive, and tech entrepreneur Kevin Madden. Republicans still control County Council with three of the five seats.
One of the country’s most powerful GOP machines ruled the county for more than a century. No Democrat had ever outpolled a Republican in the county for County Council. Democrats also swept the row offices.
“The Democrats made the race about Washington and were able to drive voters to the polls because of that,” said Andrew Reilly, chairman of the county GOP. “We have to move forward and jointly govern, and welcome [Democrats] into county leadership for the good of Delaware County.”

The county Democrats’ anti-Trump message resonated with Eva Thury, a 67-year-old registered Democrat who voted in Swarthmore. “I really hate Trump and all that he has done and all that he stands for,” said Thury, an English professor at Drexel University. “This is my way of sending a message.”
