Wedding limo crash 20 dead in upstate NY

Source: CBS News

NEW YORK — Police said Sunday that 20 people were killed in a two-vehicle crash on Saturday in upstate New York.

The Albany Times Union reported a limousine was carrying a wedding party when it crashed at the "notorious" intersection of State Route 30 and State Route 30A in the town of Schoharie, about 25 miles west of Albany. Photos from the scene show a white stretch SUV entangled in trees off the side of the road.

State police said the crash was reported just before 2 p.m. on Saturday. The Times Union, citing local officials, reported that the limo sped down a hill and crashed into bystanders at a nearby country store. It's unclear whether any or all the victims were riding in the limo.

See if you can pick out Stephen Miller

Article by a 3rd grade classmate. Look at the class photo of sweet smiling faces, one stands out. One looks like he just impaled a frog or set a kitten on fire. Creepy.

What is with CD-06?

For 20 years I’ve wanted to flip this seat. Patty Wetterling, El Tinklinberg, Jim Graves all lost to GOP Bachman or Emmer. Does GOP run stealth candidates as DFL to keep it red? Am I being paranoid? Now the only “DFL” opponent to Tom Emmer is Ian Todd and it seems he’s not even trying. I’ve written to him about his lukewarm candidacy and got a vague response. I wish Al Franken would run, but that’s a fantasy.
Frustrating, with the right candidate it could be blue again.
