Ugh

The Democrats were supposed to do this.

In 2022, it made sense.  He was a decent enough Levy Court Commissioner and was in a three-way primary with crazy and another career politician whose incumbency had grown stale.  Letting the Republicans fight amongst themselves in SD16 made sense.

Fast forward two years to the redistricted seat's turn for reelection and Eric Buckson has been a disappointment.  Aside from his folksy charm masking the same old MAGA silliness, Senator Buckson is a tragically ineffective legislature, reduced to complaining on the sidelines about process.

Yet he remains unopposed.  The Kent County Democrats had until September 1st to find a Democrat with a pulse to do this, beyond the deadline for minor parties to nominate candidates.  They didn't, so here we are.

As an independent write-in candidate, I do not expect to win this election, but as shockingly useless as Eric Buckson has been, with his delusions of grandeur telling him he should be Governor like his father some day, and with his insistence on posting signs all over the place without even a candidate to oppose him, I have submitted the necessary documentation to become a declared write-in candidate for the 16th Senate District.

At least this way, he'll actually need the votes.

Write In "Will McVay" for Senate District 16.
