It's an odd situation because the two Republicans and the two Democrats that were in the primary runoffs last month are on the ballot for the special election. The postcard came from the Democrat (Eric Holguin) that won the runoff.

There isn't a lot of publicity about the race. I'm also not telling my brother about the election so that he won't cancel my vote.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
