Voted for her 2 years ago to get rid of that DINO Joe Crowley. Very proud that I voted for her again this year against a DINO in the primary, and again for her in the general election.

I just hope that when redistricting time comes around, she is still my rep to congress.

He had this opponent who spent oodles of money and had signs all over town. Castro held his one and only campaign rally on Monday in front of a freak'n Walgreens...yes, a Walgreens. It consisted of Joaquin, Tom Perez and whoever could get their butt down to the thing. They stood on a street corner and waved at people and held up signs.

Joaquin had signs that were perpetually falling down.

I think I received a few campaigns emails and texts from him, but they were usually peppered with campaigns for other candidates. (Like: Please support my friend _______)

Castro is ahead by 70,000 votes out of 240,000 cast.
