Wilmington lawmaker won't run for reelection after anti-Asian slur in email draws backlash

Rep. Gerald Brady will not seek reelection when his term ends in 2022, he said Monday. The announcement comes after a week of criticism and calls for his resignation, after Delaware Online/The News Journal published an email sent by Brady using an anti-Asian racial slur.

The comments from Brady came from an email exchange with an out-of-state advocate regarding legislation intended to protect sex workers.

“Is the dude basically saying, if we provide free [sex acts] for Uncle Pervie there will be few rapes and chink broads will be shipped in CONEX containers to the Port of Wilmington??” Brady replied from his official government email address.

That June 27 email was intended for a private citizen Brady knows, asking if they could read and summarize the study, said Drew Volturo, spokesman for the House Democratic Caucus. Instead, Brady hit reply and emailed the original sender.

1. Good riddance.

If Delaware was not so heavily democratic, that asshole would likely be a republican.
