I think Cheri Beasley was a candidate who was way more than qualified for the job, but I’m not sure her campaign was the strongest. I probably saw 100 Budd ads, for every 10 Beasley ads. The Budd ads of course mentioned nothing about what he stands for, just basically “Ohh, look the scary black lady. Vote for me instead.”
