Thanks to Nancy for pulling this out of the News Journal.…
Matt Denn, the outgoing commissioner who’s running for lieutenant governor, raised the profile of the office, changed regulations and got laws passed that affect ordinary voters.
This was not an endorsement but was offered as “background” for its piece on the Insurance Commissioners office.. Anyone who remembers Donna Lee Williams, must understand what an improvement these last four years have been…
But back to the point… One candidate who is running for Lieutenant Governor RAISED THE PROFILE OF THE OFFICE, CHANGED REGULATIONS AND GOT LAWS PASSED THAT AFFECT ORDINARY VOTERS…
The other, wasted his time trying to play politics to stop offshore wind from dropping yours and my utility costs…. The other wasted his time by blaming the teachers union for all our educational problems, even after Kilroy told him directly that was a very tiny piece of the problem.. The other wasted his time promoting Open Government Bills, knowing full well they would never get past the desk drawer of the man HE put in as the Senate President Pro Tempore…
So who is better? The one the News Journal calls out for exemplary behavior… or the one who twiddled his thumbs…..
