Where the hell do these crazy f'ers come from?

That sure lowers my opinion of the school drastically.

yesterday?

Apparently he also recently moved into this district. The state senator where he used to live is Joe Bolckom. For those not from Iowa, Bolckom is much loved in his district.

I wonder if the DNC is aware? You might automatically think yes but I take nothing for granted nowadays. The last thing we need is another turncoat DEm.

have an intervention. Not sure exactly what they can do, but I am sure they are already aware.

Johnson county is home to the U of Iowa and pretty liberal with a strong Democratic Party.

to dem party vetting?? Yeesh. Republican running as a dem.
Not a single negative thing about trump on his twitter page.
Not many workable links on his webpage either.
But the donate button works fine!

His twitter is @dirthforiowa
Seems @IAstartingline is a dem acct for iowa announcing candidates. Maybe they should be informed.

When I was on the local central committee we would occasionally have candidates no one had ever heard of take out papers. But they would often fail in either getting signatures or some other aspect. I think the central committee can do some vetting at their next meeting. The ones that happened in my county never lasted until the next meeting.

There are 2 other candidates that seem to be pretty strong so I am guessing he won't last long.

That instills a little more confidence. Its scary though when there are so many people running, that someone will slip through the cracks.

I hope Johnson county voters will see through that.

that tried to do something similar 3 or 4 years ago.
My recollection is that they threw a big bunch of money (thousands I recall) behind their candidate for city council, which is non-partisan. The guy got crushed.

Who is the real eric? Because from all his various bios its not even clear what colleges he went to.

A friend and I from twitter power searched this guy. Hes a conservative and belongs to The Federalist Society. A group that would likely mentor him into running...as a dem.

We better be careful in 2018.

Thanks!

In fairness, twitter friend gets most of the credit tho...she found those links. I just presented it to her.

for red flagging him : )
