Media and So-Called Non-Partisan Organizations Act to Reelect Incumbents

A fairly big swath of the City of Seattle is in the 9th Congressional District since the 2011 redistricting took place, but somehow a local Seattle cable program could not bring itself to have any candidate forums or presentations about the coming August 5th primary regarding this U.S. representative election, despite that they had many programs about the 1st Congressional District representative primary, in which not a single part of Seattle is located in, in 2012.  The same is true for other supposedly non-partisan media outlets and organizations.  They have decided that it's better not to call too much or any attention to these 2014 elections than to have traditional, oriented-to-democracy discussions, debates and programs.  This is blatant, partisan incumbent protection.

Our Washington State Lieutenant Governor Candidate Blog

There will be a special place to write about the Lieutenant Governor 2016 election, which I'm in, and specifically Washington state issues and matters, generally, even when the election is over.  All of the recent Lieutenant Governor posts on FW Politics  will be carried over to the new blog, Washingtonian.   I am proud to be a natural-born American and a Washingtonian, and I will need your vote to stand up for the Common Man in our state and our nation.   [Originally posted on Washingtonian on April 29, 2016; revised on May 26, 2016.]

Republicans Turning to Citizens Party In Droves

The Republican Party in the 9th District of Washington has been pleasantly surprised by the success of my coalition campaign to attract all parties and my common sense platform to fix the economy, turn America inward from the foreign wilderness and to keep a traditional outlook in political affairs.  They also like the fact that if I became a congressman, that I would not be a puppet of Wall Street, but a representative of Main Street.  They know that I am a true friend of their party, and they want somebody in the General Election that has a real chance of winning, not another Postma or Muri that can only attract intra-party votes and has no real chance of succeeding in the radically redrawn New 9th District, especially with Basler, as the Seattle Times put it, hardly waging a campaign.   -- Mark Greene, candidate for Congress, Congressional District 9, Citizens Party Note:  I just found out that a prominent Ron Paul website has been playing up Ad...
