please change my mind. i have not looked at his website so please educate me on his plans/policies.
i really don’t understand how people can justify dan mckee??? he literally provided ZERO specifics, details or plans about any of the topics- he only bashed his opponent and made claims. he is manipulative and uses convenient facts. his only claim to fame is the vaccination rate; does anyone even care about that????? do people really not care that he took a $5 mil deal over a $1 mil deal to help give him and his friends the $4 mil that could be used to disperse amongst workers. his defense on raising salaries of his cabinet saying we are going to “respect people running important positions” as if the RIPTA employees are not more important to the day to day life of rhode islanders??? how about the entire education segment was about RICAS scores from 6 months ago. nobody actually needs to know this data anymore because it’s useless and too old. the scores mean NOTHING for teachers now, maybe back in august. address the issue that RI schools cannot retain highly qualified teachers because the root of the public education issue is actually the lack of pay, support and respect which leads to teachers in high stress environments that leave the profession.
i think it is often forgotten that politicians are supposed to be public servants for the people. in many states, public servants like teachers and firefighters are often severely underpaid and are expected to dedicate their life out of the goodness of their hearts.
i am not saying ashley kalus is any better or worse but it just baffles me that people actually like this untrustworthy guy? is it because no one is better? how???????

Yes it's because of the two choices, he is better than the trump supporter.

It's so sad that that's basically the choice we have everywhere. No good candidates, just one likely to do the least damage.

Exactly. If you love the orange douche and his party of traitors, you'll love Kalus. Otherwise, regardless of how you feel about McKee, the choice is a no-brainer. McKee sucks, but he's better than the alternative, and it's not close.
