Well here in my state of PA. we elect governor this Nov. 2018. As with most candidates that run for office they say one thing on the campaign trail and turn a 180 when elected. Current incumbent Tom Wolfe(D) does not want firearms taken away from those that use medical marijuana. You see under Federal law it is illegal even tho at least 11 states have made provisions for medical marijuana. I think with this stance he is pandering to the marijuana crowd and the Second Amendment crowd. Last year early in the year he signed that one can hunt with a semi rifle but the Game Commision put a limit to only small game. This was quite the surprise as he is just like the rest of his party anti-gun but with that signing he looks good to the gun owner that hunts. To me, he thinks this will help get him votes. I'll put the link to an article about this. So I ask those of you that have upcoming elections this Nov. Anyone of your candidates doing any pandering?? wesa.fm/post/wolf-we-wont-take-guns-away-medical-marijuana-users#stream/0

Un fortunately most of our gubernatorial candidates pander to the pot group and the Latinos legal or otherwise and animal "rights" group. We actually had a county supervisor claim he was elected to represent the salmon.

That sounds about right . . . everything in Sacramento smells fishy to me.

Larry, it doesn't just smell fishy it is fishy from the very local level on up! I'm try'n to catch as many as I can, almost got the city manager but he resigned, to be with his husband, before I could build a strong enough case.

Give me a place to stand and a long-enough lever, and I will invariably break the lever.
