Bonnie was pretty much the unofficial guest of honor at the Democrat "June Jamboree" at the Wharfinger Building. Kind of awkward for me, as I told Bonnie I was running against her during Mike Thompson's event about a month ago. I have had a few people ask me to consider not running for Supervisor and maybe run for Eureka City Council or Harbor Commissioner. I have been the only Democrat to run against Bonnie in the past, but now there would be 4 Demo's in the race! Crazy.
As with everything else in my world, I must compare this to the real life drama of softball. You know that guy you play against that you just can't stand? He can hit homers and play short like no ones business and you would just love to beat them? And all of the sudden he contacts your team and now you have to play with them? It takes awhile to adjust, but they end up making your team stronger. So, I guess I am on a "wait and see" stage.
I like Bonnie, but I have been vocal about the Supervisor seat not being a "career" job. Maybe I am wrong. She has done things that I disagree with, but she has also done much that I agree with.
I know this is a non-partisan race, but I still feel people more often than not look to a person's party affiliation.

The seat should not be a career seat and don't let anyone talk you out of running.
Who says it is not suppose to be a career seat? Only anonymous says so.
Harry Pritchard: served four terms (16 years) on the Board before retiring- just saying
Wow, first people are switching parties for your endorsement and now they are afraid of you being in the race. BTW, you may want to learn the difference between fill and feel if you are going to grace out board of supervisors with your "big tent" philosophy.
Opps.
Carol, if you don't really have anything to add, be quiet.
Richard, you should run. You are a good man and would try your best to have transparent government. I would support you!
Why should she be quiet? To many times there are anons on here with nothing to say other than to flame or be a troll. And her comment on pritchard was at least pertinant to the post. And she puts up who she is.
Slightly off-topic, but still on local politics:
Republican Crustaceans continue to defend Eureka’s cock-eyed elections system at the expense of everyone else.
You can help by showing up tonight and letting them know a hundred grand is too much to run for city council. The meeting is at the Wharfinger at 6:30. Three council members are needed to place this on the ballot, then the public can decide if they want Hannaford & Hannah, Inc. or neighborhood democracy.
Who cares Carol if someone else served 16 years.
This should not be a career seat.
There are x # of PEOPLE in the race. PEOPLE, not PARTY! For Christ's sake, who the hell cares what party they are. It only matters because YOU GUYS make it an issue.
If you vote for someone just because of what party they are, you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
And if you are going to decide every issue on party lines, there is no point in you even showing up for work. Just elect the guy, and send him home. One every issue you can fill in his vote for him, because you know EXACTLY how he will vote. Why waste money on a salary for these people?
If it is really all about party, then only the campaign matters, and the team that wins gets to make all the decisions. Is that really what you want?
Yes, Rose, that's what we want.
Well put Rose. I am a registered Republican but I vote for both parties. I came from the Bay Area and I thought that the disdain for opposing viewpoints and the general liberal agenda was prevalent down there but wow.....it is a lot worse up here. Any reference to a Republican is accompanied by some vitriolic remark, such as the anon below referring to Republicans as crustaceans. Why is that so? I don't agree with many of the ideas that eminate from the progressive agenda but I certainly respect the right to have them.
There seems only one issue. Richard are you strong enough see the truth? If so then you must be the hot poker to thrust deep into the two rotten,swollen boils that now control the thrown of power. Drain the puss and bile that spoils our county. Stand up and support either Jeff or Virginia and put this cancer out of "our" misery.
7:16, A little melodramatic, perhaps even over the top. But true, oh so true.
7:16pm-What eloquence. I wish that I had the command of the english language you have harnessed.
Which two?
Tom Hannah and Peter Hannaford would be crustaceans if they were commies--a couple of old crabs.
Which two? How about three? Bonnie, Jeff and Virginia. I've had all of Virginia and Jeff that I can stand, and Bonnie has been in there way too long. Lets get some new people in there.
Come on people. Which two? Do I have to spell it out for you? It's so simple that even a progressive could get it.
I'll speell it out for you ... they ALL suck!
Big Rich is not a winner, he is a weiner.
Put him in a weiner eating contest and then he will be a winner.
Another in your face issue is that Wiggins is wiggin out and may just have to quit. How'd you numb-nuts like to have to kiss the ass of the Bon Bon if she got that seat of power. Richard the dragon slayer,will you come to save the day?
"I'll speell it out for you..."
Incorrectly, of course.
