You’d hardly know it from reading the papers or even the blogs, but there’s still a special election next Tuesday in East Boston: the 1st Suffolk state rep seat, recently vacated by now-Senator Anthony Petruccelli.
We’ve endorsed Gloribell Mota in that race, and we hope she wins. Bernstein’s got a piece up on her in this week’s Phoenix, which is worth a read.
One of Bernstein’s points is that a quick cash infusion might help Mota out. So let’s see if we can pull that off. Here’s Mota’s donation page. I’ve just chipped in a starter contribution, and I will match the next $100 from BMG readers. As usual, let me know either in the comments or via email how much you put in.
Incidentally, my Spanish is rusty, but I wonder whether Bernstein’s is rustier. Shouldn’t it be “Vota para mi”? (Rather than “voto”?)
but I agree with you.
JFK claiming that he was a jelly doughnut in Berlin š
Remember this?

As for the jelly donut, that wasn’t JFK in Berlin. It was Larry Craig in Minneapolis.
This is crazy. Why are we backing Mota when she has no chance in this election?
We really should back Dem-For-Healey Carlo Basile, right? You've said your piece on this, paulas. Anything else to add?
I will say it again next Tuesday when ALL 6 of my family members vote for Carlo. You have no voice next Tuesday because you are an outsider, just like the majority of Mota and Drago supporters.
