Re: “Sanders Endorsement Nets Pearson $60K for State Senate Bid”
Joe, actually it was Republican Skip Valley who set the record a few years ago spending over $100k. Recent challengers have come in around $40k. There are 139,000 residents in the 6-member district which is a lot of people to reach. If I'm successful and am still in the Senate when redistricting comes up (2021) I'd be pleased to work with you to split up the district. 6 members is too big. As for how I will feel if I am able to build on Bernie's endorsement and get elected - I will do my best to stand up for working families as I have in the House. It never occurred to me to doubt why voters picked me, I assume they simply agreed with the issues I prioritize.

Re: “WTF: What Would Make Silverware Magnetized?”
Magnetic silverware is only found at restaurants and I think it has to do with a big magnetic ring they sometimes put at the top of the trash bin near the dishwasher station. This prevents silverware from being thrown out which actually happens a lot. Silverware gets saved from the trash by attaching to the big magnet. Getting attached to the magnet passes along some magnetic properties.
