  2. …beating out the actual liberal Tracy Emblem who had great labor endorsements.

    Busby lost in ’04, ’06, skipped ’08 (first time our district voted Dem for Pres in as long as I can remember — nice strategy dodging those coattails!), and now is back in ’10 now that our normally-deep-red district is sure to be all tea-baggy.  Maybe Emblem wouldn’t have had a chance, but at least it’d be a different show.

    What, me bitter?

  3. Salas picked up another net 100 votes or so.  She’s now ahead of the more moderate Vargas by over 400 votes.  This was probably the most important contested state legislative primary race this year.  

    Salas has been a very good vote on a wide range of issues, while Vargas was little more than a tool for the Insurance industry as well as an opponent of good environmental legislation.
