Berke, Brock win primaries
The results are in, and the funding leaders also came out the vote winners. The Democrat and Republican who will face each other in the November 15 special election are Andy Berke and Oscar Brock, respectively. I look forward to learning more about these candidates' means of representing this district.
Congratulations are due the other candidates as well, as all ran good races without resorting to much negativity. (Unfortunately, the same can't be said for a few vocal supporters.)
Republican Mark Albertini conceded to the winner tonight, stating that he is grateful for those who voted for him in the primary. “I count it an honor that those of you who chose me to lead you and represent you in the affairs of our State government, showed your support by voting for me. To those of you who contributed to my campaign, I am grateful.…I will now support Mr. Brock in his efforts to win the District 10 Senate seat in any way I can.”
