Political office candidacies
Today’s the day when we learn whether Dannel Malloy, mayor of Stamford (CT, US) who also happens to have overcome Learning Disabilities, will win a primary election in Connecticut and become the demoncratic party candidate for govenor. We covered Mr. Malloy’s candidacy in May of this year here.
I don’t think I would vote for or against a candidate simply because he or she had Learning Disabilities. The decision should be predicated on my opinions about the opposing candidates’ positions on issues. In the abstract, though, if all other things were equal, I suppose I’d probably vote for someone with Learning Disabilities. What do you think?
Look for coverage of the election in these sources:
