PM POLITICS

By Abdul Hakim-Shabazz

It’s been a long day and I’m really tired, but I wanted to post these few items before bed.

The latest poll of the Presidential, Gubernatorial, 7th District and 5th District Congressional races are showing some interesting results. The poll conducted by Howey Politics Indiana and Gauge Market Research of shows Hillary and Barack basically tied. Jill with a big lead over Jim and Andre and Danny doing better than Woody, David Carolene and John.

Jill got a letter from angry lawyers telling her to stop using images of schools their client designed in her commercial. It wasn’t Jim’s firm, but the firm of Schenkel and Schultz. I thought the taxpayers owned the schools, not the firms who built them. This will be fun to watch.

Carl, Jim and Mike want to rewrite the state’s fetal homicide laws in the wake of the shooting that killed the unborn twins of a bank teller in Indianapolis. Under the current law the fetus has to be viable outside the womb. This would change that, however the state would still have to prove the defendant knew the woman was pregnant.
