On this episode of The Gap, Tammy and Althea spend some time questioning Willamette Week's election endorsements. The criticism of Jo Ann Hardesty seems to boil down to that "she's mean," while the Willy excuses Rene Gonzalez's flouting of campaign finance law as a "stumble" and his unapologetic endorsement of anti-LGBTQ school board candidates as merely "careless." They've published misleading information in opposition to Portland Measure 26-228, the charter change amendment, and Multnomah County Measure 26-231 which explores giving the vote to non-citien residents. Stay sharp out there folks!

Then, we ask our listeners to ACKNOWLEDGE THE WIN COLUMN. What are some wins you've had lately? We hear from folks about everything from eye surgeries to delivery driver appreciation to fiber art festivals. Thank you to all of our callers!
