I received a phone survey the other day asking my opinion of different people who may run for state assembly. After some preliminary questions, the survey focused on Josh Becker, including his background, and different issues that his campaign might focus on, asking me which would be most compelling. I guess climate change won.

I don't begrudge him doing research, but I don't feel too optimistic about his true legislative priorities, since this was just one of about six that the researcher asked about.

Wish I had taken notes. It would have been interesting to see which ones did not make the cut.
