Regarding tomorrow’s election: As I listened to both Christopher Armenta and Sebastian Ridley-Thomas sharing their experiences and promises for the State Assembly seat for the 54th District, I was curious as to how someone as young as Mr. Ridley-Thomas would have the political know-how to meet and handle the challenges of this position?
Perhaps when time allows for him to earn his stripes, he then can have his turn.
Mr. Armenta's record of performance has proven that he is capable to sit in that seat.
Mr. Ridley-Thomas’s experiences as a politician cannot match those of Mr. Armenta's.
My question is how has Mr. Ridley-Thomas been able to secure the monies to finance such an expensive campaign?
I have received so many different flyers in the mail that I continue to question not only how, but who are supporting his political needs. Common sense tells me that a 26-year-old is not ready yet.
I do believe that a 49-year-old is ready. That candidate is Mr. Armenta.
