This isn’t really a mental health related post, but I thought that it might be interesting to someone somewhere to find out how Warren County is voting in the primary.
One person I’m personally interested in watching with regards to the 65th district, is the race between Rapp and Gern for state house representative. Bothe are Republicans, but I’m hoping that Kathy Rapp wins re-election because she’s very passionate about improving the mental health system Gern has been spending most of their campaign trying to discount Rapp, and basically slinging mud, so I don’t know much about what Gern really stands for. Kathy on the other hand has been very public about things she’s been working on and also things she has accomplished while she has been in office, which include support for Millitary Vets, the elderly, disabled, and also has spearheaded a push to try and get a morotorium done on mental illness among inmates. She’s very family oriented, and from what I’ve seen seems to advocate for the underdog.
My interest in Kathy Rapp is one reason I posted this, but I’m sure everyone has their own views on things, which is cool.
