Phoenix councilwoman Laura Pastor drops out of congressional race
One of the leading Democratic names eyed to replace outgoing U.S. Rep. Ruben Gallego has dropped out of the race. Gallego is now vying to replace Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s seat.
On Friday, Phoenix councilwoman Laura Pastor announced that she withdrew her name from a lengthy list of contenders, citing health reasons.
This story demonstrates two things:
1. There's a dire need for editors. Even the two paragraphs/three sentences that I've quoted are poorly written.
"...[V]ying to replace Sen. Kyrsten Sinema’s seat"? Really?? That made it by someone?
2. It's early. People can still drop out of or enter races.
Pastor's withdrawal leaves Yassamin Ansari, another member of the Phoenix City Council, and Raquel Teran, a former member of the Arizona Legislature and a former chair of the Arizona Democratic Party, as the big "names" currently in the race.
