- This morning I filed a lawsuit against Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita for violating my first amendment rights as a journalist for barring me from his press conferences. @AGToddRokita indypolitics.org/shabazz-v-roki…
- One data point I am following today is turnout. Indiana has averaged about 58% over the last few elections. Anything over 60%, and life gets really interesting.
- The day I announced my Mayoral run, some of my D friends immediately went after old tweets and columns (which I expected). If the Ds want to argue old tweets vs the 20 people murdered in Indianapolis last month and the really bad potholes, bring it on! Happy to have the debate.
- It's official. We are now a candidate for Mayor of Indianapolis.
- I'm told by very reliable sources that there is polling (Non-Democratic) out there showing the race for Governor between @braun4indiana & @mccormickforgov is a statistical dead heat. The same goes for @AGToddRokita & @TheDestinyWells. And it was done by a reliable pollster.
- By this logic, I shouldn't take aspirin because every time I have to pick the cotton out of the bottle, I'm reminded of slavery.
- Indiana House passes bill banning transgendered athletes from participating in female sports. The vote was 66-30.
- I just joined my other fellow journalists with filing an open records request regarding the cost and who attended @AGToddRokita's trip last January to the southern border. I will keep you posted.
- After more than a decade my lovely Mother's fight against the effects of Alzheimer's ended today. She is in a better place and knowing her will not hesitate if she needs to and make a brief visit to tell me to stop talking.
- New polling shows the Indiana race for Governor and Attorney General are both dead heats. indypolitics.org/poll-wells-rok…
- If you don't want to wear a mask, because you feel it violates your rights, fine. But don't get upset when businesses exercise their rights and require you to have one before entering their establishments. Problem solved.
