Local Democratic Candidates

I was a life-long Democrat. But recently I have been troubled by some of the "Democratic" activities in Nassau County. I recently got my absentee ballot for the Democratic Primary for 4th District Congress. My first thought was to toss the ballot, but I realized my vote might do some good.

The Primary choices are Kathleen Rice and Kevan Abrahams. I used to respect Rice's work until the past year or so. But I looked up Kevan Abrahams and some caution flags went up.

So, I'm hoping you folks can provide some input for me. At this point, my only thought is to write someone in, just as a whimper against the machine- though I'm not sure who. I thought I'd pose this question in my "home-town" Long Beach Patch and possibly a couple of others nearby. I'll delete this post if it turns out to be a bad idea.

Thanks for any ideas. Radical thoughts are welcome, but no obscenities please.
