Don’t forget Col. Chris Gibson who won in N.Y.

Sgt John Kreisel(who lost both legs in Iraq with the Minnesota Army National Guard) was elected to the Minnesota state legislature!

Sgt K

That was me posting about Sgt Kreisel.

Michael in MI

Wasn’t Blackfive’s Matt Burden running for State Legislature in IL? Did he win?

Michael in MI

Ah, yeah, I was just researching it and figured that must have been what happened (loss in Primary), since I didn’t see anything on Blackfive about it. A shame, as he would have been a good State Rep. Hopefully he’ll have a good shot in the future sometime.
