West Virginia Elects Its First Out Transgender Official
West Virginia elected its first out transgender official on Tuesday, a victory civil rights groups said would help bolster representation and political power for LGBTQ Americans.
Rosemary Ketchum won her bid for the Wheeling City Council on Tuesday and will represent the city’s Ward 3. When she assumes her role on July 1, Ketchum will be one of just four out LGBTQ officials in the state to hold public office.
“I’m incredibly excited and grateful. I know this was a close race,” Ketchum told The Wheeling News-Register on Tuesday, noting that while she didn’t campaign on her identity, the win “matters a lot.”

100% chance he only won because he's a transformer.

Ketchum works at the National Alliance for Mental Illness and is an active community organizer. “I believe that we must work WITH our community members to solve problems rather than without them or worse – against them,” she wrote on her campaign site. “But all too often, what we have seen is a lack of focus, a lack of drive, and most notably, a lack of presence regarding our elected community leaders.”
Mentally ill, Low T trans that lacks drive. Amazing.

A lot of this is our own fault. So many people have the attitude that their vote doesn't count, "I don't pay attention to politics it's all bullshite", "all options suck", etc. Many of their kids take this same approach while the left just keeps their marching orders.
Not just West Virginia either. It's our whole damn country. We are just giving it away.

I know we call liberalism a mental disorder, but this is a person that suffers from an actual mental disorder...sad!

Indeed. Wonder if turnout was the problem or they just really bought what this he/she was selling.
