Still say party zealots get candidates elected...ranked-choice voting would eliminate the extremists

Not just RI... look at the POTUS candidates. That's the main reason we're so divided as a nation... mostly zealots vote in primaries and they elect the extreme candidates to further their agenda. Wish more people would realize this.

Ashley Kalus won't say if she wants Donald Trump to run for president again in 2024
Democrat Dan McKee says Joe Biden should run for re-election
ARE THESE TWO ARE ONLY CHOICES???? Ugh

Ashley Kalus wants to stop the utility rate increase... by doing so, Rhode Island Electric would lose money. How long until they close and leave RI if they're not making a profit? Rates are going up across the country and the world. The increase sucks, but it can't be ignored or overruled... nothing is free. Kind of ironic a GOP candidate does not understand how a free market works.

No easy answer... between the Russia BS, OPEC and the Energy Companies record profits, there's no way around it. The governor can't stop a free market increase. Even if she found away to reduce the cost to consumers, they'd have to find the funds to pay for it. Car tolls and higher taxes are coming
