I hope to be Cheri is winning but yet again the democratic partisan will find ways to rigged game for them.

Thanks for the update Lee, I hope Cheri launches her own independent investigation (preferably with ACLU support) so the so-called “Democratic” Party doesn’t try to use that against her. From what I know of her, I think she will. She’s a fighter.
