Wonderful Media Bias in AZ Lawmaker Indictment
Check this story and please tell me what party the indicted lawmaker is from:
TUCSON - A former Arizona lawmaker has been charged with identity theft, forgery and fraud in connection with signatures on his nominating petitions when he ran unsuccessfully for the state House last year.
The Pima County Attorney’s Office indicted John Kromko earlier this month on nine counts of identity theft, nine counts of forgery and one count of fraudulent scheme.
Prosecutors say Kromko forged the signatures and used the addresses and other identifying information of more than 20 people in his nominating petitions.
They say he also forged the signatures of the people who supposedly passed the petitions.
Kromko, 68, organized the unsuccessful initiative drive in 2007 to limit new water connections and use of effluent and ran unsuccessfully for state House District 27 against incumbent Democrats Phil Lopes and Olivia Cajero Bedford last year.
Kromko has been active in local politics for 40 years and served in the state Legislature from 1976-1990.
He ran unsuccessfully against incumbent Democrats, but it does not specifically mention that he IS A DEMOCRAT.
Versus the first two lines of this story last year:
TUCSON - Members of the U.S. House will be sworn in Tuesday as the 111th Congress convenes, but Rep. Rick Renzi won’t be among them.
The Arizona Republican has ended a three-term career beneath the same cloud of suspicion that surrounded him during much of his last year in office, under federal indictment and facing a criminal trial in March.
How do you like that? Tell me that this isn’t blatant bias.
