Gretchen's opponent has an edge because of name recognition. He is also supported heavily by the Republican party. Nick Wagner is very conservative, seems to be opposed to choice, supports the death penalty and is opposed to gun control. His last campaign against Swati Dandekar was extremely negative, depicting Swati in a deplorable manner. I had been friendly with Nick before that dirty campaign.
Gretchin is knowledgable, family-oriented, hard-working and very civic-minded. She will be a worthy successor to Swati for House District 36.
