In the latest edition of "Nesi’s Notes," Ted Nesi delves into the evolving political landscape of Rhode Island. He highlights Ashley Kalus’s recent surge in visibility, marked by a significant television advertisement campaign that has garnered attention from both political insiders and the media. Kalus positions herself as a candidate focused on education reform, advocating for increased teacher salaries and expanded school choice options for parents. She also supports the legalization of recreational marijuana, opposes the Superman building deal, and favors maintaining current gun laws. However, she remains non-committal on issues such as income tax rates, the future of the Zambarano hospital, and right-to-work legislation. Notably, Kalus has yet to engage with Rhode Island’s former GOP governors, including Don Carcieri, Linc Almond, and Ed DiPrete. This unexpected media presence has raised eyebrows among Democrats, who now recognize the potential challenge she poses in the upcoming November elections. The central question remains: which Democrat will face Kalus in the gubernatorial race? (wpri.com)
