Long time reader, sometime commenter, rare writer here, but I wanted to share this information. I live in southeast North Dakota and a friend of mine is running for the ND House in district 44 (which is the north part of Fargo). His name is Joshua Boschee....He is the first openly gay candidate to compete for the ND legislature and is running an amazing campaign. He has been profiled by local news and has appeared often to discuss issues that are important to progressives. He is endorsed by the Victory Fund and is running on the ND Dem-NPL ticket (naturally).
Here is one of his campaign events...good listening!

Here is the most recent spot from a local station, posted to Gay Politics and other sites as well:

Joshua's campaign is working hard, if anyone is interested in throwing him some help, here is ActBlue link:

Let's show him a little Daily Kos love and help him start changing the ND landscape!
Thanks! (and i hope this is a decent enough second diary!)
