Local Candidate Arrested in Newport
Will Ricci of the Ocean State Republican has the scoop on a breaking news story involving a name very familiar in Rhode Island's blogosphere...
Thanks for noticing. I've also posted an update, since the Newport Daily News has also picked up on it as well (but I got it first!).
Considering who it is, it's certainly interesting. However, the timing is more than a little suspect if you ask me.
PS Speaking of candidates, has anyone noticed a problem with the Secretary of State's candidate database (like, it's not working at all)? Hopefully, it's temporary.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I'm SURE it's not his first arrest.
Posted by: Greg at July 15, 2008 10:10 AMIt took the Newport police a year to arrest this guy? That's a problem. Was he a threat to the public or not?

It looks like the police finally did something.

Guess the Bobby O Guide to Success with the Ladies won't be finding a publisher soon.
Hi Will,
The Secretary of State's site is working just fine. It's the Canvassing Authority in East Providence that's not working properly.
