19-year-old Fmr. Candidate for KS Governor may have just won a State House seat

[NewYorkExpress]

A soon-to-be seated Kansas lawmaker has had a temporary anti-stalking order issued against him in court at the request of a former opponent’s campaign manager, who said he sent her harassing messages, came to her home twice and tried to get her evicted.

State Rep.-elect Aaron Coleman, a 20-year-old Democrat from Kansas City, Kansas, will face a video hearing Dec. 16 in state district court in his home of Wyandotte County to determine whether the temporary order stays in place. The temporary order, issued by a judge Friday, orders Coleman not to communicate “in any manner” with Brandie Armstrong, also of Kansas City, Kansas, or follow her or come “on or around” her home or job site.

This guy is why the minimum age for any elected office should be at least thirty.

How does someone manage to be so awful in every way possible?

No it shouldn't.

What a dumb post. This guy isn't representative at all of young people.

Please don't lump us all in with this distasteful individual.

I used to think he wasn't that bad.

I have changed my mind.


His district is right across the river from me, too. Ew.

[Beet]

So people actually voted him in? How did he do? Was there even any underperformance at all? LOL. Voters just don't care.

D-Aaron Coleman - 66.5%
Stan Frownfelter (Write-In) - 22.3%
Kristina Smith (Write-In) - 11.3%

Frownfelter is the incumbent he beat in the primary by 14 votes. Dunno how Biden did here (probably very well) but yeah, voters really don’t care.

Well, keep in mind that this seat was literally uncontested in both the primary and general in 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018. According to the ballot, it was this year too. The voters are used to just filling in the one bubble that's there and then moving on.

Can't this guy just go to school?

Obama 61-37

Kelly 60-31

LOL.

[bagelman]

Willing to bet that he wouldn't lost to Frownfelter if his name wasn't alphabetically higher than his and, from a middle schooler perspective, Frownfelter wasn't such a silly name.

But anyway, expel him immediately.

Coleman’s coattails will allow Laura Kelly to hold the KS-Gubernatorial seat.

Because voters are stupid. See: Every California referendum.

Poor guy.

[𝕭𝖆𝖕𝖙𝖎𝖘𝖙𝖆 𝕸𝖎𝖓𝖔𝖑𝖆]

I have the bad feeling that the Aaron Coleman saga, and precisely the Aaron-Coleman-abuses-other-people saga, will continue apace for the following two years.
Good Lord. He is my age, he is so awful, and he's now even actually been elected State Representative. What an anti-hero. Every time I check this thread it gets worse.

Wtf what a creep

[Born to Slay. Forced to Work.]

The moral of this whole terrible story is that local elections are important and how much the media needs to pay attention to local elections

[Calthrina950]

This "man" is actually younger than me, and the details of what he's accused of are horrifying. Shame on the voters of his district for having elected him in spite of these allegations.

[brucejoel99]

F**king Republicans, I guarantee you that the only reason that they're refusing to expel him is because they'd rather continue to see him be a pain in the ass for Kansas Democrats these next 2 years.

[Roll Roons]

Across the country, is there anyone in public office who is as bad a person as Coleman? I honestly can't think of one. Not even MTG.

I mean, Lauren Boebert may have collaborated in an attempt on the lives of Congress and the Vice President, but it's definitely a short list.
