When I first wrote about the fast growing Frye for Board of Supervisors FB group, I checked the Re-elect Roberts group and it only had 52 members. I am guessing they took notice that they were a very small measly FB group and started recruiting former staffers and party insiders to grow quickly.

Now the group has grown by nearly 200 members which is a good thing for Roberts but I took a look at the larger member list and saw very few young members which is an indication of a good group of volunteers eager to walk for candidates in hopes of landing internships or entry level jobs. I did see four young members of the group but two of them were staffers, another was a brother to the staffer, and the last one was a former intern.

Eh.

Interestingly the page lists his educational background and his date of birth! I didn’t realize he was born 25 years before my parents were born! He graduated from high school in 1960. He makes me feel very young. If Roberts wins re-election for what is expected to be his final term, we can expect him to be 72 years old when he leaves office. That is pretty old but he looks like he is in good shape. Kudos to Roberts for staying in shape and looking younger than he is. But he needs to hide all that age and education question, makes him look too old and voters aren’t always necessarily interested in what year their candidate was born or when they graduated from high school.
