Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : On Friday, attention turned to Facebook posts, by state House of Representatives candidate Tarshire Battle, that appear to defend religious exemptions for COVID-19 vaccines and a "One Nation Under God" ad by Hobby Lobby, the craft store that in 2014 convinced the US Supreme Court to strike down Affordable Care Act contraception mandates on religious freedom grounds.
49% : Spokeswoman Camilla Pelliccia said the co-op decided to challenge Alzate because of her support for House Speaker K. Joseph Shekarchi, a Warwick Democrat who she said "opposes urgent progressive priorities including raising taxes on the rich, passing bold Green New Deal legislation, and addressing our state's severe and accelerating housing crisis."
