Queers United backs Transgender attorney seeking to upset anti-gay seat 


From Queers United blog,  this item about a transgender attorney seeking to defeat and win a legislative seat from an anti-gay rival:  

Brittany Novotny a transgender attorney and LGBT activist is setting her hopes on the legislative seat currently occupied by anti-gay Sally Kern. You might remember Kern for her remarks about "homosexuality being worse than terrorism" along with a slew of other radical statements such as blaming the economic downturn on gays and lesbians.


Ms. Novotny on the other hand is actually focused on the issues of constituents and seeks to create change not division within her district.

"We need a representative who values all families in the district, who is dedicated to bringing good jobs to Oklahoma, and who will work tirelessly to make sure our children are getting the best education in our public schools. I believe I have the experience, drive, and determination to do that."
-Brittany M. Novotny

The election set for 2010 is in a very conservative district, but if we can out seat an anti-LGBT politician with Ms. Novotny it would be a major not to mention sweet victory.
