question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Elaine Luria is Negative . The reason I raise this now is because weâve got a candidate seeking the Democratic nomination (and just named to the DCCCâs âRed-to-Blueâ list) in VA-02  Elaine Luria  who voted for Republican Scott Taylor both in the 2016 GOP primary AND in the 2016 general election against the Democratic nominee in VA-02. According to Patrick Wilsonâs report in the RTD (bolding added by me for emphasis):
â Elaine  doesnât make decisions just based on political party â  her  campaign manager said by email. âFaced with the options on the ballot   she  took a chance on fellow veteran Scott Taylor who promised to bring change and be something different  but he broke those promises.â
âLike many Democrats in our district   Elaine  voted against Randy Forbes in that primary because he had shown during his legislative career to be an extreme voice in Congress  particularly when it came to womenâs reproductive freedom  LGBT equality  and preventing gun violence â Luria campaign manager Kathryn Sorenson said by email.
âNow  after seeing the way that Scott Taylor has acted in Washington and the votes he has taken to create chaos in our health care system   Elaine  has decided to run against him.â
Back in January  I had actually asked  Luria  about  her  vote in the GOP primary  and  she  responded: âThat year  there was no Democratic primary for Congress and I wanted to have my voice heard on who was on the ballot.â I responded to  her  that âI would have voted for Mickey Mouse or something in that one.â I havenât heard a word from  her  since. LOL
At this point  I havenât chosen a candidate in VA-02  but itâs been between  Luria  and Karen Mallard  the only two serious contenders for the Democratic nomination  as far as Iâm concerned. But Iâve got to say  the news about  Luria  voting for Taylor really bugs me  for at least three reasons.
First off  I think that Taylor is going to have a field day with this. Already  Taylorâs spokesperson is responding gleefully to the RTD  âScott Taylor is the same guy he was in 2016 and has done everything he said he would on the campaign. The only reason  Luria  is running is because she was promised money by Nancy Pelosi to be another rubber stamp in D.C. The people of the 2nd district will see right through it.â Expect to hear a LOT of that type of language in coming months  and certainly if  Elaine Luria  becomes the Democratic nominee in VA-02. So yeah  I truly do not see how this will help  Luria  win the general election. To the contrary  I think it will hurt  her  that  she  voted not once but twice for the same guy  she  voted for less than two years ago.
So thatâs my âJim Webb testâ for Democratic candidates who used to vote Republican: can you explain  articulately and convincingly  why you used to vote Republican (or even serve in a Republican administration) but are now a Democrat? Regarding  Elaine Luria    she  very well might have such a case to make  but so far I havenât heard it. To the contrary  Iâve mostly heard about how  she  doesnât vote based on party (whatever that means  given the stark differences between Democrats and the Party of Sarah Palin  Ken Cuccinelli  Corey Stewart  E.W. Jackson  Donald Trump  etc.  etc.)  how  Taylor  supposedly wasnât what  she  expected  him  to be  etc.
On that latter point  my friend Josh Stanfield of Activate Virginia posted on  his  groupâs Facebook page this morning something that rings true to me: â Scott Taylor  was a member of the House of Delegates and had a partisan voting record in that body. When  he  ran for Congress in 2016  anyone interested in  his  politics or voting behavior wouldâve been just a few clicks away from discovering  his  opposition to pretty much every Democratic priority.â
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Davis is Negative . Davis challenged his conviction and sentence on the grounds that his confession was illegally obtained and that his trial in San Clara County  Calif.  was tainted by pretrial publicity.
 Marc Klaas  Polly's father  expressed frustration Monday that Davis' appeals were taking too long. He noted that Polly would be 28 now had she lived.
Davis' appeals were taking too long. He noted that Polly would be 28 now had she lived.
 "I have no doubt that this guy is going to outlive me " said Klaas  60.
 Davis has a constitutional challenge pending before the state high court. Once that is resolved  he can challenge his conviction and sentence in federal court.
 Assistant California Attorney General Ronald Matthias  who successfully opposed DavisDavis' appeal  said federal appeals could take 10 to 15 years.
 In writing for the court  Justice Joyce L. Kennard recounted DavisDavis' reaction when a jury found him guilty of Polly's murder.
 Davis "turned toward the television cameras in the courtroom and made an obscene gesture with both hands by extending his middle fingers " Kennard wrote. "He then winked his eye and blew a kiss."
 Davis kidnapped Polly from her bedroom at her home in Petaluma  Calif.  where she was having a slumber party with two other girls. Her mother and a younger half-sister were sleeping down the hall.
 Davis had a long and violent criminal record  and his history helped fuel voter support for a 1994 three-strikes initiative in California that required sentences of 25 years to life in prison for a third felony after two violent felonies.

no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Megan Barry is Negative . Nashville Mayor Megan Barry  has admitted that  she  had an extramarital affair with the former head of  her  security detail.
"I'm embarrassed  and I am sad  and I am so sorry for all the pain that I have caused my family and his family "  she  said at a news conference Wednesday. "I know that God will forgive me  but that Nashville doesn't have to. ... I hope that I can earn your trust back and that you will forgive me."
Barry has stated that  she  will not take leave or resign over the affair  as Nashville Public Radio reported. "I made a serious mistake  but this is not a tragedy "  she  said.
This comes at a politically sensitive moment for the mayor  as  she  tries to persuade the city's voters to endorse a $5.4 billion transit infrastructure plan. That measure will be voted on in a May referendum.
 Barry  has also recently faced personal tragedy —  her  only son died in July of a drug overdose.
 She  has denied improper use of taxpayer money during the affair with  her  security head  identified by the Tennessean as Metro police Sgt. Robert Forrest Jr.
