The MPRI is now a recognized party. Congrats!

This morning, the Rhode Island Board of Elections confirmed that the Moderate Party of Rhode Island (MPRI) has presented in excess of 23,589 certified signatures of registered voters in Rhode Island, qualifying the MPRI to become a recognized political party for the 2010 elections. The MPRI can now operate as a peer alongside the Democratic and Republican parties in Rhode Island.

The MPRI is on the verge of making a difference in Rhode Island politics.

The MPRI is well on its way to being recognized as a legitimate 3rd party option in RI. Their moderate and responsible stance will stand to attract unenrolled independents as well as disenchanted members of both of the two large parties in the state.

Stupid ponderings by the ‘elf: Troopers

Why is it that in places like Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, or Virginia, there are State Troopers/Police? Since they are commonwealths, shouldn’t they be Commonwealth Troopers or Police?
