Hey HUD, is this the kind of partisanship in the Hatch Act you meant?
MSV hasn’t verified the details but it’s not a rumor either. It’s a day before the partisan primaries and there is a “rally” scheduled for later tonight at Mama Johnson Field.

Update: A source close to Carmelo Garcia called to say the HHA residents were indeed holding a rally but it was their rally not Carmelo Garcia’s. In addition, the unnamed rally to be held on federal property may actually feature a visit by the one and only HHA Executive Director Carmelo Garcia who happens to be a candidate for partisan office tomorrow.
Let’s not of course confuse a rally of HHA residents on federal property with an election tomorrow starring their Executive Director, Carmelo Garcia.
MSV inquired if this HHA rally was part of a spontaneous display by the HHA residents but the source was not at Mama Johnson Field. Maybe someone with an iPhone or other photographic device will obtain photos from the location.
No doubt this will be most reassuring to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
