This race got really, REALLY tight in the last few weeks (none of the other races statewide were really even close to this tight).

Stefanowski was the CFO for A SWISS BANK (UBS) - that point wasn't bandied about nearly enough, IMO.

He also was the CEO (up through 2017) for Dollar Financial Corp. - a BIG company who specializes in payday loans, pawn shops, etc.

In Canada - their payday loans have interest rates up to and exceeding 570.00%! Absolutely disgusting.
