Rhee promises vote for Tuck...Oh, wait

Yup, ed deform queen Michelle Rhee is married to Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson. And naturally she supports Marshall Tuck's pro-charter/privatization agenda. But there's a catch...

http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article3325284.html

At a voter information event Monday night hosted by Indivizible, Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson’s African American community empowerment group, Michelle Rhee, the controversial education advocate and Johnson’s wife, encouraged attendees to support Tuck.

“Since Indivizible is a non-profit organization, we cannot tell you who to vote for,” Rhee told the crowd. “I am going to tell you who my husband and I will be voting for.”...

“He follows my advice on this one,” she said. “But we will both be voting for Marshall Tuck.”

Trouble is, Rhee can’t vote for Tuck, or any other candidate in California because she’s registered to vote in Tennessee, where her ex-husband and kids live.
