I'm looking for the answers to last week's puzzles. Have you seen them?

Mandela Barnes, Rochelle Garza, and Maxwell Frost were featured in last week’s Sunday Puzzle.

Mandela Barnes, as many of you already know, is currently Wisconsin’s lieutenant governor, and is the Democratic candidate for the US senate seat currently held by Ron Johnson.

Ron Johnson is a terrible senator — one of the worst currently in the senate, and one of many who need to be defeated and replaced as soon as they’re up for re-election, which Ron Johnson is.

And Mandela Barnes would be a very good replacement. Here, for example, is a 2-minute video of how he stands on health care:

Mandela Barnes is very good on the issues facing our nation and the world. Here’s a link to Mandela Barnes’ campaign website, where you can learn more about who he is and what he stands for.

Rochelle Garza may not be as well known as Mandela Barnes yet, but she’s also a very good candidate to support. She’s running in Texas for the office of attorney general — an office currently held by Ken Paxton. And just as Ron Johnson is currently one of the worst senators in office, Ken Paxton is currently one of the worst attorney generals in office. He was very involved in efforts to overthrow the 2020 election results in order to keep Trump in power, and he’s been very involved in efforts to outlaw abortion and to punish anyone seeking an abortion or helping .

Rochelle Garza, in contrast, would make the kind of attorney general whom Texans (and the rest of us) need in that office:

Maxwell Frost is the Democratic candidate for congress in Florida’s 10th district. And since it’s a fairly safe Democratic district he is very likely to win the seat — which will make him, at age 25, the very youngest member of the house.

But Maxwell Frost is not new to politics. Maxwell Frost has been an activist working on good causes since he was 15 years old, back in 2012:
