Senator Feinstein Dead


 Diane Feinstein, the longest serving female senator in our nation's history, died last night (Thursday, September 28th, 2023), she was 90.  Feinstein was elected to the senate from California in 1992.

A relative moderate, Feinstein was considered somewhat Conservative by some Democrats.  But considered Liberal by Republicans. The balance apparently worked in her favor.

Feinstein served as mayor of San Francisco in the wake of the assassinations of City Supervisor Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone.

I watched Feinstein speak and shook her hand many years ago at the Eastside Democratic Dinner.
