Show/Hide This Week's ScuttleButton Answer
Phil Burton for Congress — The longtime leading liberal voice in Congress, a Democrat from San Francisco first elected in 1964.
I Like “Matty” Nilsen for Freeholder — 1971 Republican from Elizabeth, N.J.
Levin A Senator to Be Proud Of — Democrat Carl Levin represented Michigan in the Senate from 1979 until his retirement after 2014.
So, when you combine Phil + Matty + Levin, you kinda get …
Film At Eleven. That old expression from local TV news where the viewer was told to expect some interesting footage but they had to wait until 11 pm.
