Show/Hide This Week's ScuttleButton Answer

Goode / Democrat for Mayor— Wilson Goode was elected mayor of Philadelphia in 1983, the first African-American to do so.

We Won’t Go Back / NOW / Baltimore Chapter / We Will Fight Back —Button from the National Organization for Women.

I’m for Nixon, Bennett, Lloyd, Buehner, Etc. & HUNT Of Course —OK, so we know it’s a 1968 Richard Nixon coattail from Utah, with fellow Republican candidates Wallace Bennett for Senate, Sherm Lloyd for Congress, and Carl Buehner for governor.  But who’s Hunt?

Teen-Age Republican / TARS —GOP button from 1966.

So, when you add Goode + Will + Hunt + Teen, you kinda get …

Good Will Hunting.  The 1997 movie where Robin Williams won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.  We tragically lost Robin Williams earlier this month.

And the randomly-selected winner is … Matthew Jetzt of Freehold, N.J.  Matthew gets the coveted Political Junkie button.
