More Bisexual Politicians Elected.
I'm glad/proud to say that actually all out bisexuals seeking state and national levels offices, not just Kyrsten Sinema, were elected to their respective positions.
Congratulations to Angie Buhl, Kate Brown, Micah Kellner, and JoCasta Zamarripa. I'm glad bisexual visibility is slowly, but surely, increasing. Let's keep it up!
Cheers!

First Bisexual In Congress
Congrats to Kyrsten Sinema, newly elected representative to the U.S. Congress from Arizona; she is also the first bisexual person to be elected to Congress.
Sinema's election comes as part of a major victory for LGBTQ, etc. rights. The November 2012 election saw three states legalize same-sex marriage, one state put a stop to a marriage amendment, the election of the first LGBTQ, etc. person (lesbian Tammy Baldwin) to the Senate, five openly gay people elected to the House of Representatives, and the first openly transgendered person elected to the New Hampshire state assembly.
Cheers!

Rounding Out CBD
Here are a couple more articles to round out your time celebrating Bi Pride Day.
First, a message and reflection on Bi Pride Day from Faith Cheltenham again, the President of BiNet USA, via the Advocate.
Second, good news for bisexual visibility in the congressional races in Arizona. Kyrsten Sinema (mentioned in a previous post) has won the Democratic primaries and will be running in the new 9th District of Arizona. You can check out her campaign here (note: this is not any sort of endorsement for Sinema, just giving out the information).
Cheers!

Openly Bisexual Politicians
Check out this post from Bialogue highlighting six state officials in the U.S. who are openly bisexual.
I'm not terribly surprised that five of them are women; while I wholeheartedly believe we need more women in politics, I also believe we need more visible open bisexual men in the public sphere to look up to. What do you think? I hope these people continue to do good things in their positions.
Cheers!
