I’m gonna assume you meant to address the “older teens getting married” part of that sentence and not the “polygamous Mormon cults” part. 🙂

Galindo is being discussed in the House Elections thread in P & E. Turns out her campaign is being funded by a dark money PAC linked to GOP donors. _Quelle surprise!_
