I lack the computational skills needed to calculate how many angels can actually dance on the head of a pin. Such measurements exceed my pay grade when it comes to math, theology, and dance appreciation. But I’m betting Bruce Porter, now running a second time for 3rd District county supervisor, could tell you. When it comes to splitting hairs, Porter has proven himself a board-certified microsurgeon.
Bringing this to the fore is Porter’s response last week upon being asked to describe his relationship with Robin Howe, who recently resigned as head of Rock the Vote Santa Barbara amid allegations of voter suppression in Isla Vista on behalf of Porter’s campaign.
Porter told Independent reporter Delaney Smith that he had no connection at all with the local Rock the Vote effort or with Howe. Smith reported as much.
