It appears that the company
Deirdre works for is a major contractor for the Department of Defense
and General Services Administration. This would appear to be covered by
the Hatch Act as well. So, she will either have to ask the Democratic
Central Committee
to rescind the endorsement or drop out herself. How ironic that the
same act that some would say was nefariously employed to force Nihart
out could come back around and bite her. Maybe her friends are too smart
for their own good!

Such beautiful irony. KARMA really does exist even in Pacifica. Beware Keener and all of your hypocritical cronies, you're already in a deficit position.
I wonder if they even care?
Wishful thinking. It's way to hot have another beer to cool down.
Hey, Keener, your protégé seems to have an issue. Juju returning for a laugh. All this hyperventilating by Ian Butler and his minions (read Stesnunk) is for naught perhaps. Set up the drum circle, you'll need some chanting.
Are Contractors to the Federal Government Considered "Covered Employees" Under the Hatch Act?
Sunday Sep 25, 2016
Several have emailed today asking if federal contractors are considered covered employees under the Hatch Act. Generally, they are not considered "covered employees" and ARE allowed to participate in partisan elections.
I would hope some of our more intrepid gumshoes out there could do a little sleuthing to perhaps point out the pertinent passages in the act itself for us hacks.
F. Lee Hack - apparently you are too dumb to google it yourself. Here's one link. There are lots of others.

1023 thanks! I've added the first reference of your search link to the 9/26/16 "Hatch Act" blog article. Congressional Research..pdf pages 11, Nonpartisan elections, pdf pages 3-4.
F Lee doesn't seem too dumb, you did the work dufass!
