Fairbanks Daily News-Miner publishes letter by Richard Grayson, "Hope this clears things up"

Today, Tuesday, June 23, 2026, the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner published a letter by Richard Grayson, "Hope this clears things up," responding to a letter that questioned Alaska's U.S. Senate candidates' motives for running:
I agree with the letter writer who argued that if the Alaska Division of Elections is going to examine and judge the motives of one candidate for the U.S. Senate and purport to remove him from the ballot -- something I believe is unconstitutional -- then all candidates' motives for running need to likewise be judged. As a Senate candidate, my Arizona address provoked a question about my motives, so I will answer it now: The average high temperature each day in Apache Junction in August is between 104 and 114 degrees Fahrenheit. Just as our town is filled with seasonal residents from Alaska and other Northern climes, I now have a good excuse to visit my snowbird neighbors and mooch off them for a while. That great politician Harry S. Truman may have said, "If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen," but at age 75, I prefer to spend time in Alaska.

IRANIC: There's nothing funny about the situation in Iran, but that hasn't stopped a Rockaway Park author, Richard Grayson, from putting together a paperback of puns, published this week, called "The Iran Joke Book." Samples: "How do Iranians phone each other?" "Persian to Persian." "How do Iranian clergymen make a decision?" "They mullah it over.".
