Memo from Martin P Burns of PricewaterhouseCoopers

Plus (often) as an opportunity for political point-scoring - being 'tough
on crime'. Even if it means executing mentally ill people.

How likely is it that anyone would run for a US state governor-hood (or a
national office) taking a strong stance against the death penalty?

Cheers
Martin
