Those who visit the social media profile of Republican Aria DiMezzo will quickly see that she describes herself the following way: “I am a transgender anarchist, capitalistic, atheistic lesbian from Mississippi.”
The diehard Republican is on a mission to take over the Cheshire County Sheriff’s Office in New Hampshire. Running under the slogan “F*** the police,” the would-be sheriff hopes to turn the New Hampshire county into a safe place for all people, Black and trans individuals included.
However, DiMezzo has not become sheriff yet. She still has to defeat the popular incumbent Democrat Eli Rivera – but with the backing of Trump’s party, she believes she can do anything. But will the GOP shovel campaign funds into this small New Hampshire race for the sheriff’s office? Even though she declared herself a proud Republican, the Party has expressed ZERO interest in supporting her efforts to change the way the Sheriff’s office operates.
“It is with great joy that I receive this nomination from the Republicans of Cheshire County, who, in an era of Donald Trump, showed their tolerance and dedication to the principles of small-government by nominating the trans anarchic High Priestess of the Reformed Satanic Church to be sheriff,” wrote DiMezzo on her thriving Facebook page.
Besides being a political activist and member of the Republican Party, she is an author – and describes herself the following way on Amazon.
On her popular internet radio show, DiMezzo refers to herself as the controversial term, “She-Male.”
Marylin Huston, Cheshire County GOP chair, does not like DiMezzo and is working on kicking her out of the Republican Party.
“If you look at their social media and their political statements, they really do not fall in line with the Republican message,” Huston said, undermining their top candidate in the Sheriff’s race.
DiMezzo is persistent. She ran for Cheshire Sheriff as a Libertarian candidate in 2018 but only received a small minority of votes because she ran under a third party. This time she hopes that the backing of the GOP will help her take over the sheriff’s office and make it her own.
Her mission as sheriff will be to decriminalize drugs, sex work, illegal immigration, and more.
Although she has a shot as the next Cheshire County Sheriff, she will not win easily. But if the GOP throws their weight behind her, she could be able to take the New Hampshire county in the name of the same party as Donald Trump.
