companion

In reality, as Det Con Sheban describes him: "McDonald is a serial scammer who routinely preys on women who are just trying to find a life companion."

He might dismiss Guillermo, the household’s human companion, as worthless, but when old Gizmo needed to trust someone with a potentially deadly secret, Laszlo kept it for him.

Her companion, who wasn’t voting, said she’d choose Trump if she were to cast a ballot but couldn't say why other than, “It’s just where I’m from.”

If Nov. 5 ends up representing the grand finale for American democracy – then “Election Night” will be remembered as that weird companion holding our hands as the first flashes went off on the distant horizon.

In early returns, voters also were supporting a companion measure, Charter Amendment LL, which would put independent redistricting in place at the Los Angeles Unified School District.
