Local Elections

I think the real question is if they use their supermajority to just go ahead and impeach her to prevent her from being the vote that fixes Wisconsin's insane state legislature makeup.

It'd be some real dystopian fascist shit, but ultimately we're talking about Republicans and self preservation. They'll absolutely do it.

[Melena]

The only thing that may stop them is the Governor gets to immediately appoint a new judge.

And they probably need a supermajority in both chambers to impeach which they don't have (law is a little ambiguous on this bit not -that- ambiguous)

Was it the dog?

[Qalbert]

there's no rule that says a dog can't hold office

[Byrthnoth]

*snaps fingers* the Airbud loophole!

Also the pretty dog was in front of the signs of Kim Whipple (or something), the Dem who won by 67:33.

So.... think Daniel Cameron will win by double digits, single digits, or lose?

[Tyche]

Lose, maybe by double digits. I don't think it's going to be particularly close. He won't win over old Republicans in Kentucky because he's black. And he isn't winning over blacks because black people may hate him more than the old white racists. And Beshear continues to be popular and has massive name recognition in this state. Cameron has some obstacles to overcome that aren't as simple to fix as having a R by your name. He's also getting destroyed in fundraising. My assumption is that he will be Mitch's successor.

Closest poll in the last 2 months has Beshear up 8 points.

Threatening to impeach simply because she may vote in a way "they don't like?" That doesn't seem like what impeachment is actually for.

Did my part Virginia.

Did my part Virginia.

Same, but by mail like 2 weeks ago. You can sign up for permanent voting by mail in VA, btw. They just mail you a ballot for every election.
