Cochran’s win will probably keep the seat in Repub hands, which is much more important than teaching RNC bigwigs a lesson they’re incapable of learning imo.

Big picture thinking like that will earn you a good flaming around here.

We have a cohort of Nervous Nellies who oppose Articles of Impeachment until we have 2/3 of the Senate. Then we have a bunch of Barn Burners who want to add one more Democrat to the Senate.

Contesting this runoff is certainly worth doing. A price needs to be exacted for the sleazy behavior that is coming to light.

Aiding and abetting the Democrat Party in ANY way is not our next best move after that.

The big picture is that you don't get conservative governance from liberal republicans. They must be purged at either the primary or the general election.

Only after that happens, can conservative governance occur.

That is the big picture.

Contest illegal behavior certainly, but not legal behavior we don’t like. If in MI it’s legal for voters who didn’t vote in the primary to then vote in the primary runoff, then I don’t think it’s sleazy for voters to strategically take advantage of that option to optimize the chances of their candidate in November. I remember thinking about voting for Jesse Jackson in the GA Dem primary to impede Bill “Come Back Kid” Clinton’s path to the nomination. I couldn’t make myself do it then, but I sure would now if it were legal.

What might you suggest. Since the GOP-e was behind the sleazy behavior and they won the election, what motivation do they have to extract anything? They will not contest the results. I'm not being provocative. I just don't see what can be done.
