I would guess the voters didn’t know because the press hid it, wouldn’t report it.

It's the opposition party's responsibility to expose this, not the press.

Another case of not accentuating the 'Hussein' part of 'Barack Hussein Obama'. Idiot Republicans never learn.

Republicans didn’t even field a candidate for this senate district. We just gave it to him. There was an independent candidate, and I think we were hoping that the independent could win, and were worried that if we ran a candidate, we would split the vote and he would get in that way.

But she didn’t come close, and it’s a poor excuse not to run candidates for office.
