IF you get them to vote the right way. You don’t know how and when they’ll “Flake” out, and on what. That’s why these people are utterly unreliable and especially dangerous to have in the Senate. Frankly, I think we should move forward with amending the Constitution to permit recall of Senators.
I say no thanks to the endless campaign recalls would entail. Might as well give the entire body 2 year terms, no?

We should note that one of our guys a number preferred, Montenegro, has yet to file —perhaps a “Resign to Run” issue. The other thing is that Dr. Tipirneni, who announced in July is showing a good sum of money raised. I believe her parents immigrated from India and she grew up here from age 3. She is very personable, comes across very well in the media and is not an idiot like many Democrat politicians. She will be the first formidable Democrat to run for this district in the last 8 years at least.
