This special elections is to replace the democrat congresswoman who replaced Hillary Clinton in the Senate. Who said that this is a conservative district?
I did.
Democrats who can get elected in this district like Gilibrand don’t grow on trees and even she wouldn’t have been elected if the incumbent and his wife hadn’t gotten drunk and beaten each other up.
The district went for Obama this time, but it’s by no means a Democrat district.
Jim Tedisco has been the Assembly Minority Leader since Christ was a teenager. He’s a household name. The Dem is a nobody.
