My concern is that this lady, if elected, runs an exceptional chance of switching to the Democrats. I find it astonishing she could be chosen over more reliable applicants that didn’t set off such warning signals. If I were the local Democrats, I’d only put up desultory opposition, because they gain either way.
Arlen Specter redux.
the only reason she was chosen was that the votes were cast only by the county chairs. Not the rank and file. 11 people only.
And some of the 11 are feminist GOP women who love Dede. When normal people don’t get involved in local county politics, feminists and other weirdos take over.
This is also a demonstration why there should be a special primary. Frankly, whichever county party chairs voted for this rodent trojan horse should be promptly removed.
“My concern is that this lady, if elected, runs an exceptional chance of switching to the Democrats.”
Good point. If I’m not mistaken, the County Republican organizations choose the nominee and whoever wins the most counties gets the nod. But I’m also surpised that she got it, and not in a happy way. This sucks.
the Chairman asks his county committee their opinion on the race, he can even do a straw poll. But he casts all the votes anyway he/she wants.
Some of the large counties had feminist GOP chairwomen who were ENTHUSED big time about Dede and they cast unanimous votes from their county for her. Some counties split their votes.
