Good thing that Congressman Bill Young died last month, not 6 months ago, or the special election to replace him probably would have been held yesterday, which by the mayoral results in St. Pete likely would have resulted in a Democrat winning the seat.
Speaking of competitive house races, we have another one unfortunately, Jon Ruynan (who as I recall, is a disappointment) is retiring in NJ-3 after 2 terms.
More bad news, VA AG going to recount, late counting has the rat up by 600. Unacceptable.
More Mayoral results, Cincy elects rat Councilman John Cranley over rat Ex-Mayor Roxanne Qualls. I hate these nonpartisan top 2 primaries, Cincy is a city where a Republican can win, Republicans had a right to a general election candidate.
In Toledo Black Mayor Mike Bell (I) was defeated by White challenger Councilman Michael Collins (I), both advanced to the runoff over 2 democrats. Collins supports making a temporary city income tax of 0.75% permanent. Bell was State Fire Marshal under Rat Governor Strickland but backed Kaisch on that anti-big labor ballot initiative and had the “unsolicited backing” of Republicans in this race. Union rats supported the big labor friendly Collins.
Rat Mayor Mike McGinn of Seattle is ousted by another rat, State Senator Ed Murray.
