On the ballot, though, don't the federal offices come first?
I agree that the lopsided gubernatorial race is going to hurt Shimkus, but thought that the US Senate and US House races come first on the ballot. Please advise, many thanks!
I'm fairly certain you're right about the Senate race coming first, but I don't know about the placement of the gubernatorial contest vs. the congressional race. My memory isn't that good! :)
