Carnahan wasn't sick, was he? I thought he died in a plane crash.

He did. His name was still on the 2000 ballot. And he won (well, his widow did) against John Ashcroft (before J.A. was confirmed as Attorney General).

Which wasn't enough for the Democrat-icks to pull his name off the ballot.

What happened was that Carnahan died in a plane crash. His name was left on the ballot and MO voters were told that if they voted for Mel, the acting governor would appoint his wife. Carnahan was about as bad and mean a partisan as one could find in MO.
