I hope it works out better for West Virginians than it has for the fine folks of NY20 who don’t have a representative because according to Gov Patterson elections are “too expensive”. From a so-called “Democrat” no less!
And then there’s the Robert Toricelle Democrat-abuse-of-state-constitution debacle that allowed another fossil Lautenberg to get to the Senate. Doug Forrester (R) should have won that.
Ooops Typo!! The “fine folks of NY29” who endure taxation without representation. 29th District.

The map shows 29 Districts, but lists only 28 representatives! Wonder why the Dems don’t want to put it to a vote?
