Yes, you told me of that ages ago.
Seems it was an unusual circumstance, longtime GOP incumbent died right before the election and prick somehow finagled himself as the replacement in what must have been a corrupt process, I doubt he’d have won a regular primary.
If you look at the vote totals in that district, you can see how irrelevant the GOP was there and how they could effectively be a puppet of or in collusion with the local Democrats.
