A few years ago , The Illinois Dems were almost destroyed by the Lyndon Larouche craowd.
And the Pubbies make spot of trying to keep all libertarians off the ballot.
So my hunch is, all the big boys put their scummy heads together!!!
Makes sense; politics at it’s best. You’re either in the “club” or you don’t get elected. It’s becoming more and more true every day, sadly. In Kentucky, you can write in anyone, but....if you’re a Republican for GODSAKE do not hire any Republicans to government jobs. I hear it can get you unseated. (Our Republican governor just got unseated last year because of a ***merit hiring**** scandal; not that most people could follow the specifics of the allegations).
