Terrible but not unexpected news, the rat won and held the seat vacated by the new rat LT Governor and thus the rats keep the DE Senate majority they’ve held since (? DJ?).
It wasn’t close, 58-41.
It was close in 2014, but that it was close in a GOP landslide year didn’t make me confident we could win it in a special election that democraps were nationally targeting, having Plugs Biden go door to door. It’s not a conservative area. It was uncontested in 2012.
Dems are jumping up and down with glee that the didn’t lose it though, lol, pathetic.
On Tuesday in CT split now 17-17 , 2 special elections. One is DEM & the other DEMs think have a chance. But in end probably 18-18 with DEM LT GOV breaks tie. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2017/2/26/1637887/-Critical-Special-Elections-in-Connecticut
DE Republicans haven’t won the Senate since 1970 (they held the House more recently, until 2009).
That the Dems threw every imaginable resource and spent over $1 million for a single legislative seat was pathetic and reeked of desperation. The GOP wasn’t going to match that, nor should they.
The state is controlled by the formerly Republican, now leftist New Castle County, and they can outvote the other 2 GOP counties. I favor disbanding the state entirely and giving it to Maryland. Enough with these tiny “city” states.
