Please no one over 70.
Better an old louse than a young nit.
Cornyn or Thune, however, are just as bad as McConnell.
KY Governor picks whoever he wants.. which in this case would be a democrat.
Can’t come soon enough, the traitor!
I don’t believe that became law, or the (D) Governor didnt sign it into law. Could be wrong.
63.200 United States Senator -- Procedures for filling of vacancy. (1) (a) The Governor shall fill vacancies in the office of United States Senator by appointment and the appointee shall serve until a successor has been elected and qualified under subsection (2), (3), (4), or (5) of this section. (b) The appointee shall be selected from a list of three (3) names submitted by the state executive committee of the same political party as the Senator who held the vacant seat to be filled, shall have been continuously registered as a member of that political party since December 31 of the preceding year, and shall be named within twenty-one (21) days from the date of the list submission (c) In the event the vacant seat was held by a person who was not a member of any political party as defined under KRS 118.015, the Governor shall appoint any qualified voter who is not a member of any political party as defined under KRS 118.015. (d) Upon appointment, the Governor shall, under the seal of the Commonwealth, certify the appointment to the President of the Senate of the United States. The certificate of appointment shall be countersigned by the Secretary of State.
Hard to believe that corrupt insider idiot is still around...
He’s probably been in government since he was 20...What a loser.
They will without a doubt replace him with similar
Zero chance anyone else
Voters of Kentucky, please try to get it right this time.
Great info. You done good.
I don’t remember the vote but I do remember the discussion of it upcoming and that the GOP had the votes to override. Unfortunately I can’t readily find anything online because all that’s on the web are stories about how the legislature just overrode the veto of the so-called “anti-trans”
Bill. Stopping the mutilitstion of children and getting rid of McConnell would be a two-fer to remember
John Cornyn and John Thune UGH!!!!!
Define winning.
Not another RINO.
“Rand would be great.”
Rand is great in many ways except his isolationist/Libertarian views on foreign policy.
Too damned many politicians die in office when they should have retired years ago.
Voters of Kentucky, please try to get it right this time.

They won’t be given a chance to get it right, it’ll be:
Deep State #1
Deep State #2
Deep State #3
That’ll be their choices.
No, you don’t want Barrassos. He is my senator and is worthless. He has his nose so far up McConnells rear that you can’t tell where one begins and the other ends. He would, however be a slight improvement over Cornyn, but only slight. None of the three mentioned would be an improvement over McConnell.
Yea looks like the KY legislature overrode the veto.. I read the law, but its kind of confusing (as most are). Also language, about WHEN the vacancy occurs, and how the special election will be held.
I’m pretty sure he has to choose from a list that the retiring Senators party furnishes
