I have always preach the importance of always putting up an opponent no matter how unlikely you will win. I don’t know the political makeup of the district or the pre-election rules on vacancies, but Michelle could waltz into Congress.
Democratic Member of Congress Steny Hamilton Hoyer

Republican Michelle Talkington

“I don’t know the political makeup of the district or the pre-election rules on vacancies, but Michelle could waltz into Congress.”
The political makeup of the district is D+15 with tons of white collar welfare animals (i.e. government “workers”). Trump will be lucky to break 30% there.
Hoyer could croak, not be replaced on the ballot, and Talkington would still get crushed even by (D) write-in votes.
