Ah I didn’t know there was a WA State Senate special, it’s for the seat of Derek Kilmer, who was elected to replace Norm Dicks in Congress. The Senate is currently run by a coalition of Republicans and 2 democrats. Longtime “DINO” Tim Sheldon and a former State House RINO party switcher, elected as a rat to the Senate, Rodney Tom. Picking up this seat would leave the GOP 1 shy of a real majority. The GOP candidate is State Rep. Jan Angel, her foe appointed rat Senator Nathan Schlicher. Angel’s House seat appears secure if she wins and vacates it. She’s ahead by just under 52-48 according to the latest numbers.

The roller coaster continues in VA. Obenshain up again by 681 votes.

I’m glad for the success in your town, Pete. And sad at those close losses. A few votes. Once by late Grandma and her friends were the margin of victory in their small suburban Mayoral race.
