Seven seat majority in the House with six vacancies.

And a 50-50 Senate.

Democrats hold power by a mere thread.

Will the vacancies be filled by appointment or special election? States handle issues like that differently.

“After the congressman’s death, Democrats hold a narrow 218-211”

Wikipedia has it 218-212...makes a difference at this point.

How fitting that a corrupt judge spends the rest of his life in Congress.

Is it saying something bad of the dead to point out Hastings was an Impeached and CONVICTED federal judge?

Then went on to his community, ran for Congress, and told the Homies he was set up by “Da Man” so they voted for him in droves?

My mother told me never to speak ill of the dead.
My mother also told me to always speak the truth.
My God have mercy on the crooked Alcee Hastings immortal soul.

In the House foe decades. Can’t help but wonder how much his estate has grown in that time.

Not to mention how much has the life style of his district improved in that time?

I do look forward to the increasingly common news of these evil fossils assuming room temperature. What is the average age of the democrats? 80?

Hastings held the distinction of being the only congress critter who was an impeached and convicted federal judge. His idiot constituents will replace him with someone equally corrupt or at least close.

The fate of the republic could be in the hands of one six RAT senators who is avad driver. They are in a state where a GOP governor could immediately appoint a replacement without special election or requirement to replace with same party. A car accident could save the republic.
