If The DEMOCRAT West Virginia Gov waits until July 3rd or later to declare Byrd’s seat vacant, there will not be an election to replace Byrd until 2012, and the Governor will appoint another Democrat to fill the seat.
PUT THE PRESSURE ON HIM NOW! They lose this seat if they must have a Special Election in November!
How do you figure that? Who do you think the corrupt WV GOP can run, let alone be able to win? Remember, the GOP does not hold a single state-wide office even though WV went red in 2000, 2004 and 2008.
