Isn’t that illegal?

I thought Democrats had a divine right to win all elections?

The mourning on Twitter is amazing. This was a long held Rat seat and the Democrats expected to win it. They got crushed.

Whoever was in charge of the R’s election, PUT HIM IN CHARGE OF THE RNC.

OK, maybe a jump to conclusions, but what the heck.

The clowns on Twitter are already blaming the Marijuana Party candidate for syphoning Rat votes, the problem is that Rarick has a majority even if you give the Rat all the Marijuana voters.

Er, could you repeat that?

I’ve been out of circulation for a while.

You did say “marijuana party”, right?

No wonder why I’ve been out of circulation...

Is there a “Jack Daniels” party? Cause I’ll switch :)

Yes, it's not the fact that Democrats have systematically been turning that state into a replica of Somalia.

Kudos to left Twitter for the very astute take.

Give it a bit. The democrats will find some ballots in a back room for themselves.

This is a district that includes Duluth suburbs and is mostly rural and almost no minorities (maybe some Native Americans) Long-time home of more conservative Democrats that Trump and the GOP should be winning these days.

They were favored to win, but their voters thought the election was going to be on April 20.

SMH

Soon to come...”METH FOR EVERYONE!!” party

Not that i think Maryjane would be the end of the US if it was legal everywhere.

But i do think the push for brutal drugs like heroin and meth would be next.

This win moves the MN Senate to a 35-32 GOP majority.
It was 34-33. So this is a pretty big deal. It also shows that President Trump has made a fundamental change in these rural blue collar but historically Democrat areas.
