not flippable. We don’t even have a candidate running for the House. That means another two years of GT Thompson who will have this seat for life.

glad to see him go. Hopefully we get someone better ( I know halfway decent and sane Republicans are very hard to find) than him if our side doesn't win.

I’ll see if she’s heard anything yet about who might run for Scarnatti’s seat. I am so disgusted with Thompson. I call his offices often. He’s too much of a coward to hold a town hall (other than on the phone). There was one on Monday. I lasted five minutes.

if Thompson would decided it was time to retire also. No much chance for a pickup for us but one can always hope.
