What's on the horizon in upcoming special elections?

[nat4900]

There are two special elections to be decided prior to Nov. 2018....and given these latest wins in VA, NJ, and AL, they will determine how republicans will either "embrace" or jettison the Trump cult.

In PA, there will be an election for the 18th district on March 13th....the seat is vacated by the GOP'er named Tim Murphy who resigned because of an illicit affair...and, as an anti-abortion advocate, he still asked his mistress to have an abortion (hypocrisy much?).

In AZ, there will be an election for the 8th district on April 24th....the seat is being vacated by the GOP'er Trent Franks who is resigning over a sexual harassment claim where he asked two female staffers to be "surrogates" baby-holders.

Should be an interesting spring next year.....

Sure nut, the people flip a coin when it comes to choosing between an accused pedophile and a Democrat...

Dems are toxic and have no ideas to offer the people. The only way they can win is if Republicans shoot themselves in the foot, character assassination, or illegal voting.

if Republicans shoot themselves in the foot,

Indeed.......(there's a lot of that going around).....LOL

Ryan and McConnell are perfectly happy to turn control back over to Dems. It's not like they're actually doing anything with their majority

The two above mentioned races will "test" the will of those states' citizens to either maintain the status quo (vote for a republican).....or throw Trump and company under the proverbial bus.
