All signs point to this is not going to be a good next couple years for Republicans. Need an example? Ok this isn't a governor but still
Darrell Issa Retiring From Congress | HuffPost
Issa, one of the wealthiest members of Congress,
narrowly won his re-election race against Democrat Doug Applegate in November 2016 by just 1,621 votes. It was Issa’s
first competitive race in more than 15 years.
Issa is the second California Republican to announce his retirement this week, joining
Rep. Ed Royce. Both were considered among the party’s most endangered members and
top targets for potential Democratic pickups in 2018. Democrat
Hillary Clinton won their districts in the 2016 presidential election.
In recent months,
at least 30 House Republicans have announced they will leave Congress, according to CNN. Several Senate Republicans have also announced their plans to retire, including
Jeff Flake (Ariz.) and
Bob Corker (Tenn.).
Yea, things are looking good for the GOP. SUUUREE they are.
