GOP upset victory in Delaware special election (updated)

Roughly one month ago Delaware State Senator (Senator President Pro Tem as well) Thurman Adams (D) died at the age of 80 from a bout with pancreatic cancer. There was a special election yesterday and the two front runners were Joe Booth (R) and Polly Adams Mervine (D and daughter of the late Senator Thurman Adams). Polly had two major things going for her:

1) she is a Democrat; and

2) she is the daughter of Thurman.

Legacy politics is the political way of life in Delaware. Beau Biden won the AG's spot because of his last name... nothing else.

Nevertheless Joe Booth won, taking a seat that was held by the Democratic Party for roughly 40 years in a state where the Democrats rule the House, Senate, and the Governor's office.

What is most remarkable about the win was the margin. Joe garnered over 60% of the vote in a heavy Democrat area and trounced Adams Mervine by 30 points. ...
How's that hopenchange working out?

The news media is such a bunch of left wing liberal scum. Last election a Repub in Louisiana won Rep Jefferson's seat and was the first Vietnamese in the country to be elected to the House of Representatives. If he had been a Dummiecrat his picture would be on every major rag in the country and he would still be hot item on all the talk shows.

Diebold, didn't you get the memo?  I wonder--if the DUmmies are so afraid of Diebold, will they give me their ATM and credit cards so I can use them on cash machines instead?

I was hoping for a Truth-Is-All diatribe about how this election was stolen, along with lots of excel spreadsheets and graphs for proof. :lmao:

I'm waiting for the chicken wire experiments, myself. That will most certainly prove that the election was stolen.
