Today’s results will answer many questions. One of the biggest is, did Ken Simpler make the right choice? He could have renounced Trump and run as the non-partisan moderate, a statesman and heir to Mike Castle. That might have created some momentum for the prize he is really after, the Governorship. Instead, he chose silence and thereby became a “Republican party above all” Trump supporter.
It may yet work for him. But he will have lost by winning. He will have locked down the GOP nomination for Governor, but will have simultaneously incinerated any chance of ever being Governor.
