Since Celia Cohen has retired from the biz, it falls to me to set the early matchups. Spoiler Alert: This is the roughest of rough drafts.
US SENATE- Democratic Primary
Chris Coons vs Unopposed
July 1, 2018 is the deadline for the party to set the filing fee. July 10th is the deadline for candidates to file for a Statewide Office. Since the Dem primary IS THE ELECTION, It will be a crime when Coons goes un-primaried. But I’m not hearing anything, so it looks like Coons gets a walk.
US SENATE- Republican Primary
Some Crazy Person vs Some Crazy Person
Let’s face it, Trump-fever continues to grip the DEGOP. Nobody with a chance of winning statewide will expose themselves to the deranged mob known as registered Republicans. So it looks like Coons gets a walk. How lucky is Coons? Castle gets taken out by a lunatic, then everyone just lays down like he is a young Mike Tyson.
Delaware Governor – Republican Primary
Some Crazy Person vs Some Crazy Person
Again, nobody with a chance of winning statewide will expose themselves to the deranged mob known as registered Republicans. Check that, there is Republican clueless enough, and this person has won statewide – Kathy McGuiness. She could run on her record as the State Auditor that required legislation to make her do her job. That kind of shit will be catnip to the deranged mob known as registered Republicans.
Delaware Governor – Democratic Primary
John Carney (CoC) vs Sarah McBride
I’m not giving up on this. It makes too much sense not to happen.
Here is a link to the Dept of Corrections…I mean Elections deadline calendar. I’ll be outsourcing most of the rest of this series. You’re Welcome.
