Voters Smack Down Schwartzkopf/McGuiness

Lydia York defeated the convicted state auditor by a roughly 2 to 1 margin.  In addition to being a referendum on not having convicted criminals hold public office, this vote is widely seen as a repudiation of Speaker Pete Schwartzkopf who was a tenacious supporter of the convicted auditor.

Many believe that Schwartzkopf will be forced out of the leadership by his party caucus in a few weeks time.
