What if the Convicted State Auditor wins in September and wins in November? Should Carney wait until after the election in November to remove McGuiness? If he removes her prior to the election can he re-remove her after the election? Shouldn't the office of auditor be filled by someone who hasn't been convicted of the very crimes the auditor's office is tasked with uncovering and rooting out? So many questions.

Keep fucking around and trying to take women's privacy away, you motherfuckers. We'll put an abortion clinic in every high school.
Voters have grown more supportive of legalizing abortion following the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, with a clear majority opposing restrictions, like bans at a certain point of pregnancy or barring women from traveling to get a legal abortion, according to a new Wall Street Journal poll that underscores the importance of the issue in the midterm elections. According to the survey, 60% of voters said abortion should be legal in all or most cases, up from 55% in March. Another 29% said it should be illegal, except in cases of rape, incest and when the woman’s life is endangered, compared with 30% in March. And 6% said it should be illegal in all cases, down from 11% in March. The court’s decision to end federal constitutional protections for the procedure has injected new Democratic energy into a midterm election that Republicans expected to be dominated by economic issues. About a dozen states have banned many or most abortions since the Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization.

Tucker Carlson says children’s hospitals around the country such as Nemours Children’s Hospital are “performing horrifying experiments on children”

You'd think that our state Senators would defend our state's world class Children's Hospital. It is shameful that Coons & Carper are not engaged in pushing back against this anti-trans agitprop.  But now that I think about it, maybe Carper has ulterior motives for letting the rightwing run riot.

“Sarah McBride to Primary Tom Carper” – Epilogue

I was thinking about something as I wrote the other installments.  "I wonder what the asswipes in the DEGOP are going to make of this primary?" Are they rubbing their hands together in anticipation at the idea of being able to run against a trans person?   Are they slobbering at the idea of being the assholes they are by deadnaming and mis-gendering McBride in every statement?  Are they somehow thinking that normal Delawareans will join them in thinking that if McBride wins transgender teams of softball players will try to gain an advantage in the state championship? And, on a related note, will the sober moderate Dems be drawn into their usual vortex of "worries" that the "middle" will reject a trans person based on the DEGOP's utter nonsense? Well... let me take those rhetorical questions in order.
