It must be so hard for Sen Nelson to know that.. like Hillary.

Stacy Abrams, too.

Knowing that some of their votes could cost them their seats and stood up anyway, unlike all of the current repub senators. Both would be good choices for positions in the Democratic administration that will be taking over in January of 2021.

I am SOOO disappointed that Pugs won instead!

It is the people of both states who will suffer, unfortunately. But some of them will be too stupid ever to realize that.

But in ND, those are big. I miss the ND I left 20 years ago: Send. Dorgan (D) and Conrad (D), Rep. Pomeroy (D).

I was so appreciative of Heidi Heitcamp in the Kavannagh hearing
that I sent her money even though I knew she would lose and they
republicans would vote her out. Damn shame.
