at least in the short term.
"Hills departure likely means there will no longer be enough Republican representatives alone to override any of GOP Gov. Mike Parsons possible vetoes without Democratic support. The threshold is 109 lawmakers, and currently, there are 110 Republican House members.
On top of Hills planned resignation, Republican Rep. Aaron Griesheimer previously told the Missourian that hes also leaving for another job. Without the two of them, there will be 108 Republican House members."

Maybe Hawley will go down in the J6 purge as well.
Hawley's sitting in Claire McCaskill's seat right?
I freakin love that woman. We could use her seasoned skillset right now.
Hard to a be a Dem in that State.

I like her better in the Senate than Hawley, but I like her better on MSNBC than I liked her in the Senate.
