I believe the rules vary from state to state. I had heard the special election thing was pushed for Kentucky by McConnell himself.
Yup, the "rules". Sacred, unbreakable, sacrosanct rules and norms.
Donald has been good for one thing, demonstrating that all the excuses Dems made about norms and rules were just cover for not giving a shit.
Really wish we could elect a progressive that cares enough about stopping fascism to put a bullet in this absurd notion that we have to observe norms in the face of decidedly harmful and abnormal things, like people are living out of their cars and dying for lack fo health care, but that's just a daydream.
Lol rules. This guy is most likely dead and avoiding all the rules as it is. Why would it even matter what they did after? Clearly rules don't apply here anyway.
The point of rules is to put up obstacles for the opposition, not yourself!
