Shocking Upset: Democrats Take Another Seat in NY Special Election


With all that we know, and have access to with the world wide web, people still vote Democrat?

Well, another one just took a seat in New York.

This time it’s Senator Tim Kennedy.

Who’s voting for these people?

With all the crime, muggings and theft running rampant, how are they still voting Democrat?

Brand loyalty?

Or is this another case of stealing an election?

Democrats now control 213 seats while 217 go to the Republicans.

Currently there’s only five seats left.

NBC News reports:

Democrats won a special election for a House seat in western New York on Tuesday, The Associated Press projected, further shrinking the GOP’s narrow majority in the House.

Democratic state Sen. Tim Kennedy defeated Republican town supervisor Gary Dickson in the 26th District, a reliably blue area that includes Buffalo and some of its surrounding suburbs. Democrats will now control 213 seats in the House, compared with 217 for the Republicans. Five seats remain vacant.

Kennedy will serve the rest of Democratic Rep. Brian Higgins’ term. Higgins, who was in his 10th term, resigned in February to run a local performing arts center, and he had some choice words for partisan gridlock in the House. Higgins told The Buffalo News late last year that Congress is “in a very, very bad place” and that “we’re at the beginning phases of a deterioration of the prestige of the institution.”

Are New Yorkers happy with their current living situation?

At this point, perhaps we should go back to a kingship.

Get a proper King in place. The peasants keep voting in the enemy.
