So, now who's the candidate in DeLay's seat???

[Rosco T.]

or will we have a rethug free-for-all on his seat?

[YouthInAsia]

1. Some equally fascist christian zombie. No doubt

[Mz Pip]

2. He won his primary!

So what does that mean? He will still be on the ballot?? or will the Dem win by default?

Inquiring minds outside of Texas want to know!!!


BTW to all the lurking Freepers: Would he have quit you all if he wasn't up shit creek?

4. It's too late to have someone put on the ballot, I think.

There would have to be a write-in. So far as I know, his name would still be on the ballot, but I'm far from an expert.

5. Shit creek is right; he's not doing this for the good of the party,

he's about to be exposed! Heh heh. :D

[rpannier]

8. I think the Party gets to pick

Lane Evans (D-IL) said after the primary that he is withdrawing from the race and I've been told that the Party gets to pick his replacement. That's also what happened in New Jersey a few years back as well. The Democratic Senate (or governor, I can't remember which) pulled out (because he was a crook) and the Party picked his replacement.

3. Sean at agonist.com says its an automatic Dem win

Because Delay won the primary and cannot be replaced.

Don't know if that's true, but that's what the texan says.

7. ROFLMAO!!!

DeLay must be in HUGH1111 trouble!!! :party:

9. I don't think this is true after all

[Gman]

6. I would think that the GOP county chairs

or maybe precinct committeepersons would pick a replacement.

[IselaB]

10. There was a thing on NPR a few weeks back about the guy

challenging him in the primary. I assume they'll give it to him.

What an idiot (Delay, I mean)! Why didn't he make this decision BEFORE the primary? Why the ... DELAY?

Oh God, I kill me.
