It's called a protest vote. Isn't that how Trump got elected?

Similar situation in NC. Man died while up for reelection , if he won (don't know, not my district ) his wife was going to fill his seat

Did CNN tip off anybody as to where these people were going to be?

As we are told whites votes for whites; hispanics vote for hispanics; blacks vote for blacks; etc.. So doesn't it follow that dead people would vote for one of their own?

Yes. His wife was sent to serve the length of his term in his stead.

How bad must you be to get beaten by a corpse?

Yes he did.. because his death came after the ballots were "locked in" by name, and the State supreme court said the name couldn't be replaced. (it was one of the few times where MIssouri considered allowing write-in votes).

No joke. Someone should be buying drinks for the winning campaign manager. Helluva job.
