My once-solid Republican area is now solid Democrat “thanks” to “redrawing” of district borders, resulting in my gun-grabber rep’s reelection:
With all 8,878 precincts reporting, Sykes won with 51.05% of the votes.
*Emilia Sykes (D) 193,575
*Kevin Coughlin (R) 185,622
You can’t do worse than losing. I maintain a high profile in a district that attracts thousands to gun shows could have helped, and the low profile presented did nothing to mobilize them.
My only consolation: She won’t be in a position to do much damage for a few years.
