Interim replacement will be an R though, right, whether by appointment or special election?

From a FOXNews article on his resignation:

"Utah law states that the governor must call for a special election in the event of a House vacancy. Once Stewart makes his resignation official, Republican Gov. Spencer Cox will have seven days to set the time for a primary and special election. The law requires those dates to be the same as municipal primary and general elections scheduled for this year, unless the state legislature appropriates funds to hold a separate election."

The Progressives just can't get out of their own way...take the win and fight again after. Voting No makes you look weak, out of touch and incompetent.

100% agree with this and your follow-ups. This is too important and it's an opportunity to let McCarthy and the MAGA reps both step on their dicks simultaneously.

This isn't the time to be cute when we're tightroping over the grand canyon.

So essentially that seat stays vacant until November UNLESS Utah's state legislature funds a special election before then?
 
456 will pass:
y-n-nv
R: 189-29-4
D: 45-164-4
------------
H: 235-192-8


Key procedural vote to move forward. HR 3746 will be voted on later today I believe (the actual bill)
 
If that happened McCarthy would be primaried. His rich constituents don't want him owing the Dems.
 
It's interesting that they're the ones crying because as I understand it the only thing the Democrats got was less pain than the previous GOP bill. There's not a single thing in there for Democrats. Everything in there was Republican policy pushes.

They can all just fuck off.
 
I saw two (to many) articles about Boebert today. First one was a piece where she admitted that she hates getting *positive* calls from her constituents. She actually looks forward to the "hatertainment" of being abusive to the negative callers.

Second one was how she was running up the steps of the capitol when they gaveled the debt ceiling bill as passed. The opponent she narrowly defeated asked 'what was so important that she missed this vote when she spent so much time railing against the bill these last few days?'
