Hopefully, a write-in campaign will be mounted to replace him, or they'll simply vote for the Democrat.

He was retiring at the end of this term anyway.

No. He was reelected in the primary this year.

Ok, but he abruptly withdrew from the race earlier this month.  The GOP already found a replacement candidate for him last week.

I really hate to say this, but is there any evidence that the late wife would not have wanted sex with her husband?  I know young people tend to think us olds have no interest in woohooing or worse, that it is disgusting if we woohoo, but that is a form of ageism.  Certainly, nursing homes would rather not have to deal with people in their care engaging in woohoo, as it creates difficulty for them, so certainly are biased against the practice.  However, if we are going to be so hyper protective as a society as to make it the default that old people can reach the point that they won't be allowed to woohoo with those they were woohooing with, then we should be able to have documents similar to a living will detailing who we want to be able to woohoo with once we are legally unable to give consent.

A court had already ruled that her Alzheimer's had left her mentally unable to consent.
