Unless she picks her replacement very carefully, RIP that seat for Republicans. Keep in mind that a special election would be held in 2020, a presidential year.
I bet that guy who won the House seat would still be favored.
Yeah, I wouldn't underestimate Poliquin, if he's appointed. Well have to see how he holds up next year, but Maine in 2014 already had the highest turnout of any state. The bump Democrats get from Presidential turnout likely wouldn't be as pronounced here.
I really hopes she does this, Dems definately need at least an open seat in a state like ME to pick up, and hopefully, Dean Heller run for gov of NV, too.
Cain and Dina Titus can become new female senators if Heinkamp and McCaskill lose.
