What party does McMullin caucus with if he pulls the upset? Still the Republicans? Is there any issue he'd vote with the Democrats on, or is just replacing a lunatic with a Romney type?
McMullin is not going to win, but if he did, I believe he would caucus with the Democrats.
McMullin has said that he will refuse to caucus with either party if he wins. My current prediction is almost exactly like the 2020 percentages with Lee possibly winning Grand County due to weird rural turnout in midterms.
I do wonder if he would actually be able to make that happen in practice. Would he even get any committee assignments if he weren't a member of either caucus?
I don't think so. He'd probably just end up caucusing with the Democrats.
