Tim Ryan probably wins Mahoning County, home of Akron, where Sherrod Brown is from. But where does S Cori Bush go?

My staff just Googled "John Fetterman" and informed me that the image results correspond to the official portrait of Governor R2D2. Is he running to beat "Ron Johnson" in a future election, whoever that is and whenever that may be?

2022 wont be a Red wave yr like 2010/16 due to 7% unemployment.

[Gracile]

Its OLAWAKANDI week and Black history month, we should celebrate that instead, when talking about ancestry

S Tim Ryan isn't STRICKLAND, he will make the race competitive he will he gift to Ds

[Poirot]

Who is Olawakandi ? Does this person use another username

I'm not really for a holiday if I don't even know the person.

[SevenEleven]

Amendment offered:

Section 2:
4. Annual festivities to honor Olawakandi will take place in the form of Sunbelt Celebrations, taking place in Los Angeles, Fremont and Lake Michigan, Lincoln.

[KaiserDave]

You need to pass this

[Continential]

Someone should propose to have an amendment to have celebrations in Missouri, because that is where he registered in his brief time in Atlasia.

[YE]

Friendly.

[Poirot]

If someone only had a brief stay in Atlasia more than a decade ago I don't understand the reason for a holiday in the make of this person.

[SevenEleven]

24 hours to object to the amendment.

[Joseph Cao]

I think we can be a little more specific on the relevant jurisdictions than "Lake Michigan." Planning festivities is a logistical nightmare that we ought to strive to make as clear-cut as possible.

This is an objection unless the amendment is modified directly and the sponsor gives his assent.

Olawakandi said he lived in Lake Michigan. Therefore, we celebrate in Lake Michigan.

Festivities CAN be celebrated in Lake Michigan, OC home is proof that HUMANS can live underwater now      we live in happier times, not like authoritarian 2016

As far as I am aware, OC is the only recorded person to live at the bottom of Lake Michigan. That's part of why we're here debating this! But we can't have a one-man parade, nor can a parade be organized by one man. Some state or another, or all of them, will have to claim jurisdiction for organizing it.

(Of course, we could always bump responsibility for organizing the festivities off to Lincoln itself. But that isn't explicitly stated in the amendment.)

Can, or won't?

No offense but if everyone had your attitude, humans never would've developed the ability to do amazing things like walk

I do seem to vaguely recall his being registered.

I firmly believe festivities that aim to celebrate the life and deeds of OC should be open to as many people as possible, and situating them at the bottom of Lake Michigan is counterproductive to that aim. As the only Congressman here with a vested interest in the wellbeing of my Lakeshore constituents, I will not be passing off all responsibility for organizing his own festivities to the man who we are supposed to honoring here; nor will I endanger the lives of my constituents by chucking them into the middle of Lake Michigan for festivities that could be celebrated perfectly fine onshore.
