From the AP:
Gov. Steve Beshear has scheduled a special election to replace former Republican U.S. Rep. Geoff Davis for Nov. 6 - the same day as the general election.That means big savings for taxpayers in the 4th District.This also means that the winner of this election will not have to wait until January to be seated in the 113th Congress along with the other new Members, but will begin representing the Fourth District immediately on Nov. 7. Bill Adkins or Thomas Massie will join the 112th Congress in the lame-duck session that may prove one of the most contentious in history.Lynn Zellen, spokeswoman for the secretary of state's office, said holding the special congressional election on a separate day could have cost as much as $500,000.
Considering Thomas Massie is a Randian Tea Party jagoff, and this is NOBAMA Country, I'm thinking I need to redouble my efforts to get Bill Adkins elected. Help him out if you can.
