    I have, and it’s pretty fucking frustrating. We managed to get Janelle Bynum elected to replace Lori Chavez-DeRemer. DeRemer was awful–ran claiming to be a centrist, then backed every move the Trump administration made. I voted against her when she first ran, but she managed to win, because my district is only partly in the city, and the rest is rural conservatives, so it’s decided by a handful of swing voters. Fortunately, she didn’t last; two years later, she was replaced with Janelle Bynum, who ran as a centrist democrat and has pushed towards the right ever since being elected. She doesn’t always support the administration, but she sure refused to condemn their treatment of Ilhan Omar, and she signed a big pledge talking about how she’s a capitalist and devoted to fighting the scourge of socialism. She’s extremely mediocre. I voted against her in the primary, but in the general, I held my nose and voted for her again, because the alternative is another pro-Trump idiot.

    So yeah. I’m not exactly moaning in ecstasy over here. But I definitely was glad the republican lost. DeRemer went on to work as Trump’s Secretary of Labor, until she was thrown out for misconduct. Now she works for a think tank that pushes data centers. So it was good to get her out the door. It’s just frustrating that we get such shitty choices.
