I'm getting the ads. Bashear is going to win it. Cameron has run a terrible campaign. No positive ads except one that ties him to Trump. Bashear has positive ads, is very popular (with good reason) and has tied Cameron to Matt Bevin, the prior unpopular governor.

The real Biden Drag Effect

And for good reason. He was as much a leader during COVID and the tornadoes as DeWine was in Ohio. He has taken credit for a tax cut he threatened to veto, but the electorate has the memory of a goldfish on certain matters. While he may be governor, every other GOP state official won. He's not going to be able to do anything past centrist.

That worked quite well in Massachusetts (but in reverse) when they elected Republican governors Romney and Baker and the rest of the legislature was Democrat. Now I'm in Rhode Island I don't even know who the governor is. It probably doesn't really matter. I'm a low-information non-voter.

I should really apply for citizenship, it's just a right old faff. Also, I'd need to stop using words like 'faff'.
