Two Democrats suffered a humiliating loss at the hands of their conservative competitor, perhaps one of the worst defeats of the 2020 elections.
This race for a seat in the North Dakota House of Representatives was devastating for the leftists not because of the wide margins, but because of who their Republican opposition was.
David Andahl, a North Dakota rancher and pro-Trump candidate, won his race for the state legislature after voters hit the polls Tuesday.
The defeat for the Democratic-Nonpartisan League Party candidates running against him, Linda Babb and Kathrin Volochenko, is made even worse by the fact that Andahl has been dead since early October.
According to The Bismarck Tribune, Andahl passed away Oct. 5 after suffering complications following a COVID-19 diagnosis.
Andahl was elected to one of two District 8 House seats alongside fellow Republican Dave Nehring.
According to the North Dakota Secretary of State’s Office, Andahl and Nehring won with 35.53 percent and 40.72 percent of the vote, respectively.
I mean why is this surprising?
