It also means Kemp has nearly completed his bigotry checklist.  He checked off race, during the campaign.  Now, with referring to a woman's protests as a "tantrum," he's got misogyny covered.  Belittling a woman's protests as childish anger is pretty standard procedure in the good ol' boy playbook.

A fine, upstanding representative...

Mr. Stockman, a Republican, served one term in the mid-1990s and another from 2013 to 2015. He also ran unsuccessfully for United States Senate in 2014. Throughout his latter days in politics, Mr. Stockman stood out for being intensely anti-Obama. In 2014, Mr. Stockman walked out of Mr. Obama’s State of the Union address in protest. He also sold Obama “barf bags” as a campaign fund-raiser.

These two groups do not look the same.

"What? We're diverse!" exclaimed the GOP spokesman. "Look - we have a woman. And we have a guy with an eye-patch! See? Diversity!"

Maybe the Republicans Members-elect were selected on ability/merit?

What is a "documented complaint"?

We don't know.  And of course kiidcarter8 didn't quote the part that comes just after...

Herrell told Fox News on Saturday there were “over 100 documented complaints” about voting irregularities. She didn’t provide evidence and her campaign has not returned repeated voicemails, text messages and emails from The Associated Press seeking details about her accusations.

...don't know why he left that out.

A clear case of poster fraud.

Re: the Two Groups

District demographics has a lot to do with the disparity.  I had a choice in SD between the pictured candidate, Dusty Johnson (you gotta love that name) and Tim Bjorkman,  so I had no non-Nordo-Americans for whom to vote.

There were a gazillion complaints from Nelson supporters in Florida!

I have as much evidence of mine as you do for yours. It is easy to SAY there are as many complaints as you want if you do not have to share them.

There is a risque joke in the concept of "virgin train" but I am not up to it right now.

Still trying to figure out what a "documented complaint" is.  Pretty clear you don't know.
