How is he actually still a candidate? Genuine question, I don't follow US politics that closely.

[–] MagicPterodactyl@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 minutes ago

Senate seats are only up for reelected every 6 years so he has not had to be a candidate.

Lol, the one guy on CBC even talked about having a Fetterman resistant Senate majority

What kind of fool would jump from a functional ship to a sinking one?

Just Fetterman and Stevens I guess.

stevens is out of the party in her state, she has very little power unlike fetterman.

Thankfully, the margins are wide enough now that it wouldn't even really matter if he did.

TBF, I thought he already had.

Has in spirit, not in title. He'll switch almost immediately to make sure the dem's headline senate control is a little more tenuous and looks worse on paper.

The Governor has the mandate now. Call that fuck to heel.

STFU Johnny, you're out of your element.

[–] Janx@piefed.social 5 points 3 hours ago

Lol, it won't be enough.

Better to keep a man on the inside, especially since he can't flip control and can keep voting with the regime anyway.
