Elections have consequences...

Here is an article from the Republic about the surprise defeat of the Republican budget in the House. All Democrats voted against the bill and 6 Republicans. This would have been impossible last session. The extra seats we picked up in the Leg create the possibility of building coalitions with moderate Republicans. The Republicans keeping purging their moderates which leaves the rest with no good choices and little loyalty. It makes me wonder if this is the beginning of the end of the extreme Republican dominance of the legislature. The Senate is already working with the Governor.

We have to keep fighting in the leg... We have to take it over.
