Dying to Be Elected
November 8th, 2012 — 9:39am
While Mitt Romney has to be bummed about having spent six years and a gazillion dollars trying to be elected and losing, at least he lost to a live guy. In Alabama, Republican nominee for the Bibb County Commission Charles Beasley defeated Democrat Walter Sansing despite his having died on October 12. And in Florida, Democrat Earl K. Wood was re-elected to a 12th term as Orange County Tax Collector in Orlando even though he died on October 15. We take solace wherever we can get it, Mr. Romney.
