It looks like Warde Nichols is within about 70 votes of being put out to pasture.

Nichols, who represents the district my parents live in, notoriously initially voted to kill the marital rape repeal in committee last year by claiming that "everyone knows" that a woman forfeits all her rights to determine when she will consent to have sex when she signs her marriage contract.

If Democrat Hettsmansperger can maintain that lead in the remaining precinct, it will be good riddance to bad rubbish.
