TN: Senate Republicans to hold a vote of no confidence in Lt. Gov. McNally today

[RandySF]

The Senate Republican Caucus will hold a vote of no confidence in Lt. Gov. Randy McNally Monday, nearly two weeks after revelations that he frequently commented on racy photos on young gay men’s Instagram sites.

McNally, the Republican-appointed speaker of the Senate from Oak Ridge, has weathered the criticism of these comments by stating he makes them out of “encouragement” and that he “enjoys interacting with constituents and Tennesseans of all religions, backgrounds and orientations.”

His comments come as organizations such as the Human Rights Campaign call Tennessee one of the worst states for the LGBTQ community because of a series of laws passed by Republicans.

Republican leaders in the House and Senate have been reluctant to criticize McNally, who has served in the Tennessee General Assembly since 1979.

Several sources told the Tennessee Lookout that they expect McNally to survive the vote.

1. It is none of my business of when a person decides to come out of the closet

That being said, he sits there and endorses laws that attack who he is. I wonder how depraved mentally you have to be to compartmentalize that.
