.................“I think it’s the No. 1 issue. It’s the underlying issue of this race,” Pfaff said in an interview. “Jan. 6 opened up the window into his soul. And what we saw there, is we saw something that is unfortunately very dark.”

Pfaff acknowledges he is trailing the Republican, who has a vast fundraising edge.

Van Orden’s campaign declined to make him available for an interview with The Associated Press.

Some voters in the 3rd Congressional District, a sprawling landscape of dairy farms, small manufacturing hubs and college towns, have sharply negative views of what happened Jan. 6. But that doesn’t mean they blame Van Orden......................

1. We also have one of those rat bastards running in my district in Ohio.

I'm hoping the older voters (even though republican) will not vote for a traitor. But I won't be surprised if he wins.

2. Is CD3 in WI a Newly Drawn District? Cook Has it Rated Likely Republican.

That seems weird if a Dem holds the seat now.

3. I don't know about WI but this district in Ohio is newly drawn

and Gerry mandered.

4. Yes.

In 2012 they gerrymandered it so that it was pretty strongly Dem (because of a couple of Dem college towns in the rural parts). Now they've gerrymandered again, weakening it a bit.

And the GQP are putting a ton of money on the insurrectionist.
