We can’t imagine this happens all too often.
Earlier on Tuesday, it was announced that the Democrats captured the House of Representatives in America and that they are set to exert a major institutional check on President Trump, while breaking the Republican monopoly on power and ushering in a younger, more female and more racially diverse political generation.
It will be the first time that the party will have had control of the House in eight years.
And as big a deal as this is, it’s definitely not the most interesting story to come out of American politics today.
A dead Nevada brothel owner and reality TV star won a seat in the state legislature on Tuesday less than a month after dying.
And he won quite comfortably too.
Dennis Hof defeated Democratic opponent Lesia Romanov on Tuesday in Nevada’s deep-red Assembly District 36, which President Trump won in 2016 with 68 percent support, according to The Hill.
As a result of this surprising outcome, county officials have said they would appoint a replacement candidate from the same party for his seat.
Hof had nicknamed himself the “Trump from Pahrump”, after the town where he lived in Nevada.
