But no. The people of Maine elect her every six years like clockwork.

(73,457 posts)5. GOP senators don't care what their constituents think.
These senators can rig their elections, they make a great salary, have unbelievable perks,
fabulous healthcare and retirement. Plus all the bribe money from billionaires and China,
Saudi, Russia.
Who cares what the people think. The senators have money and power.
Which is all they care about.
