Scott Brown won a special election. It was a big deal, until the regular election.
Right. Except Brown’s Jan 2010 special election victory was a precursor to the Tea Party wave in the 2010 mid-terms when Republicans gained 63 seats in the House.
Anyway, it’s not like Trump was in PA personally campaigning for the guy. Oh, wait...
