“Election officials have opened an investigation into whether the wife of potential U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker cast an illegal ballot when she voted in Georgia’s presidential race last fall from her home in Texas,” the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

“The investigation will look into allegations that Julie Blanchard violated state election laws requiring voters to be Georgia residents.”

Plenty of baggage in that line of work. Although I guess for Republicans that isn't necessarily a deal breaker. And that's sad.

But that the "baggage" mentioned above will destroy him in a general election. He's had some issues w/ money, and threats against his wife. He has been diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder (aka Split Personality Disorder).

I guess it would be poor form for me to suggest that voting for him would be like voting twice. You have to wonder, though, which personality is going to show up for which crucial votes.

they are still looking at whether or not Trump broke the law by trying to pressure Georgia SOS to "find" more votes for him.
