To repeat my previously stated points:

- This increases the pressure on Blouin and Fallon to name running mates
- Outside the 1st CD, the top GOP race is Ag Secretary, which will be
less of a draw than Democratic governor. This reduces the chances that
Blouin will do the right thing and say VETO in public pre-primary - gotta
get that crossover vote...
- Locally it means Republicans will be drawn to the Democratic courthouse
contests...
