Call me naïve, but I had expected the exact opposite with the political polarization over health care legislation, property taxes, budget cuts and so on. From Lee Newspapers’ Mike Dennison: In 13 of the 26 contested Senate races, Democrats have yet to field a candidate… Republicans have fielded candidates in 21 of the 26 Senate races, and in six of those, there are multiple Republican candidates, setting up contested primarily elections on June 8. In the House, Democrats are lacking candidates in 33 of the 100 races, while Republicans have come up short so far in 27 spots.
