When you’re voted into office, whether at the local, state, or federal level, you’re there to represent the people in your district or state.
It’s not about you.
Six Republican Indiana Senate incumbents learned the hard way on Tuesday night when they lost their primary.
All six voted against redrawing Indiana’s Congressional map:
President Donald Trump vowed to unseat those who voted no.
In all honesty, I wonder how much Trump’s endorsement had to do with the wins. It wouldn’t shock me if the voters chose the challengers because their senators didn’t listen to them.
The Indiana House voted to pass the new map, 57-41.
It should have passed the Senate, which has a Republican supermajority.
But the Senate rejected the map, 31-19, after 21 Republicans voted with the Democrats.
In December, Deery insisted, “Living in a free constitutional republic means we empower voters to make those decisions.”
Well, it seems like your constituents, the voters, wanted you to vote to redraw the map.
