It is sad that she is dead, but she should have retired a while ago.
yeah I sorta feel bad as Im almost happy just because that seat needs to be vacated. I wish she had just retired so that I could be sadder and have more of a feeling of how great this representative had been. But she made a situation where its like a relief that she died.
Yeah like shes had physical and mental issues for a long time now, you'd think retiring to focus on her health would be a thing.
She should have retired over a decade ago. She’s responsible for her part of all this mess because she kept a seat that could have gone to someone younger for over a decade longer than she should have.
That is if she was in the committee. What would happen if she was no longer a senator? Is the Senate going to keep an unbalanced committee?
