Well, Mondale should be happy

I hope to explore her reaction to this, as she did, in fact, try to court the position earlier. Though whoever succeeds Bell will face scrutiny, varying of course on who it is, assuming he resigns due to health or dies.

Poor timing in away, OOC-wise, but note Prejean didn't send that in response to Stevenson's tweet. It's a general thing.

Scotty's too docile to continue responding. But as TellTale games often say: "Scotty will remember that."

Oof, welp.

I suppose the Republicans have some strength here. The Indy Dems will be an interesting dynamic to see how they choose to vote on healthcare measures then.

Here's my OC!

Character Information Sheet


NS Nation Name: Pacce
Character Name: Rosa Blumenthal
Character Gender: Female
Character Age: 37
Character Height: 5’7”
Character Weight: 156 lbs
Character Position/Role/Job: Representative from New York (NY-10)
Appearance: Image
Character State of Origin: New York
Character Party Affiliation: Democratic
Main Strengths: Assertive, ambitious, intelligent, quick-witted.
Main Weaknesses: Condescending, younger than most representatives, first year in Congress, no political experience aside from activism, short temper.
Biography:
Rosa was born in 1980 to a businessman and an immigrant. She was brought up in the Jewish faith, and is still a devout Jew. She spent her childhood moving constantly through different Brooklyn neighborhoods until her parents decided to settle down in Borough Park. In high school, Rosa would attend protests for many activist groups, and always wanted to see change in the world. Rosa went to college wanting to be an archaeologist, but after she received her undergraduate degree from New York University, she found her true passion in law. She earned a law degree from Columbia, and became a lawyer.

While at law school, Rosa met Oliver Blumenthal, and the two married a year after they graduated. They set up a law firm together, and are both very successful. Once Rosa was an established lawyer, her father, Julian, passed away from a stroke. Rosa’s mother, Emilia, struggled with his loss and eventually moved in with Rosa to be closer to the ones she loved.

In late 2015, Rosa’s mother encouraged her to make the change she wanted to see in the world. Rosa decided to run, not expecting much. The 10th Congressional District had been held by a Democrat for the past twenty-five years, and the incumbent was almost guaranteed a win during the primaries. Miraculously, the incumbent was the suspect in a sexual assault case involving two celebrities, which led to him stepping down from his position. Rosa won the primary, and had a landslide victory during the election. After being elected, she went on several nonsensical Twitter rants that lowered her popularity.

Other Info: Fluent in both English and Spanish, half Puerto Rican.

There is one sneaky provision in there, that the Republican Leader knows he can use to balance the budget

Oh I know you have, it’s just taking me forever to write up a post. I’m trying to be as accurate as possible to not have my characters suffer IC for a mistake I made OOC.

Also, I’m going to do a noticeable change in diction from now on, I just realized I’ve been writing Morton and Cao as if they spoke like me, and not like elderly people in their 70s who went to college. TOO MANY CONTRACTIONS

Long story short, just try not to mention it IC.
