Frank LoBiondo, a Republican congressvarmint from New Jersey has announced that after 20 years in congress he is retiring.

He’s a centrist Republican who voted against the repeal of Obamacare and does not support the tax bill.  He say the extremes in both party are making it hard to govern.  (Yeah, but, we know which party has the majority, right?)

His decision to retire does create a possible opportunity for Democrats.

While Donald Trump won the district in 2016, Barack Obama won it by seven points over Mitt Romney in 2012.

So, here’s another chance.

Thanks to Patrick for the heads up!

UPDATE:

Tonight Ted Poe, Republican of Texas, said he would not seek re-election.  He’s the third Texas Republican this week, and the fifth this year,  who has announced they won’t seek reelection.

Gohmert and Farenthold, we’re waiting.
