I couldn't have voted for either of them since I'm not in that district, but I would have voted for Matheson had I been given the opportunity. I was really watching Mia, though, and I've got to say that she waged a pretty dirty campaign. I was not impressed by it. So you see, in this particular case, it really wasn't a matter of Democrats being a bunch of racist, misogynist bigots. In this case, the Republican vote as well as the Democratic vote went to Matheson, and with good reason.
