Rep. Perry Clark Resigns

Current State Rep. and Senate candidate Perry Clark has resigned his House seat and Speaker Jody Richards has called for a special election the same day as the Senate special.

This will get very interesting very quickly as most special elections usually are solo efforts. How the two campaigns are intertwined will be made more interesting if the Democrats nominate two men and the Republicans nominate two women. I have no speculation on who the Republicans are going to nominate, but would guess that Councilman Ron Weston is will get the nod from the Dems.

UPDATE: Kentucky Kos has picked up the story and is pushing again for Virginia Woodward to get the Dem nomination. Too funny.
