In a time when the daft notion of Republicans running plants in Democratic primaries actually seems credible — see, e.g., how the example I led with above is, like the below, _also_ from North Carolina — vetting done _for_ Dems _before_ voting begins needs to happen early, and must be thorough.

If he resigns or gets removed, Dems could replace him with a more reliable Dem
