indy's special election

After the death of Rep. Julia Carson a few months ago, Indy has officially replaced her with Tuesday's special election. Andre Carson, grandson of the deceased, has officially taken her place as Congressman of Indiana's 7Th district.

Carson narrowly defeated Republican John Elrod (to the left! to the left!). After noting that Elrod was an attractive candidate, Angela made note of speculation surrounding his sexuality. And like any concerned, and single, constituent I looked for more information. There is quite a bit of question regarding the single State Representative. He is rather favorable to gay rights and marriage which causes considerable contention with the rest of his party. I wonder do we just think he's gay because he's good looking and single?
