Incredibly sad. This election just won't be the same.

No it won't.

His poor children...to lose him on Father's Day weekend like this. Father's Day will forever be ruined for them. He's the age of my mom. I had no idea that he had diabetes.

What a horrible loss, especially in this election year. I was looking forward to the ol' whiteboard on election night.
