North Dakota Legislator Dies in Plane Crash but her Name Remains on Primary Ballot

North Dakota Representative Liz Conmy (D-Fargo) was killed in a plane crash on April 25. She was running for re-election in the June primary. It is too late to remove her name from the ballot, but it is expected that write-in candidates will file in the primary. See this story.

North Dakota Legislator Dies in Plane Crash but her Name Remains on Primary Ballot — 34 Comments

  1. North Dakota elects two representatives and one senator from each legislative district. Four year terms are staggered for both the House and Senate. In presidential mid-terms, odd-numbered districts elect all three legislators. Political parties can choose their nominees by convention, with an opportunity for challengers to petition on to the primary ballot.

    Conmy’s death occurred in a narrow 62-day window before the primary, otherwise the D-NPL party could have made a replacement nominee. Oddly, the party will be able to replace Conmy for remainder of her current term (until January 2027). To be nominated as a write-in requires the number of votes greater than the petition requirement (165 for this district). Not an impossible task, but requires some organization. North Dakota does not have voter registration and therefore does not have partisan registration. There are no statewide Democratic nomination contests, so there is really no reason to bother voting in the Democratic primary. There is a Republican contest for US Representative, so some voters will vote in the Republican primary for that reason alone.

  3. BAN has banned real news links, including Conservapedia, Babylon Bee, and NOT THE BEE. Try it yourself and see.

    Shame on Richard Left Winger and Bill Red Path for that, and for allowing the nAZi-666 spambot to keep falsely calling our Lord and Savior Donald Trump a “tyrant” and thus directly inciting more assassination attempts against the greatest POTUS ever!

    Free Speech is great, but that is yelling fire in a crowded theater! It clearly crosses the line and incites assassination attempts!

    Look up Achievements of Donald Trump at Conservapedia! So Awesome!

  4. Somehow, fake news Woke Pedo Joke Wikipedia links are allowed here, but not real news Conservapedia. That’s not even free speech. The double standards are obvious here.

  5. Even foxnews d0t c0m links go straight to memoryhole. What gives? Only leftist links allowed?

  6. Thank God for Ron DeSantis and Florida. They are going to push the redistricting battle in the right direction and, let us all pray, thus win the war. We do not need the demon rats taking control of congress yet again. They have done more than enough damage to our country already.

    And thank you Jesus for the unexpected good news from the Virginia Supreme Court, even though it is not yet final.

  7. Virginia Supreme Court upholds pause on Democrats’ stupid new map

    Good news, everyone! Take a look at this post from former Republican state Senator Ken Cuccinelli:

    (NOTE: look for the headline at the start of this message at Not The Bee, we’re not allowed to post the link here)

    Here is the text of the Virginia Supreme Court’s decision:

    (NOTE: look for the headline at the start of this message at Not The Bee, we’re not allowed to post the link here)

    According to the local ABC (fake news) affilliate,

  8. Part 2

    “The Supreme Court of Virginia has denied a request from Democrats and the state to pause last week’s ruling by a Tazewell County judge, which blocked the State Board of Elections from certifying the results of the April 21 redistricting referendum.” (End of fake news source quote)

    Tazewell County Circuit Judge Jack Hurley had already blocked the Gerrymandering scheme before this vote, ruling that the whole thing was illegal on procedural grounds and that changing congressional districts this way required following strict constitutional amendment procedures.

    This was almost inevitable, but we’re pretty stoked that the Virginia Supreme Court came through on this one!

    One more statement from (fake news source) Newsweek:

  9. Part 3 and final:

    “The justices’ choice to keep the injunction in place signals the court may be open to nullifying the election as broader challenges to the amendment continue to unfold.” (end of quote from fake news source)

    Translation: Ya done messed up, Dems! (End of Davy Crockett at Not the Bee)

    further translation: Dems is short for Demon Rats !!!

  10. Amen and Hallelujah! Unexpected good ruling!

  11. We need to unite as a nation and people at a time line this and all support our President and thank Him and praise Him and pray for and to Him! Trump Bless America and America Bless Trump!

  12. Trump is the Second Coming of Jesus on April 25, 2026 at 6:22 pm said:

    Yet another assassination attempt against our Lord and Savior Trump tonight!

    Occupy Demon Rats on April 25, 2026 at 6:26 pm said:

    That’s to be expected when you have the real globalist, communist, and treasonous tyrants and their dupes, plus troll morons like the one that programs the nAZi-666 spambot, constantly spreading lies that Liberator Trump is a tyrant, when he’s actually the opposite.

    Tyrants frequently get assassinated, as they should. Allowing these disgusting lies to be spread here is thus directly encouraging more of these assassination attempts against our precious and holy President!

  13. These evildoers will not be satisfied unless and until they get to crucify Jesus Trump again!

  14. You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs. At least eggs have come back down pricewise since Trump has been back in office.

    Also, those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything.

  15. Former FBI Director James Comey indicted for last year’s “86 47” stunt after newest assassination attempt

    Cardinal Pritchard at Not The Bee
    Apr 28, 2026

    James Comey is getting indicted again.

    This time not for lying under oath (he was charged for that last fall), but for his “8647” stunt.

    From Fox News:

    “BREAKING: Former FBI Director James Comey has been indicted again in relation to his ’86 47′ seashell post on Instagram last year, sources tell Fox’s David Spunt.

    86, in the restaurant world, means to get rid of or kill something from a menu, while 47 refers to the 47th president of the United States, President Trump.

    Comey was interviewed by Secret Service and federal investigators last year after the incident, though at the time no charges were filed.”

    But now, another man tried to “86” 47.

    Here’s Fox News with more:

    “BREAKING: James Comey has been indicted by a grand jury for his “8647” post from last year, just DAYS after yet ANOTHER assassination attempt on President Trump

    MUCH deserved

    This clown was dogwhistling for one of his deranged followers to take out President Trump.

    LOCK HIM UP”

    Good luck with your second indictment, James!

    I love how dumb our world is.

    Here are Democrats, who’ve spent the better part of the past 15 months crying “No Kings,” giving a standing ovation to the literal king of the United Kingdom:

    I GUESS IT’S NO KINGS … EXCEPT THE ONE WE DECLARED INDEPENDENCE FROM!

    Videos @ not the bee

  18. If Trump was a tyrant, the nAZi-666 spambot would be deprogrammed,it’s programmer would be dead or tortured in a a secret prison, and this website would be offline.

    Duh!

  19. DANGEROUS NUMBERS – 1/ 2 [AS IN 2 IS MORE THAN 1 – DEMOCRACY – MAJORITY RULE] / 13 ORIGINAL STATES /50 STATES/ 86 WHATEVER / 100 SENS / 435 REPS ETC ???

  20. Stick to defending your lies about Liberator Trump, falsely calling him a tyrant and thus trying to incite yet more assassination attempts against him, after yet another one just happened, spambot.

    Sham on your programmer, and shame on this site for continuing to let you yell fire in a crowded theater.

  21. Given his military and law enforcement background, there’s no doubt at all what James Corney meant.

  22. From Chuck DeVore:

    Grok what does the military or law enforcement mean when they say to “86” a person?

    “In military or law enforcement slang, to “86” a person typically means to remove, eliminate, or k*ll them. The term originates from restaurant lingo, where “86” meant to cancel an order or indicate an item was no longer available, often due to being out of stock. In a more serious context like military or law enforcement, it can be used as a euphemism for taking someone out of action, whether through arrest, neutralization, or, in extreme cases, k*lling. The usage depends heavily on context and intent, but it generally implies decisively dealing with a target or threat.”

  23. “86” in military terminology generally means to remove, cancel, discard, or render unusable. It’s used as shorthand in operational, logistical, and informal contexts to indicate that something should be eliminated, denied, or gotten rid of.

    Bear in mind there had already been multiple assassination attempts against President Trump when Corney posted his assassination exhortations.

    In addition to all the other ways the Derp State, of which Corney is a key player, has tried to 86 47.

    So, yeah.

  24. Taken from the telephone dial, 86 translates to TO (Take Out). In the FBI and military circles that means kill.

  25. A porn parody of this site’s comments would be retard fetish porn. The actual site comments themselves may well also be Retard fetish porn. Just saying.
