He is not a Dem in any sense of the word, right? I thought he was a Republican who switched to Independent to protest the 2 party system.
He was briefly registered as a Dem, but I thought that was a fraud gimmick to get him seated, right? A Dem resigned his seat, state law said the GOP Governor had to appoint a Dem to replace him, so Achilles (a long-time republican) switched party affiliation to the Dems, and the GOP governor picked him to fill the "Democratic" seat.
