    Agreed. I don’t know much about the source but it might just be an indication of the author’s intent, if there is a human author.

    There is a much better image choice to be used and it would not take much effort.

    Update: Saw the pic, read the article, but didn’t realize the forum until afterwards. Will just move and pretend.

      I just noticed other articles about California and Michigan. They also used Newsome and Whitmer as the image. But then another for Georgia did not use Kemp as the image.

        Sounds like there is a motive. Typically I sample the headlines and read a site’s “About Us” page before diving in.

        It was early, I saw a familiar face, and started reading. Also this very subgroup is a tad bit too general for my taste. Never again.

        All three have one thing in common: named as potential replacements.
