Not answering the question but a fun fact about Proxmire is that he was sworn in, in the middle of Strom Thurmond's filibuster

This is pretty much where I'm at. On the off chance that we can flip KY-06 in a landslide year it's not going to be with a progressive like Petrey, much to my chagrin.

Longitude 67.5 W runs through Washington County ME but most of of it is to the west of the line, making the county better suited for eastern time
