When I was getting all that hateful transphobic campaign mail from the Barbie running for my state rep, I wanted to see her defeated. And she did by a large margin! The D incumbent won her first election in 2020 by something like 26 votes. This time she won by over 1100. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’s not alone even in Florida. They’re there, even if your points are also true about turnout. I’m very curious about the youth numbers this year.

Greg Abbott was AG in Texas and if you polled voters who their current AG is immediately after they finished casting their ballot with the incumbent's name right there, 90% of them wouldn't be able to tell you. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhyteboar Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Is it ghoulish to wonder if Republicans would have won some of these close races if they hadn't been so hell-bent on killing their own voters by peddling lies about the vaccines? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massdriver Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 3 hours ago, Commissar SFLUFAN said: Absolutely not in the least. It was an incredibly dangerous, irresponsible, foolhardy, bone-headed, stupid gambit that could've had absolutely disastrous consequences had luck -- and make no mistake that luck played a huge role in it -- gone the other way. It should absolutely never be even remotely considered again, and anyone who suggests it should be dragged into the streets and summarily executed. I know a Trump zealot that was aware of this and the fact these trump candidates lost has him questioning his support for Trump!! This is a big deal. This guy would have marched on the capital had he been there. It was still a horrible idea and should never be done again, but between the vote in Florida and these results, Trump is losing some support amongst the GOP. I don’t think it’ll be enough, but I’ll take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cortez Masto carries today's batch of mail ballots from CLARK COUNTY by 27%.
