  • Arizona looks to be in the bag for Democrats. Late voting is swinging D like 2018, not R like 2020. I think Dem incumbent Gov Sisolak in Nevada is going to fall just short though, but more importantly for us nationally, Masto is likely going to win.

        We give the electorate a lot of grief, deservedly. But let's give it a big hand. We kept it, Ben. At least for 2 more years.
        Agreed! I was more worried about that than The House or Senate. The States was where the skull**** would start!

        This kind of reminds me of when Howard Dean was chair of the party. The 50 state solution...win in the down ballot races and build from there. The GOP was good at that before Trump.

          Remarkable: this will be the first midterm the party in power hasn't lost a *single* state legislative chamber since 1934.
          That is...wow!

          • Good shot at Nevada now in the Senate? I would breathe a sigh of relief if that happens.

                    During the 2022 primaries, Democrats attempted to boost far-right Republican candidates who they thought would be easier to defeat in a general election. That strategy seems to have worked.

                        Except the flips prove it is more than just "The GOP held serve" which is the common retort. The states that need Blue Waves got them in spades. While the media fawns over FL and their gerrymandered Red Wave the truth is the GOP lost ground all over the map. The Blue Wall that failed in 2016 is back and stronger because in places like Michigan and Pennsylvania there will be no state leg skullduggery.

                        This is more than just "you can't squeeze blood from a turnip".

                        • Rubio seems to be trying to replace McConnell...I am not sure if he means himself or someone else but he definitely is not happy.
