      How about Ohio? For the last few cycles it was a 12-4 R/D split with 46% of the votes on average going to Democratic House candidates.

      Perhaps the most surprising thing about the 2022 election to me is that Ohio's House split went from 12-4 R to 10-5 R (we lost a seat following the 2020 census). This was helped by flipping the 1st District, around Cincinnati, to the Democrat Greg Landsman. It was also aided in large part by the defeat of an idiot MAGA candidate in the newly drawn 13th district by Amilia Sykes. The 13th had been Tim Ryan's House district in Ohio but after redrawn lines would have given him zero chance to win in a district he actually lived in, he decided to lose a Senate race instead of a House race.

      Ohio did its small part in blowing the "red wave in the house" narrative out of the water. About Sherrod Brown though...

        Well she won't be Speaker anyways...unless the GOP goes into full revolt ;^)

        There is no reason for her to be Minority Leader because nothing Qevin (or whoever) does has zero chance of having any real impact on anything. Time to cultivate the next round of leadership.

        • Steny Hoyer also stepping down from House Dem leadership; he's endorsing Hakeem Jeffries for Minority Leader (pardon the pun).

              • Is there any Democrat that can wrangle the caucus?

                I'm trying to think of one and I'm coming up blank.

                • Jeffries is good...honestly I don't see the worry they are a minority party that will never vote with Qevin on anything.

                  Raskin could do it too but I don't ever see him as Speaker so no point.

                  • Why is investigating Hunter Biden a federal government issue? Isn't that an FBI thing? Also, it's hilarious to go after him after what Kushner and Steve Mnuchin pulled. It's always projection with these ****ing clowns.

                      Some of the "Republicans in Ruin" speculation is pretty funny. Where a tiny handful of R's switch sides to get something done, or a more than tiny handful of Q nutcases make it impossible... Qevin is in an amazing spot- to fail. Literally damned if you do, damned if you don't.

                        • Cured and military ballots are coming in now for CO 03. Frisch has cut the lead to 557 with three larger counties remaining and three small counties. Two of the three larger counties went red on election night, but he’s been gaining everywhere so far on cured ballots. At the very least, it’ll be going to a recount.

                            • So, Pelosi-Hoyer-Clyburn out, replaced by who? Jeffries, Clark and Aguilar?

                              (83+83+82) - (59+52+43) = 248 - 154 = 94 years (edited be I cannot math)

                                The same reason we wondered about how easy it would be to pick off a couple moderate republicans to form a coalition. Discipline is important.
