If Finchem loses in AZ - down by 109k votes rn - every "America First" SecState candidate will have lost.

This might be the most important election result in American history, as it was a direct contest between democracy and authoritarianism.

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.
 
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.

Agreed! I was more worried about that than The House or Senate. The States was where the skullfuck 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.

In fairness, most state legs are so gerrymandered already that it's almost impossible for them to get redder even if there was a red wave.

Iowa was a fucking bloodbath second only to Florida, and yet they only picked up 1 or 2 seats in each chamber in the state house because there weren't any more to take. They basically have everything outside of Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, and the college towns already.

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.
