I don’t understand the argument. They both have less than Trump.

So people voted for Trump but not Lake, right?

The last thing the RINOs in the Senate want is someone like Kari Lake to be able to vote against their uniparty garbage. Of course they're silent about it.

I still don’t see what I’m missing..

3,149,258 votes for President
3,128,471 votes for Senate

They both have less than Trump but more than Harris. So some Trump voters don’t vote for Lake.

I'm definitely quoting this before it's edited. No wonder every other state makes fun of Louisiana education.

It is a little odd, but after doing the math not as shady as it first looks.

Total presidential votes from that photo are 3,149,258

Total Senate votes are 3,128,471.


So it does appear that a percentage of Trump voters did not vote for Lake, and either voted for Gallego or Quintana

The election was a week ago, apparently Arizona election officials are all fricking idiots who are too stupid to feel shame.

What an embarrassment this group of people are, showing their blatant ignorance and lack of organization to the entire world every single election.

Lost causes with zero sense of pride.

I just got the same figures. Some voters didn't vote down ballot apparently, or Gallego is more appealing to them than Harris.

Lake was underperforming Trump 5-8% pretty much the entire cycle. The polling underrepresented overall GOP share but the gap between the two has always been there

This would be suspicious if they were close throughout but they weren't. This is chalk

So is this Gallegos guy going to be a leper in the Senate? With his drug cartel ties, who is going to want anything to do with him and give him any kind of influence? Pretty gush 6yr gig.

Pretty sure drug cartel ties are more of an endrosement than a stigma. He will probably be SML in '28
