No need to get too upset over this year's elections. They don't mean much.

Sure, it's concerning but you should use the concern now to fortify for the mid-terms. Even if you lose the mid-terms, it's not like that (and this year's) is not too unexpected.

Get involved with your local party/candidates and help them out as much as you can. Hactivism doesn't work so well for liberals and really doesn't work for conservatives so much. You gotta go out and make contact else you're just bitching.

Here in Tarrant County, TX we just elected a democrat state senator because, like retards, we had two Republicans splitting the vote and around 17% turnout. We got what we deserve.

Dumb for sure.

But that does not mean the democrats have some winning message.

It is wild to project nationwide results a year from now based on returns in mostly blue states and NYC. If anything, it’s a good thing for the GOP that Dems keep doubling down on these nut jobs.

Are you saying someone got elected without getting 50% of the vote?

The majority of the wins for Ds were in areas that Trump lost in just 12 months ago. In that time and the four years prior, the exodus from these blue states is not an insignificant factor. California will probably lose 5 seats in 2030, Illinois probably 4 seats. These seats will be picked up by red Texas and Florida and a few others. Blue states lost voters, most of those voters were Rs or Is. So those states will go more blue for the next several election cycles. No surprises last night.

Just shock and outrage for clicks/views. In context, expecting NY,NJ to suddenly become conservative was a pipe dream and everyone knew it. The Northeast is is a contest with the West Coast for delusional voters racing toward communism. Always has been. Always will be.

Of course they don't but those who get their message out more will do better. We can't forget that and assume just because we won a general doesn't mean they're won't be a backlash at some point.

I'm starting to believe the opposite.

Continuing to push the radicalized policy and messaging is only normalizing it to the eyes of the public, and there is no concerted public pushback by the GOPe to effectively deploy counter-measures.

While we're already more polarized than ever, one side is doubling down and actually advancing their agenda, while the side that holds all the power and could change things right now, sits on their hands and pontificates.

If you ever needed proof that the Establishment Uniparty exists and that the spineless GOPe is nothing but a Controlled Opposition force, take a look around right now in this moment. It's on full display.

I’m not upset that the voters are full of the dumbass as much as I’m upset that rinos/moderates are unable to see we are at war. If the imbeciles would just support a president elected by a majority of people, but no.

Trying not to melt, but I think the GOP has got to address voter turnout in off year elections. Sane people complain and are outraged about the rogue judges and school boards doing crazy things. The majority of those elections are held during off year elections...i.e. the 3 supreme court judges in PA that allowed the steal in 2020...all retained by huge margins because conservatives didn't vote. Mississippi losing the veto proof majority in the state house (granted there is a republican governor), Georgia flipping 2 red public service commission elections. There were 13 flips from red to blue in the VA state house. These elections matter and the GOP has got to do a better job of convincing their voters to show up more than every 4 years to elect a president.

NYC elections have always been a nothing burger.

People in NYC don’t live life like most of us.

Conservatives always splinter unfortunately. Too much independent thinking I guess.
