Big time money is being poured into local and state level races to states blue.

To be honest, its a great plan. The GOPE has ignored the state and local elections for a long time.


Wake up or we will see the nation flip permanently blue

State and local elections is what the GOP has banked on for a long time. You are wrong about them ignoring them. That’s what the Dems have done for a long time.

What? GOP has dominated local races for a decade. I want to say at least 60% of state level offices are republican. Democrats only compete in national elections.

Not a bad plan. Tale the statehouses to redistrict.to loosen up GOP control of the House.

That’s just wrong. The GOP has a stranglehold on state legislatures at the moment. The reason they have faired so well nationally is their ground up efforts, especially those predating the last redistricting.

Two things are happening that could change the tide: Gill v. Whitmore, which involves partisan apportionment, could fundamentally change the usefulness of such tactics; and democrats winright afround this census and do the exact same thing back for the next ten years.

Hopefully the good guys maintain control.

And the reason and import of Trump stacking the Courts. It all starts there.

That said...Dem money can only go so far; or even Republican money for that matter. Supporting BLM/Antifa and Open Border Policy and importation/Government subsidization of Islamic Radicals is going to be a hard sell when the issues are CLEARLY DEFINED.

Hillary had a ton of cash; Jeb! too.

What? Is it 2008? The state elections have overwhelmingly gone Republican over the last nine years. Not even debatable.

Not. The amount of money spent on a local level is near zero from the RNC

Good for the Democrats! It is time that they get a job and move out of grandma’s house.

This is what GOP started doing in the 90's. It's ridiculous it's taken the Democrats two decades to do this.

I guess I can register as a Democrat.
Run for some stupid small time political position.
Run a campaign hard enough to lose.
Pocket money.
Change back to the Republican Party.
