Senate Looks To Be Going Red.

[jackflash]

The wild RNC predictions that they will hold 58 seats in the senate this election cycle was all hype. It's down to 54 seats MAX for the Pubs & one can safely bet that if the Pubs do get 54 seats, one or two of those seats will be filled with RINOS. The DNC/RNC prefers to keep the senate & House of Reps as close to 50/50 so they can control the sitting POTUS. There is no chance in my opinion of the Pubs taking the senate seats in Nevada nor Arizona. The Pubs COULD POSSIBLY land the senate seat in New Mexico & I say that just because of the heavy Latino/Catholic density in that state. So I see it for the Pubs a ball park figure somewhere between 50-54 with a realistic seat count for the Pubs of 52 seats with a sprinkling of RINOS mixed into the mix. I sure hope the house of Reps goes more Red than the senate looks to be going @ current.

Possibly red, not probably yet.

I would love to see Kaine lose in Virginia, but it isn't even close enough to pretend will happen.

I was hoping that Youngkin would have run for the seat but it did not come to pass.

I think 54 sounds right.

A Republican led Senate would really limit the damage a Kamala Regime could do.

No more leftard Supreme Court justices or cabinet officials to ruin the power balance in Washington.

 

[JohnDB]

Meaning Trump will likely have his 100 days to appoint his cabinet and department heads to various positions.

FBI
DOJ
Attorney General
FARM CREDIT
Dept of Interior
Dept of Government Efficiency
Chief of Staff
Joint Chiefs
military
And etc

Because the Republicans have a massively unfair advantage in the Senate.

If you add up the last three senate elections (in other words every seat has been voted for in those 6 years) the last time the Democrats didn't have a majority of the votes was 2002

Right now they have a 15.6 million majority. That gets the Republicans 49 out of 100 seats.

No wonder the right like the current system. One presidential election majority vote in the 1990s, 2000s, 2010s and 2020s.... but the majority of the Supreme Court, getting the Senate half the time too.... it's easy life when you don't need to actually get a majority ever.

In Pennsylvania, we Republicans have an outstanding candidate, Dave McCormick, against an empty suit (Bob Casey), but it's too close to call. There is an axiom in Pennsylvania politics, "If the Republican is ahead by four percent or less on election night, the Democrats will steal it in Philadelphia." Count on it.

The Senate and House will be red which is good news for all American citizens.

 

[JohnDB]

The Senate is the ONLY legislative seat that the Democrats have an opportunity to control ever since the days of Tip O'Neal have vanished.

The Democrats used to represent the rural American population. And they controlled the House and Senate. But then they switched unbeknownst to the people at first. Their agendas became extremely urban in focus with big businesses and vices that focused on stupifying their constituents.

The Republicans became more focused on the common man and rural independence and self reliance. Small businesses and lighter tax burdens. Cottage industry is extremely common in rural America with the selling of services, labor, and manufactured consumable goods. (Bake sale and lemonaide stand type items)

Dunno why the switch but it's what is.

The Dems are in big trouble in the rust belt...

It will be 50 to 52 red. Means nothing if Walz is VP.
