Tuesday state election results breaking in favor of Democrats.
Kentucky Democrat Democrat govenor is re-elected in a red state.
Approval for abortion rights voted in red state Ohio
It appears Democrats will take the house and Senate in Virginia despite Republicans putting focus on taking both house and senate.

I’m just glad the commercials are over.

 

[lennypartiv]

The election for Speaker of the House is over too. Repubican Mike Johnson won. Hopefully he can make us a moral country once again.

If people are this dumb to vote for Dems at this point, this country deserves what’s coming.

If people are this dumb to vote for Dems at this point, this country deserves what’s coming.

If we see the same kind of corruption next year then the country is going to begin falling into lawless chaos and possibly open rebellion against anything coming out of DC. Stupid bastards seem to think that because they control the media message they can FORCE obedience on millions of people.

Pretty good night for America

• On a strong night for Democrats, CNN projects that voters approved a ballot measure to protect abortion rights in the Ohio constitution, backed the reelection of Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear in deep-red Kentucky and helped Democrats sweep control of the Virginia legislature in a major blow to GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin.
• Abortion rights figured strongly in several races – in yet another sign abortion access is a key issue across party lines ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
• The GOP prevailed in Mississippi, where CNN projects Gov. Tate Reeveswill win reelection after Democratic challenger Brandon Presley conceded the race.
• Democratic candidates made history in Philadelphia and Rhode Island. Cherelle Parker is projected to become Philadelphia's first female mayor, while Gabe Amo will become the first Black person to represent Rhode Island after winning the special congressional election. In other races, Ohio voters are projected to approve a measure legalizing recreational marijuana and Houston's mayoral race is heading to a runoff.

Ok, let’s talk seriously for a moment. No gloating, no gnashing of teeth. Let’s talk seriously.

America is a Representative Republic. The people elected are supposed to Represent the will of the Voters. The people.

To Represent those people, you have to listen to those people. You can’t dictate what they should believe, must believe, or whatever. You have to listen to what they do believe. And you have to represent those views, even if you disagree with them. Imagine it this way. You hire an architect to design a building for your business. You tell him what you want, you describe what you see.

The Architect comes back and says he saw a big round building, and he just loves it. You’re not going to build a big round building. You’re not going with those designs. You’re not doing anything but objecting to paying this guy. He didn’t do what you wanted, he didn’t take care of the client. If he works for you, to save the client, you’re going to have his desk cleared out and have him on the street holding a box of personal items with his last check in hand.

A Lawyer, Doctor, and all the rest represent the client. They carry out the wishes of the client as far as they legally can. Failure to do so is considered malpractice.

But Politicians are supposed to ignore the wishes of the people who elected them, ignore the views of those who elected them, and just do what a bunch of activists outside their state and district want. Or else.

If a majority of the people want to make abortion legal, then vote to make abortion legal. Don’t insult those people and don’t tell those people they’re not gonna get it because you have bigger fish to fry. Represent the people who hired you for the job. Take care of your client, the people who voted for you.

If you do not notice the nation dividing to the point where violence is becoming the norm for Progs than you cannot see. Kennedy said what you can do for the nation. It is definitely what your nation can do for you now. The selfishness and self-entitlement are getting to the point of being a sickness. Elite Republicans are in cahoots with Progs. Stupid Prog women are setting their gender up to be treated like the past as the decline of a nation brings survival at some point and primal ways.

Nonsense.

What’s immoral is jeopardizing the health and lives of women with reckless, irresponsible abortion bans.

The sooner the gop takes the abortion issues away from the dems the sooner things will return to a more even keel.

How many lost elections will it take for the gop to realize abortion is a losing issue?

Red state legislatures should all be moving to legalize the utility of abortion, don't even wait to put it on the ballot. If their holy-roller backers don't like it they can stay home.

Pretty good night for America. Looks like the Republican message of make America suck isn’t resonating. Looks like the 2024 election will be a blood bath for pubs. Maybe they’ll move away from grievance politics and back to working on solutions after 6 straight years of failure. I know.. optimistic of me.

How many times do you need to keep getting knocked to the floor, MAGA? Over and over again, you keep losing. And over and over again, you keep lying to yourself that it’s everybody else’s fault except your own and - especially - your Orange God.

This country needs a healthy conservative alternative to the Democrats. But right now, the Republican Party is anything but that. You’ve become a party of batshit crazy conspiracy loons, enthralled with your grifting messiah who uses you as a wallet, trapped in a media echo chamber that tells you what you want to hear, and driving away anyone who doesn’t slavishly adhere to your narrow ideological Dear Leader devotion, ie “RINOs”.

At a time when Democrats can’t decide what women and a men are, spending is out of control, inflation is the highest in four decades, and their progressives want to put everyone into a racial box, voters are looking at you and saying “Nah, I’ll stick with that instead of the bizarre shitshow that the GOP has become.

The GOP will keep getting the electoral crap beaten out of them until they decide to grow up and become a serious political party dedicated to winning again, rather than this bizarre cult that triggers their lizard brains because feelingz.

2024 is there for the taking for the Republicans. Almost all of the candidates on stage at the Republican debate would almost certainly beat Biden. But instead, the Orange Cult will nominate Trump again because “He’s a fighter! He really won in 2020! White grievance! Wah wah wah!” And the continual MAGA losses since 2017 will most likely continue.

In Tuesday night’s off-year elections, the incumbent Democratic governor in Kentucky — a state President Joe Biden lost by 26 points — handily won reelection. Democrats not only rebuffed Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s bid for total control of the state legislature by keeping the state Senate — they flipped the state House, too. And the party held a state Supreme Court seat in the nation’s largest Electoral College battleground of Pennsylvania. …​

the results on Tuesday — taken together with a string of special elections throughout the year that showed Democratic candidates outperforming Biden’s vote shares in districts across the country — serve as a powerful counterpoint to the party’s doom-and-gloom over the president’s poll numbers.​

Democrats’ victories won’t make those polls go away, but they should prompt a rethinking of the current political moment, with a year to go until the next general election.​

Democrats romp, Youngkin flops: 4 takeaways from Tuesday’s election

Joe Biden’s party has had a very strong year at the ballot box. Whether it extends to the president in 2024 is another matter.

YES!
It's a giant conspiracy directed by Soros.
Trump tried to stop it and look what it got him?!

Geez...MAGA lost...AGAIN.
Why are you threatening violence?
