A lot of these races highlight how Democrats are the party of the cities and suburbs, GOP is the party of the rural areas. To be more competitive Dems need to start listening to what rural voters want and how they can cater to them. We're losing way too many great candidates because of these rural voters. :francis:

Ohio is literally red as fukk outside of the big cities......

This speaks to what I've been saying.

The biggest rip behind the divide in america comes to down to how rural towns differ from metropolitan cities.

What works economically and socially in small towns, doesnt work well in big cities, and vice versa. Of course this only a surface level analysis.

You can't reason with those rural voters. Medicaid for all should be a huge issue for them but they voted for Republicans who dismantled ACA in droves.

They should hate education funding getting cut all the time by Republicans because their children have no chance to make anything of themselves, but they vote for Republicans in droves.

Trump's tariffs are fukking with jobs left and right including small farms...you get the point.

Dems just need to energize their base to come out and vote. Run campaigns based on liberal policies and people will show up to vote. Cities make up the bulk of almost any given state's population. If those people show up to vote, they have the numbers to overwhelm the rural vote.

It's not about abandoning black folks. It's about getting a moderate conventional stance on illegal immigration. me and @∆y = f(∆x) have been harping about this for a few years. Beto would have won Texas if he didn't talk about ending ICE. All that caping he did on the border got him what? Cruz still got 40% of latino vote. The only time Trump's approval rating really dropped amongst his base over the last two years is when he started flirting with a more moderate immigration stance in early 2017. Dems are killing themselves by continually moving to the left on this issue. White people of all political persuasions are willing to vote against their own well-being (taxes/healthcare) over this issue. I wish Obama got this shyt done so we don't have to deal with this boogey man anymore.
It's about Black people. Its always about Black people. All of these states with like 96% white people said the same shyt as Beto, had a republican in the house and voted democrat and stated it was because of immigration and Trump. All of these states with a lot of Blacks almost as always go opposite of Black people while Northerners act like Black people don't exist.


It's always about Black people. Ya'll love making up excuses but it's about Black people. The one issue, whites and white supremacists tend to agree on. The negro problem.

Yo, stacey is right there. From 7 points behind to 2 points and moving
I felt she might pull an upset earlier but if ATL coming in didn't propel her over the top...:sadcam:

But it's crazy how close these people got tonight. It just goes to show you that the numbers are out there. People just have to get off the bullshyt and hit the voting booth. Too much bullshyt. Woke dudes saying don't vote.:gucci: Black Republicans.:scust: People thinking voting doesn't matter.:gucci: The right does not have any of that crap going on. It's like dudes wanna look for ways to talk themselves out of progress. shyt is crazy selfish in my eyes.:mjcry:
