No it’s not. Not everyone who lives in a small white state is insane. If Dems can grab the governor in Kansas, why wouldn’t they be able to get a seat there. Places like Montana, Idaho you’re never gonna get but it is what it is. If Andrew Gillum was Andres Guerrero he’d have won last night. We got Texas within a % point. Reading this thread you’d think the Dems got crushed last night lol. Negativity does no good.
Not really, the senate easy a long shot for Dems this go round because they were only defending 2 seats and Dems lost 2 seats that were already in gop strong hold states where he dem was vulnerable..

2020 gop will be defending 20 seats with trump on the ballot... they gonna lose at minimum prob half those seats, and you already know GOP itching to primary trump especially after getting washed in the congressional and state wide seats last night
the problem is how easily the republicans won in those hard red senate states the dems had going into last night. long term that gives them a numerical advantage in the senate because their base is disproportionately in those small states that are over-represented in the senate.

and i dont think 2020 senate looks that good for the dems. they might pick up colorado, maine, NC, maybe iowa...but the democrats will probably lose alabama in an election year

I feel sad for you Georgia and Florida brehs.

However, here in NY, I'm happy. Democrats dominated yesterday.

Cuomo and Gillibrand easily won reelection. Antonio Delgado won and he flipped a GOP House seat.

The New York State Senate flipped to blue and now finally we can get real progressive legislative change in NY.

Also, the 3 NYC ballot proposals all passed overwhelmingly.

It was a good day in New York yesterday!

Any news on total House seats we are likely to hold after everything is counted?

It is fukking absurd that an 85 year old just won another term in the Senate. She'll be 91 at the end of her term if she lives that long! :mindblown:

She's selfish as fukk and needs to step aside for godsakes.
Yea, I respect the Feinstein legacy..,,been a senator my whole damn life :wow: but she could’ve basically appointed her replacement and people would’ve voted for that person...essentially an extension of her legacy if she’s that self absorbed. But, if she doesn’t make it, there’s an election, not tripping, more angry at our stupid Supreme Court that allows lifetime appointment and the old ass liberals who didn’t step aside during Obama’s and are now teetering on death’s door during trump’s presidency (let alone him getting a second term :why:)

Dems have to be smart to pick the right ticket to stop Trump because they got the popular vote but if Florida goes down the way it did last night they have to make inroads in NC and VA along with the midwest. Taking back PA, Wisconsin, Ohio and Michigan which is doable after last nights results.

With a good Dem candidate that would take time to tour the Midwest, they will take OH, WI, MI, PA, and even Indiana in 2020. Trump already losing massive ground in the Midwest, and he isn't gaining any more ground. If anything, he bottom'd out on finding new supporters

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
not with trump as his opponent :yeshrug: believe me, i said the same shyt. all that "uncle joe" shyt is :scusthov: but its completely negated with trump as his opponent

the dems could literally run a commercial of trump saying "grab her by the p*ssy" on a loop :dead:
That shyt don’t matter, they have already reconciled that shyt in their brain. When Trump does it, it’s because he was sent by god to slay p*ssy, when they catch bad angles on Joe without context, he is a pedo!

2020 candidate needs to be male. Also, just continue to do what the Dems did in driving turnout.

Remember that no one would be talking about racism etc if turnout was higher and voter suppression (which begins in statehouses) was more effectively countered.
