Where they losing seats?

Colorado and Maine are a must for them. Colorado I think is almost certain, Maine is very likely.

If they want to recover further, they'll have to pick up from :North Carolina, Iowa, Arizona, and maybe some other places I can't think of right now

I think they should run some centrist, economic populist, pro gun Dem against Mitch McConell and see what happens with that.

The blue wave was a Tsunami... Media trying to downplay that shyt but everyone see it

The GOP got 20 senate seats to defend plus with Trump being on the ballot.. I’m calling it down they losing at least 12 of those seats

The issues Stiller is talking about: monopolization ofvthe economy, media, hospitals, etc has lowered the quality of living in rural America. Dems aren’t talking about it much. It’s a big problem and could help win rural votes.


Honestly, I think they missed that boat against trumpism in '16, in terms of appealing with policy.

I think they don't have much of a shot until trumpism burns out on it own at this point or find the "right" candidate that can appeal on a similar scale. Its pretty much a cult at this point.
It's funny that on the national level no one is talking about Harris County in Texas. 19 black women ran for judicial seats in the county. ALL 19 WON:russ:

Had no clue:ohhh:

You should post this in TLR:mjlit:

Iowa too. Maybe even Alaska.

Also, it's crazy how much different this map looked 10 years ago. Before the GOP successfully completed their Southern Strategy 2.0, they had a lot of senators in places seen as a lost cause for Dems today. Like Arkansas, Louisiana, the other half of WV

We gotta continue to push and show up at the polls like we just did. At the very least hopefully Democratic voters learned that we can no longer be complacent, that even if we have a candidate we don't like we have to support them or else we see what happens.

Don’t know what’s going on, but I like the energy!

Can anybody give me a quick assessment of what is going on? Did Sinema win, like confirmed? Is Nelson realistically still in it? Is there going to be a run off in Georgia? Can we get to a recount in Fla for Gillum?

Nelson is realistically in it and Rick Scott is shook, filing lawsuits and send Florida Law Enforcement to Palm Beach and Broward, both counties are still counting, palm beach Palm Beach - Election Results has not reported since the 7th. Gillum is adding up votes but a bigger margin, so gillum has a slimmer chance. Apparently there are thousands of mail ins and provisionals in both counties to be voted and perhaps thousands of military/over seas ballot that may make their way. Nelson is in for a hand recount, gillum is in for a machine recount, officially. Tomorrow at 12Noon is the deadline for all counties to report and the official recounts to begin
