2022 Midterm Elections: NO RED WAVE! - GOP Takes U.S. House; Dems Keep U.S. Senate

[Baka's Weird Case]

Judges and some moderate legislation (like codifying roe) can be passed by negotiating with true moderate republicans from districts like NY and Cali

can they get legislation through the house with a republican speaker though? the speaker won't advance a bill unless most of his party supports it

Republicans are going to be in a world of trouble if Dems flip some seats in the House and pick off the last 3 senate seats.

Great question, if enough republicans break for the dem legislation I assume a vote can be forced but I’m not sure

That'd be a massive L considering all the other major Dems in that state seem to have won their races.

Lombardo isn't an election denier. More moderate Republican, though still a POS cop

Sisolak was unpopular with both parties, got a lot of blame for the lockdown stuff

Not a surprise. A ton of people personally blame him for the lock downs

yeah im by no means an expert on congressional procedure, i am mainly going off of this:

Hastert Rule - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

if a speaker scheduled a vote to codify roe i think he would probably get removed by GOP reps. but maybe there is a way around it through some more obscure process?

Nice. Just learned they may be able to get rid of the filibuster as well. I'd love to see the John Lewis Act get passed
