A lot of old people there

@Timcast Oh yeah Timcast, they are discounting Democrats leaving their party and heading independent.

Shouldnt the high turn out sooth democrat fears, not kick them into overdrive?

You can find anyone articles of people saying anything you want if you look hard enough.

With #walkaway.

I've found articles indicating Republicans are pulling out of some races.

Most of them switching over to Republican

I don't trust chatter.

#OrangeManBad #BlueWave #LetWomenDecide #NoMenMidterm

My gut says Repub just because of the independent vote

You can, but you have to be careful what you read and how.

Indeed, information overload is a major problem in modern society

Chatter is often going to be affected by whom you talk to.

More than solid facts on the ground.

60/40 democrats take the house, but by no more than 5 seats.

It both helps and hurts that anyone can publish anything

"What's remarkable is that although Democrats have been losing over 80% of "toss-up" races over the past 2 cycles, this time it appears pundits are predicting Dems just take all the toss-ups." LOL

House is a toss-up would be extremely surprising to see Dems take majority in senate

@Timcast How many Republicans voters have even been disenfranchise? Most republicans stay republican, don't switch parties like young democrat voters. Also the Generation is just getting into voter age, the ones that are Republican.

This is the first election that gen Z gets to vote in right?

the main reason SIlver leans for D's is that R's are defending more

so there is more to lose for republicans than dems

Yes Black.

but thats faultly logic

@ExceptionalFeather not a toss up at all, you're buying into skewed polls

another factor we have to think about is the "by any means necessary" factor. we already have charges of hacking being laid against the georgia democrat party.

some 1st some second Blackhawk

you could argue people prefer incumbents

I don;t look at polls :/

and Ds face an uphill battle

@Timcast Think about Generation Z who is overwhelmingly Republican are getting within voter age.

This is their first election.

Dems could literally lose because they can't meme. Memes are more powerful to youth than MSM

Not overwhelmingly, they are close to equal parts Liberal and Conservative, just moreso than previous generations

Nate takes into account incumbent advantage. He tends to emphasize it heavily in his analysis.

the Midterm Meme War? 😉

Incumbent advantage is important but it can be a double edged sword

MEEEEEEEEEMEE WAAAAAARRRR

thanks to Trumps economy, rep incumbents have a major advantage i think

https://nypost.com/2017/07/01/why-the-next-generation-after-millennials-will-vote-republican/

all we know fore sure is that the democratic party has completely lost the populist movement for generations to come

who's a veteran of a thousand psychic wars?

me

Not quite wood

They're courting minorities like never before

Being their first election... this will be interesting.

Memes. Pfft. As if they actually matter. Memes mean nothing!

But while we are discussing elections, I need to talk to all my fellow democratic men about something important.

Guys, you need to not vote.
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Dq4BYoCWoAAwkU7.jpg

I still find that hilarious.

Too bad Twitter didn't. It was an obvious joke.

Seriously, who actually think Memes do anything?
So guys... Stop voting if you're a democrat. Seriously. Stop.

the old-guard Reps lost the youth vote with bush in 2000 and 2004

It takes only 1 person to bring faith into another party as Trump has shown

That is just nuts.

They actually be loosing their vote.

Keep spreading it far and wide though

Votes^

doesn't Gen Z start at 1995? If so, this is their second election

Gen Z is 1995 - 2005

Yea, Z starts in 95 and ends in 2005

so some have second, some have first

Born between those.

I'm a millenial 😭

( @Dusty Morgan pro-tip, that's the point. This was a meme created by /pol/ to make fun of democrats and their NPC/SJW agenda.)

Hell yea wol

so uh

GIVE ME MONEY you filthy boomers

waaah waaah

What's after gen z?<:TimThink:482277772497125378>

Generation depends

im emo about stuff REEEEE

I just had to make sure. I consider myself Gen Z but *college* says it starts in 2000 not 1995

Wol we dont have to listen to "the man" lets go eat avocado toast

Zoomer Gang

You can be born later than a gen-Z and be millennial it is more aboout how you grew up

your avocado made me racist

Hey guys... keep eyes on Leftist media.

Let's record some more melt downs.

No

some of the oldest Gen-Z are 1995

College says a lot of things

95 year old zoomers? <:TimThink:482277772497125378>

Some I agree with and some I dont

i'll have the internet give me a Cenk Uygur 2018 meltdown vid

Just wait for the TyT supercut

Generation Z is the wildcard in this election.

It makes it really exciting

Not Millennials or Boomers... it is generation Z we got to keep a eye on.

Generation Z, the "Mass Shooting Generation"

I consider myself more Gen-Z but with some millennial influence

eeew

a youngling

Almost everyone in Timcast's comments is saying Republicans.

XD

My siblings are mostly Gen-Z though

its no longer hip and cool to be rep, everyone is rep

It would be more republican leaning though, remember that the democrats are often in their own echo chambers and rarely leave them

ima switch over and be a democrat again

I was born like at the start of the Millennials start.

My younger sister actually is more relatable to millennials than I am I think. But my younger bro is for sure Gen-Z

y'all racist hicks!

😛

my siblings are definitely gen z and dead set on Republican

My younger bro is definitely hardcore repub

I think the other thing starting to benefit republicans is the recent turning in on themselves of the NPCs. They keep being told who to hate and they've started attacking themselves. That's disheartening them and breaking their conviction. So even those that still support the cause in spirit are quickly losing their will to support the cause in action, which may diminish their vote.

Not sure if he registered though

@Dr.Wol If we find you heart do you tt uuurrrkkk

Democrats only have Millennials if you think about it. Older generation votes Republican, Millennials vote Democrat, and Generation Z will vote Republican.

Racists.

Shitpost prize to the doctor for that comment

nah dusty

That doesn't include the fact that Millennials as they age, start to lean Republican.

the SJW's of the last 40 years, the colorlings

and the wamen'

Unless they are Hardcore SJWs

all vote dem

Dems rely on identity politics and voting blocks

@Dusty Morgan Do they? the Poli sci journals indicate political positions tend to be very fixed. And they have data behind that.

#walkaway though the ones that realized that they weren't getting anything they were promised from Dems

as well as the Bernie people

So we are going to rely on these polls?

the socialists

This is how bacon is supposed to be

After they been proven wrong numorous times this past 3 years?

the fries they blend so perfectly

Don't underestimate your foe Dusty

Not estimating...

Wait what's going on?

a trapped animal is most dangerous

If we believe the polls, the polls can influence us to vote or not.

the polls are wrong

use uncommon sense 😄

are we going into food porn?

If you don't believe the polls, you will vote regardless what they say, meaning higher chance you will turn out.

i'd say common sense, but well, "common sense" equals "REEEEE" now

Its likely that many democrats do feel trapped

Majority of United States lost any trust in the polls.

Dems didn't

Only people who use Polls are the Media and Corporations.

@Dusty Morgan It really shouldn't. You should vote regardless of the polls. Polls are just for fun. Facts don't care about popular opinion.

They probably think that everything they've been working for is being turned back

Democrats too.

Democrats believe in the polls,

Trust me, its gonna be like 2016

and when they lose again

they'll have the same reaction "I'm not wrong, REALITY IS WRONG"

and they'll riot again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ZAiP9b6_5g

Russian bots coming out in droves to vote

It is videos like this from Walkaway that give me very real sense of change.

Big change.

unless you saw a few million videos, you can't trust the numbers of Walkaway people

This is just tiny minority, how many do it without declaring #walkaway?

How many are secretly voting Red?

Most fear backlash from their democrat friends.

That doesn't really matter,

IF they all vote red in the same state, you can still end up losing another

So they won't announce it.

i agree

There is a secret voter base for Republicans.

peoople who say "I'm not sure" vote rep 😉

If 40k switch though, that is a shift of 80k

Due to Democrats backlash against Republicans.

provided they all vote yes

This is what going to be wild about this election.

I do hope for all our sakes Reps win

IF america is strong, EU will bend the knee and maybe stop this INsanity 😦

Some will switch from Repub though to vote against Trump

I don't wanna die by migrant-itis 😭

Secret Republican voter base, Generation Z coming into Voting Age, Republicans are Energized, Minorities leaving Democrat party in droves, and #walkway Bringing Democrats to Republicans.

This is what I been seeing.

keep in mind

a lot of those also Overlap

These are the people that isn't talked about.

These are the voter base that will come quickly and hard.

Dems got money though

Minorities leavign democrats ARE in the same branch as Walkaway

Dems don't got money, wasn't the DNC broke in 2016?

Yes they were, they are getting donations from wealthy leftists.

they only carried along cuz of funding from Hillary

It was the deal

George Soros is one of those wealthy elites.

Hillary would be the nominee, and she'd fund the DNC

Soros is a non-issue

a boogieman

@Timcast There is many voting blocks that are not counted. Generation Z coming into voting age, Secret Republican Voting Base (Democrat Backlash from Friends,) Minorities and longtime democrats walking away from Democrat party, and Republicans Energized like never seen before on top of that. I take all these into account. I think Republicans are going to sweep the house and senate.

w00t! The joy of living in a "safe" voting district: I actually got to speak to the guy probably going to lose for a good deal of time today.

Are you taking into account overlap in those blocks dusty?

Republicans vote later in the day, they tend to vote late.

Yeah.... they overlap.

But they will wait till the last moment too.

i thought Democrats vote later in the day

Not really.... Republicans do. Democrats tend to vote early.

oh

Because the youth vote early.

i got those mixed up then

Old people work

I thought it was Reps voting early, and dems voting late

Only reason we have Republicans voting early, is because of the energized base and the fact we are gaining new youth voters in Republican side.

as well as patriots

Those who walkaway and those who are secret republican voters will vote late.

Plus the older generation will vote late too.

They tend to wait for election day.

https://www.recode.net/2018/8/20/17693048/silicon-valley-tech-donors-midterms-2018-democrats-donald-trump-list

Of course the wealthy elites will be backing Democrats.

Doesn't surprise me.

I really wonder when that flip was made... weren't the republicans supposed to be the party of the rich elites?

when the age of social media started

^

When both parties started bidding for the money.

Reps are the party of produce elites
Dems are the party of multimedia elites

basically, Oil vs Internet 😄

The same reason why Colorado flipped dems, rich locals meddling in politics

Rich elites back both sides

Rich back whichever side gives them the most benefits

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b89d1oip7WM

Lets hope 2018 midterms brings us another one of these 😄

Who backs them shoudlnt be an issue when you vote for them

In politics one doesnt always choose their allies

That map was just beautiful in some sense.

My two neighbors... ugh.

New Mexico and Arizona.

What were you thinking!?

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/wall-street-political-campaign-contibutions-flowing-mostly-to-democratic-candidates-for-congress/

Yes, you read that. The Securities Industry is going Democrat. Take it for what you will.

😄

*Rolls eyes.*

Trump is endangering Wall-street with his pro-free market approach 😄

The article says Wall Street is really looking to fund moderate Democrats.

But the nutty progressives probably aren't fond of their new allies.

Or they're blind to the whole thing.

I wonder if I can register as a centrist

when I got to vote

I been seeing this ad that is wanting me to vote Democrat for cheaper glasses. :\

Uh.... really?

REALLY?

That is the most pathetic ad I ever seen.

"If you want to read this message, vote Democrat"

We must be voted in for you to know our policy!

Securities industry as in military industrial complex or dif?

*Sighs.*

We are getting to Polesi territory.

@ExceptionalFeather Securities as in the people who were trading derivatives back in '07. The guys who work Wall Street not by trading stock but by trading "financial products"

Though the military Industrial complex favored Hillary in 2016 and I haven't seen anything telling me it changed (or stayed the same for that matter)
