2018-01-15 02:56:53 UTC

what is the sauce btw

2018-01-15 02:58:02 UTC

i collaborated the data myself

2018-01-15 02:58:11 UTC

ah ok

2018-01-15 02:59:02 UTC

it's probably better than most polls

2018-01-15 02:59:28 UTC

the betting percentages had to come from somewhere though, right?

2018-01-15 03:06:29 UTC

+3.6% in the last week

2018-01-15 03:06:32 UTC

so that's good

2018-01-15 03:11:15 UTC

good night guys

2018-01-15 04:12:17 UTC

should we get Bradly Manning the nomination just to fuck up the Dems chances in that election?

2018-01-15 14:32:41 UTC

yeah

2018-01-15 14:33:23 UTC

probably would be the best chance of getting that seat in a state that is extremely blue

2018-01-15 15:52:11 UTC

lol at this post

2018-01-15 22:08:21 UTC

new thread goys

2018-01-15 22:08:24 UTC

keep this bumped

2018-01-15 22:15:37 UTC

kk

2018-01-15 22:26:21 UTC

half tempted to write a quick site for this stuff, like that guy did with the tax calculator

2018-01-15 23:27:50 UTC

>tfw I don't think that Chelsea Manning isn't necessarily a bad choice for the US Senate

2018-01-15 23:28:19 UTC

I think* whelp

2018-01-15 23:28:57 UTC

I saw an article stating that some of the more centrist dem are bashing it/her

2018-01-15 23:29:22 UTC

She will prob lose real hard is she runs

2018-01-15 23:29:30 UTC

Yeah. Most of the Democratic establishment is shilling against her hard.

2018-01-15 23:30:11 UTC

Even if she wins or loses, as long as she exposes the corrupt elite agenda of the surveillance state, the war crimes committed by the US, etc. I'd say its a win

2018-01-15 23:32:43 UTC

But realistically speaking, she's going to probably lose to Cardin anyways

2018-01-15 23:34:27 UTC

It's hard to say, especially with social justice and girl power on every leftie's tongue. Though, its hard to say what the population of Leftist millenial sjw types is in Maryland.

2018-01-16 00:27:51 UTC

So I've researched and found some projections for the house that are fairly whitepilling

2018-01-16 00:28:04 UTC

Nice

2018-01-16 00:28:10 UTC

thanks for the good work

2018-01-16 00:28:13 UTC

they're from fairvote, a pretty accurate firm from what I've found

2018-01-16 00:30:08 UTC

basically, the high confidence projections they have (which from past analyses they've accurately predicted 99.7% of, so it's extremely likely they'll get all of them right bar one or two at most) has 205 R seats and 163 D seats

2018-01-16 00:31:05 UTC

this gives a field of about 63 seats in competition

2018-01-16 00:32:20 UTC

218 seats are needed to have a majority, meaning Rs would need to grab at least 13 seats out of the 63 in play in order to keep the house

2018-01-16 00:32:51 UTC

obviously we want much more than this for legislative purposes, but this effectively prevents any impeachment attempts

2018-01-16 00:34:37 UTC

Now, if there's a 2006-esque "blue wave" with a similar makeup to that year, w/ 54% dems and 46% Rs, that still gives Rs a majority of 226 seats, at least according to FairVote

2018-01-16 00:35:55 UTC

this is about 52% of the House of Representatives which would be Republican, or to give a frame of reference, about the same margin that we had in the senate before Moore's loss

2018-01-16 00:37:46 UTC

Not good in my opinion, but not apocalyptic. I think the average House Republican is much more on Trump's side than the average House Democrat (anecdotal, but still my opinion), so Trump would still be able to get some good bills in I assume.

2018-01-16 00:37:49 UTC

thanks, btw can you bump the thread

2018-01-16 00:38:01 UTC

yeah, damn

2018-01-16 00:38:37 UTC

btw don't let these results get you delusional or anything

2018-01-16 00:39:38 UTC

for all I know, the dems could get a ton more seats than what's considered the "blue wave" in that scenario.

2018-01-16 00:44:37 UTC

our goals this year are to:
a) maintain the margins in the House, as they're decent at getting legislation passed even with Cuck Ryan.
b) increase the margins in the Senate, as they're the ones effectively blocking legislation from getting passed with a couple Senators
c) maybe get Ryan unseated, as he is a poison pill for Trump's agenda.
The cucks in the senate are already retiring, so we'd also need to make sure to prevent Romney from getting office in Utah.

2018-01-16 00:47:54 UTC

gotta go, anyways.

2018-01-16 01:19:18 UTC

have a good night anon, thanks for your work

2018-01-16 05:43:12 UTC

Wisconsin State Senate Special Elections TOMORROW

2018-01-16 15:46:53 UTC

Wisconsin State Senate Special Elections TODAY

2018-01-17 00:13:03 UTC

how did they turn out

2018-01-17 00:13:21 UTC

the issue with state legislature elections is that people never really hear about them

2018-01-17 00:13:28 UTC

which means that they can be gamed quite a bit

2018-01-17 00:13:35 UTC

with money and get out the vote efforts

2018-01-17 00:13:46 UTC

they could end up being a very good metric for the federal elections

2018-01-17 00:14:04 UTC

are there any results yet?

2018-01-17 00:14:47 UTC

looks like no results yet

2018-01-17 00:15:08 UTC

alright, well let's keep the fingers crossed then

2018-01-17 00:15:22 UTC

just came back from a solid day picking up chicks

2018-01-17 00:15:27 UTC

let me write up a new general right now

2018-01-17 00:20:29 UTC

bump this thread every so often so it doesn't get slid beyond pg 10

2018-01-17 01:56:44 UTC

btw @Nuke @TrippyTurtle can one of you bump the thread

2018-01-17 02:03:10 UTC

thanks

2018-01-17 02:11:37 UTC

2018-01-17 03:01:08 UTC

some news concerning the wisconsin state special election

2018-01-17 03:01:31 UTC

LINK

2018-01-17 03:02:45 UTC

Jarchow is the R, so this should be good news to come

2018-01-17 03:04:10 UTC

It's not really important in the sense of needing the seat itself, but it still gives us a bit of an idea as to attitudes

2018-01-17 03:23:52 UTC

can I get someone else to bump the thread other than me

2018-01-17 04:19:08 UTC

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

2018-01-17 04:50:35 UTC

well, we're going to work hard then, aren't we

2018-01-17 04:51:03 UTC

I don't think you realize how bad this is

2018-01-17 04:51:21 UTC

Trump won this district by a margin of **57** points

2018-01-17 04:51:33 UTC

well then

2018-01-17 04:51:35 UTC

the fact Democrats won here is phenomenal

2018-01-17 04:51:45 UTC

a *really* bad sign for November

2018-01-17 04:51:50 UTC

what were the ballotpedia results

2018-01-17 04:53:32 UTC

definitely not a good sign of things to come as they are, but the thing is the political environment 10 months from now can be radically different]

2018-01-17 04:53:58 UTC

we 100% should be upping our game

2018-01-17 04:54:00 UTC

there were 5 special elections today,

2018-01-17 04:54:24 UTC

Democrats flipped two of these five state legislators

2018-01-17 04:54:36 UTC

**PROBLEMATIC**

2018-01-17 04:54:51 UTC

not even blackpilling or shilling,

2018-01-17 04:54:52 UTC

yeah, we have our work cut out for us

2018-01-17 04:55:03 UTC

I get it, it's dire

2018-01-17 04:55:29 UTC

'Schachtnerโ€™s victory comes in a district that Harsdorf won by by 26 percentage points in 2016. Trump carried the 10th District by 17 percentage points in 2016.'

2018-01-17 04:56:28 UTC

we definitely should be having more boots on the ground grassroots campaigns

2018-01-17 04:56:52 UTC

there is no chance of making it by going on high and dry

2018-01-17 05:00:30 UTC

there has to be some political event from now and then which changes the circumstances, really.

2018-01-17 05:00:50 UTC

I refuse to give up hope, sorry.

2018-01-17 05:02:24 UTC

the GOP holds a majority of 18 - 15 in the Wisconsin State Senate; down from 20 - 13.

2018-01-17 05:02:57 UTC

we're doing something wrong and need to re-evaluate
