Oh wait maybe you shouldn't say it Button
a PROGRESSIVE won the Supreme Court seat with a 11 point margin in the state of Wisconsin
LOL
A 15 point shift from 2015's SC election in WI
From Wisconsin. Hard to predict our politics. Notorious for going one way for state politics, but hard the other way for national positions.

Rohrabacher (R-inc) 31%
Baugh (R) 15%
Keirstead (D) 14%

It's ok for you to say this stuff because you're Button
The state of WI is not a liberal state
it's +0 PVI state
If I said it, FLanon would throw a fit and say I'm demoralizing.
it does have a lot of white voters
winning a state like this as a PROGRESSIVE with 11 whopping points?!
Dear God
To make matters worse, zak,
The SC conservative majority in Wisconsin has narrowed to 1 seat
That is a good poll damn
vote Baugh
@๐Boo-ton๐ Futhermore
๐ | **zakattack04 leveled up!**
Trump at a -14 with whites there.
right?
Or was it -11
-11
Rust Belt Whites gambled their vote with Trump,
and now they're regretting it
If you think i'm just shilling, well,
explain the horrible election results we've been seeing
Because they're pretty grim indicators
No I agree with you.
But it makes no sense because those states weren't effected by immigration nor was it their top issue.
Trump is handling our terrible trade policy and even implemented tariffs
and did tax reform
That was all for the rust belt
Um no sweetie
always hate it when you say that...
Small towns in the Midwest have diversified more quickly than almost any part of the U.S. since the start of an immigration wave at the beginning of this century. The resulting cultural changes appear to be moving the political needle.
A Wall Street Journal analysis of census data shows that counties in a distinct cluster of Midwestern statesโIowa, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois and Minnesotaโsaw among the fastest influxes of nonwhite residents of anywhere in the U.S. between 2000 and 2015. Hundreds of cities long dominated by white residents got a burst of Latino newcomers who migrated from Central America or uprooted from California and Texas.
Well yeah, but they haven't taken their jobs.
Nor do they care for them yet.
Remember it was the same with CA button.
we didn't care about the immigrants initially
Everyone who did care left or is leaving
yep
It'll be just like America too.
New setting
same plot
This is the HD special election in PA tomorrow
Trump won by almost 15 points, and Lamb won it by more than 5
We'll probably lose it tomorrow
Shapiro linked to a poll of the senate that was much more favorable for republicans than RCP
old poll
that was fairly recent
>literally calling it old because it's favorable to us
He mentioned it on his May 5th show
>Wisconsin
>Down 5
I found many things favorable.
This chart isn't one of them.
um
no
I'm calling it old because it's old
Hi calling it old because it's old, I'm Dad!
Can someone hold this bot's head under the water until the bubbles stop?
I 2nd that motion
anyone here remember this tweet ?
>listing Jewish women twice
also, who here has read this article
"I know many liberals, and two of them really are my best friends. Liberals make good movies and television shows. Their idealism has been an inspiration for me and many others. Many liberals are very smart. But they are not as smart, or as persuasive, as they think.
And a backlash against liberals โ a backlash that most liberals donโt seem to realize theyโre causing โ is going to get President Trump re-elected.
People often vote against things instead of voting for them: against ideas, candidates and parties. Democrats, like Republicans, appreciate this whenever they portray their opponents as negatively as possible. But members of political tribes seem to have trouble recognizing that they, too, can push people away and energize them to vote for the other side. Nowhere is this more on display today than in liberal control of the commanding heights of American culture."
Why point out what they're doing wrong?
LOL this^
Well Ima get a good nights sleep tonight, because I know I won't be able to tomorrow when he get roll stomped in PA a much needed state :D

Gotta hold PA gentlemen
2014 PA Dem Primary
@๐Boo-ton๐ I hope you know that turnout changes over time
Yes
And Democratic Turnout has surpassed Republican Turnout so far
In Alabama, 97% of Clinton voters showed up to vote compared to 48% of Trump voters
Okay ๐
5 Ratings changes from Inside Elections, all toward Democrats:
MI11: Tilt R โก๏ธ Tossup
NJ02: Tossup โก๏ธ Tilt D
NJ11: Tossup โก๏ธ Tilt D
NC09: Likely R โก๏ธ Tilt R
OH12: special Likely R โก๏ธ Tilt R
That's bullcrap.
The polling, approval rating, news, and primary results show Republicans gaining, yet they push some districts to the left.
That's why we trust the Red Storm Crystal Ball instead...
>trusting a new, partisan forecast created by you
yea, no
Better than the rest.
And I would it's only slightly partisan.
Take my map and give me a bad projection there.
It's actually perfect.
My projection so far,
GOP lose these seats for sure: 7 (AZ-02, CA-49, FL-27, NJ-02, PA-05, PA-06, PA-07)
I put all of those in the Democratic column.
Barring a great jungle primary result in CA-49, we'll lose all of them.
@Pielover19 Special election in your state BTW
Really?
yes
For what position?
And is it today?
oops nvm, that's for the 21st
There are elections today.
Special election to fill the seat of the Democratic senate minority leader, and another special election to fill the seat of a Republican convicted of mail fraud.
The senate one is in a majority black district, so we don't really have a chance to pick it up. The house seat is pretty close to me, but I'm not in the district. It's right near Huntsville.
Could be a Dem pickup.
It's going blue
Maybe.
We have to watch this election tonight, though.
@๐Boo-ton๐ you're right
Pielover is going to get BTFO'd by the true pollsters
@zakattack04 Trust the experts
This would be a dream... I only wish
it'd be pretty nice
but I doubt it'll pass
everyone needs a slice of the cake with the budgets
I'd rather just pass it
Cut everyone
Everything*
that's the thing
>Cut everything
>No wall funding
everyone has to please their donors and fund their shit
Democrats will never yeild though
it's not a budget button ffs
Yep
>No funding for more border and ICE agents
this is a separate bill
what is this an amendment
I think it's an ordinary bill
They call them revisitory Bills or something
When you pass a bill you can go back and edit it
Change spending or cut it but not add to us
Why would we lose NJ 02?
@Deleted User you're gunna lose it
The democrat is GETTIN out their whips bud
Can you actually tell me why
Or no
The Republicans are out of line and they're going to whip us back in
Ask button I'm at school
That is an amazing reason
!
Trump is hoping to win CO and MN in 2020
if he builds it and gets a mandate in 2018
I think it's way too early to make that call
Only one problem, the incumbent usually underperforms in their second bid for office
Nah
There's been a trend of people winning reelection in the past few cycles
It's there a 1.1 point swing in favor for Democrats nationwide, Trump loses the election
got to think of that incumbency advantage though
I'd say it's too early to call at this point
The guy in power right now is pretty popular
I don't see a massive swing against him
Remember, Obama lost millions of voters from 2008 to 2012
yes
and won
and he was moderately popular
Yeah cause he was a terrible president too
And still won
but it was closer than it was last time
okay
he lost NC and IN
and almost lost other states
but on the same token, what about george bush
And McCain was awful
9/11
Lol
I am talking about NJ 02
Lol
Well to close this discussion
No way MN is going red
CO isn't either
There are a couple of factors you should keep in mind for re-election in 2020: Incumbency, popularity and who's running against him
anyways, wouldn't ever say that a district is ever certain to go one way or another
No way Minnesota is going red?
How
Twin cities
Somalis
if Trump manages to pull himself up and get a mandate in congress, 2020 will be a landslide
He still only lost that by 1.5%
if he doesn't, then it gets pretty competitive
So many vulnerable states
but anyways, better margins would be immense for his campaign promises
I think we can win Minnesota
I am not sure about Colorado though
He also only won MI by .1%
PA by <1% and same with FL
And WI too
He's not taking MN
All the trends are against him and the democrats are going to run a good candidate
If he manages to get better congressional margins, then he'll take it easily
Nope
It'll be a very productive Congress
Won't matter, I know for sure.
And a whole lot of campaign promises would get through
Solid 96%
"won't matter"
yep
what do you mean exactly
I mean that it won't matter, the biggest probability is MN and CO are staying blue
PA and WI are going blue also in 2020
The question is
Who will run against Trump
Bernie
If Trump gets congress much more on his side, then the entire base would come back to vote for him in 2020
I think that's the biggest factor for 2020
And he could potentially swing people to vote for him
Honesty the democrats can run anyone and do well
Clinton was so bad
No
So unpopular
That is not true
Biden would do better
There's a ton of people they'd basically be shooting themselves in the foot by running
If they really want to win
He would be their best option in winning
They rub Michelle Obama
?
Run*
But he'd become an octogenarian in office
Michelle was always a meme to me
Michelle will get all the obama voters
Nah
not all of them
What the blacks
Yeah
And any criticism you give to her will be called racist or mysoginust
Can't beat her
We could see 3 Obama officials run against each other
right because that worked so well with Hillary
Yeah
I don't know, I just don't picture her doing well on a debate stage
