What figure is that relevant to?

2018-02-21 00:40:12 UTC  

Elections nationwide?

2018-02-21 00:40:15 UTC  

or Kentucky

2018-02-21 00:40:16 UTC  
2018-02-21 00:41:33 UTC  

lol stop acting like a Californian @🎃Boo-ton🎃

2018-02-21 00:41:55 UTC  

it looks like Dan Johnson won in 2016 because of the boost he got from people turning out for Trump and voting Republican down ballot

2018-02-21 00:42:14 UTC  

otherwise, it's a Democrat seat that the GOP candidate didn't bother putting much effort in

2018-02-21 00:43:01 UTC  

also, Dan Johnson won by less than 200 votes in 2016

2018-02-21 00:43:30 UTC  

it does go to show however, that if turnout in these special elections was like turnout for Trump, we would have BTFO in every race

2018-02-21 00:43:39 UTC  

we would have won in Alabama by massive margins

2018-02-21 00:43:41 UTC  

and Virginia

2018-02-21 00:43:47 UTC  

maybe even New Jersey

2018-02-21 00:43:52 UTC  

but hey, Trump is Trump

2018-02-21 00:46:32 UTC  

That makes me feel better at least

2018-02-21 00:51:19 UTC  

ITS STILL A SHIFT

2018-02-21 00:51:25 UTC  

IT MATCHES THE QUINPLLIAC POLL

2018-02-21 00:51:32 UTC  

OR WHATEVER ITS CALLED

2018-02-21 00:53:52 UTC  

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 it'll shift in the other direction in the weeks and months to come

2018-02-21 00:55:21 UTC  

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 Fam you need to learn to be optimistic

2018-02-21 00:55:35 UTC  

Even in rwu you had a pessimism problem

2018-02-21 00:55:40 UTC  

Keep your hope up

2018-02-21 00:58:29 UTC  

what's RWU

2018-02-21 00:59:53 UTC  

Right wing united

2018-02-21 01:04:21 UTC  

so these were the candidates in the race today

2018-02-21 01:04:36 UTC  

it looks like the Democrat, Linda Belcher, already won multiple times in the district

2018-02-21 01:04:47 UTC  

she just lost in 2016 because of the boost Dan Johnson got from Trump

2018-02-21 01:04:57 UTC  

so when Dan Johnson an hero'd

2018-02-21 01:05:06 UTC  

the GOP didn't really care, because they already have a huge majority in Kentucky

2018-02-21 01:05:20 UTC  

so they just nominated his widow (I guess there was no one else who actually cared)

2018-02-21 01:05:38 UTC  

and the seat, which has gone to the Democrats frequently, goes for the Democrat former incumbent with name recognition

2018-02-21 01:05:44 UTC  

not surprising in the least

2018-02-21 01:06:24 UTC  

wtf

2018-02-21 01:06:31 UTC  

who votes like that

2018-02-21 01:06:51 UTC  

votes like what ?

2018-02-21 01:17:57 UTC  

voting in and voting out the same candidate over and over

2018-02-21 01:20:26 UTC  

Trump would be a fool to actually think this

2018-02-21 01:24:05 UTC  

that is true though

2018-02-21 01:24:29 UTC  

Tax cut helped that too

2018-02-21 01:24:31 UTC  

um, no sweetie!
