that's the election between the Republican (Theodore Roosevelt) vs his Democratic opponent, Alton Parker

2018-01-24 14:49:01 UTC  

it was a landslide in terms of popular vote

2018-01-24 14:49:18 UTC  

but the south was still solidly Democratic, except for Missouri, which went over to the GOP

2018-01-24 14:49:35 UTC  

Ohio always goes red or blue

2018-01-24 14:49:41 UTC  

But I think it will go Red

2018-01-24 14:50:09 UTC  

Ohio is the opposite of Virginia in that it's a purple state trending safe red

2018-01-24 14:50:27 UTC  

I think that had to do with Ted Strickland

2018-01-24 14:50:34 UTC  

He was a really shitty governor

2018-01-24 14:50:49 UTC  

in what ways was he shitty

2018-01-24 14:51:13 UTC  

He bankrupted the state, and spent the rainy day fund until it was just 68 cents

2018-01-24 14:51:19 UTC  

wow

2018-01-24 14:51:57 UTC  

He tried running for senator in the 2016 election, but his advertisement campaign was really shitty compared to Portman’s

2018-01-24 14:52:03 UTC  

So he lost

2018-01-24 14:53:42 UTC  

58.0% to 37.2%

2018-01-24 14:53:49 UTC  

yeah, what a pathetic showing

2018-01-24 14:54:11 UTC  

the good news is that if the GOP does it right, a lot of races this November should look like that

2018-01-24 14:54:56 UTC  

The asshole thought that “since muh trump is against abortion, so is Portman”. That’s what his advertisement campaign was. Portman’s in the other hand was that since Strickland bankrupted the State, why would we make him our senator?

2018-01-24 14:55:25 UTC  

if only 51.1% of people who voted for Trump voted for Moore, he would have won

2018-01-24 14:55:55 UTC  

But the Dems scared the voters away with the pedo allegations.

2018-01-24 14:56:34 UTC  

Either ways, I don’t think Jones will make it to the next election

2018-01-24 14:56:47 UTC  

if 75.1% of people who voted for Trump voted for the GOP candidate in the Governor's race in New Jersey, the Republican would have won

2018-01-24 14:56:58 UTC  

tbh if I were Jones, I wouldn't even bother running for another term

2018-01-24 14:56:59 UTC  

But New Jersey is a blue state

2018-01-24 14:57:10 UTC  

I'd abuse my time to vote solid blue

2018-01-24 14:57:20 UTC  

New Jersey is a blue state and Alabama is a red state

2018-01-24 14:57:26 UTC  

doesn't mean that the underdog party can't win

2018-01-24 14:57:30 UTC  

Right

2018-01-24 14:57:49 UTC  

We could win New Jersey since Menendez is so controversial

2018-01-24 18:02:16 UTC  

@FLanon I remember hearing about AP Human Geography when I was a HS freshman, but never took it. That's how it is? Jeez

2018-01-24 18:03:52 UTC  

Southern NJ could carry a Republican to victory

2018-01-24 18:04:13 UTC  

Atlantic City is basically Las Vegas

2018-01-24 18:04:22 UTC  

Tossup city

2018-01-24 22:11:19 UTC  

Can I show you guys something

2018-01-24 22:11:27 UTC  

sure
