while Democrat turnout is higher in percentage,

it's not in raw numbers.
Democrats noticed after GA06 that when they don't announce the vote, only Dems will turn out because of their anger.

REPUBLICANS,

GET,

OFF,

YOUR,

LAZY,

ASSES

**VOTE**

I just woke up and looked through the rest of the thread last night, great discussion guys !

I'm not surprised by that D shift

as I mentioned before....state legislature elections can be massively gamed because people don't really hear about them

which means that the pissed off motivated side does the best

I'm gonna rewrite the OP for the general thread

Hard to understate just how disastrous a sign for 2018 the GOP's loss in the WI state Senate special election (SD-10 in Western WI) is. Harsdorf an incumbent who made this seat look stronger for GOP than it naturally is, but still, a 9pt loss among Trump's core vote? DOOM.

state legislature elections in January =/= congressional elections in November

well were does this candidate stand on local issues?

can't be as bad as Warren (fucking kill me plz)

4 elections in deeply Trump districts tonight. All saw huge swing toward Dems compared to 2016 pres results.

SC HD99: +15% net swing toward Dems
IA HD06: +18%
WI SD10: +24% or +27%
WI AD58: +25%

We have a turnout problem

yeah, so the question is...what can be done to make Republicans turn out

and what are the Democrats doing to make them turn out

I'm guessing a lot of funding

We can't do this online

We need to go knocking on doors

make phone calls

a lot of organization through websites like the Daily Kos

put up fliers, etc.

GOTV efforts

oh yeah

yes, exactly

I'm not sure what the hell the GOP is doing

they should be aware of this

they already gave up

wtf

honestly one of the best things we can do is spread this information to every right leaning person we can find

as proof that they still need to vote for these elections

oh yeah

so here's something major we're going to have to push in the general

having everyone who browses the thread on /pol/ to make a list of all the people they know in real life willing to vote for GOP candidates

@Red Storm (in NYC) visit your local RNC office and ask them how you can help
