Unless we can start carrying the entire f**king New england
AND rust belt
Like 1840 style
I've made something similar to this
hold on
Minnesota-Wisconsin-Michigan= 36 electoral votes
Texas = 38 electoral votes
By the time Texas goes Blue, those three states should be Red
@GavinTheViking Um no sweetie
By current trends
Did you see how Wisconsin swung from 2016 to 2018 statewide?
not to mention all the special legislative elections...
Like their state legislature?
yeah
I believe they've flipped 2 seats in the state senate already
Special elections are oddities, though. Whichever party pours as much resources into that one election will win, and since its the only election at that time then there's extra effort in flipping the seat.
for oddities,
the trend has been pretty darn consistent
Yeah, Trump did fire up the Progressive base these past two years.
But they can't commit the effort we've been seeing in special elections to hundreds of elections at once, equally.
So we flip the entire rust belt
States that have been solid democrat
For basically
100 years
And we need to take them every election now?
We didn't even take MN in 2016?
Trumps approval ratings among whties from WI, PA, and MN are in the crapper
@zakattack04 Do you realize how difficult it was to achieve this?
Decades of building up to it,
and now it will never happen again...
That's my point!
The parties are ever-changing, and Republicans could capture the working class-White vote from Democrats in key states, since Democrats are committed to minority issues more than economic issues.
These states have been solid democrat since 1932!
And all of the sudden
@GavinTheViking If that's going to happen it will be in Minnesota's 8th and 1st congressional districts
We just need to carry them every election to win
There aren't many White Working Class districts held by Democrats anymore
In the Rust Belt there are
I guess there is also WI-03 and IA-02
but the incumbents are popular
