that's the best that democracy had to offer in that district
I sadly can't stay for long.
@Sam Southern - TN Hiral has some charisma
and I guess Debbie has that "conservative mom" appeal
anyone who wants a mom running their country is fucking insane.
yeah, but much of the country has poor judgment when it comes to electing politicians
much of the world, rather
hence why restricting the vote is so important.
extend the length of terms, decrease the total number of terms allowed to 2 for all positions. force these idiots to focus on the long term rather than getting elected in two years. restrict the vote to tax-paying, zero-welfare-receiving, head of household only.
I would prefer to make it only those who own land as well.
If you don't have a physical stake in the soil that makes up the nation, you are not invested in it.
Better than land would be a parenthood requirement for voting
Then the only ones that can vote are those with a stake in the future of the nation
IMO you gotta set standards for who becomes a parent in the first place
Remember, folks
we all know that there are certain...segments of the population who shouldn't be having children in the first place
The PA-18 electorate was D+4 by party registration by default, 48 to 44, appx. the same as RVs.
Turnout was 52.3% among reg. Dems, 51.7% among Reps, 32% w/other.
18-29 year olds represented just 6% of the electorate
I mean yeah of course
Maybe in return for certain welfare programs you get sterilized or something
The AZ-08 district has a lot of registered Rs and doesn't have the same D ancestry PA-18 did
Win/loss is one of many qs -- more important to compare to a baseline, see how Rs do w/high turnout, etc
Generally the type of people who do have children take more precautions than single people especially when voting
UT-03 -> solid Trump overperformance (!) + R registration advantage
GA-06 -> pretty close to Trump performance in Gingrich's old seat
KS-04 -> good R registration + big Trump underperformance
If you vote for someone and you are childless, you vote for your own future, if you vote and have children, you're trying to look out for their future
Yeah, lot of factors to go on
The game is tough
I'm now convinced a Trump endorsement is a curse
a kiss of death
Trump endorsed a bunch of people who won
hell, when he endorsed Strange against Moore, Strange actually got a boost
not enough, but it was a boost
same with Saccone
of course, that's assuming you believe >polls
Handel won, Gianforte won, the Lieutenant Governor Trumpian candidate did better than Gillespie
Button Mash's real name ^
Jill Vogel was way more liberal than Gillespie
Also the AG candidate was way more conservative than the both of them and still lost by 6 points
Virginia is a blue state
The fact that people were surprised and the fact that Liberals were playing the “Muh Blue Wave” Card shows the retardation
This is the State Terry McAullife was Governor of
