you're not seeing a shift to blue when it comes to the populace

it's such a ridiculous thing to freak out about, when the seat went further R than Clinton v Trump

you're seeing

1. Lack of Trump being on the ballot

2. Lack of motivation in general rom GOP voters

without contact to a network of boomers nationwide, we can't do too much about this

what the fuck is the point of moping about this anyways?

a 1% shift is like nothing

it's nothing much, but it's not a bad thing, and it's certainly nothing to go full apocalypse over

@FLanon maybe it's a California thing

SWALLOW THE BLACKPILL, WHITEBOI

okay, now, what was the swing in Kentucky, exactly?

today?

yes

28% swing in favor of Democrats

that's more of a worry than a swing in favor of Rs

T
U
R
N
O
U
T

that's the name of the game

the issue is that blue reddit has this network of dedicated voters in these special elections, but we don't have a mass contact with red reddit

if that can be managed, then we can actually make change with these special elections and you can soapbox however you want.

@FLanon another issue is that red reddit is persecuted by the admins

anyway, I wonder if the support for abortion after 5 weeks thing will hurt Lamb in this district

>you're against putting murderers to death therefore you're a hypocrite for not wanting to murder what you see as infants

red reddit is quarantined in t_d, I doubt we'll get good support in r/politics or something like that

anything else, like alt right subreddits and all that usually end up getting shut down which is unfortunate

Its not a leftwing circlejerk like the rest of the politics subs

I doubt there'd be that high of a concentration of dedicated R voters to be effective enough for improving turnout in a significant way.

I'm not a fan of the county-level election map that simply shows red and blue

it's more useful to look at maps that display vote density or size of lead through precinct-level

AAAAAAAAHHHH

It passed

Well, in that case it's a good idea to call your senator to make sure it doesn't get passed. Hopefully they'll be too preoccupied with other legislation to actually pass it. Still, call.
