also almost all of these polls are taken from people in urban areas
same applies to ones on the internet
and almost every urban area is left as heck
It's about momentum, it's about energy. Honestly, @🎃Boo-ton🎃 I know you're deep in the political statician stuff with these districts, but you can't ever let this shit demotivate you. They win when that happens. Don't make it about "not sure we'll hold on to it", we can hold on to anything with the right effort and momentum.
ur right, nothing _really_ matters until the primaries
For now, we honestly just need to work on the Discord. We can probably get those special elections won on our own if we had a megaphone like r/T_D on our side. We need to focus on housekeeping, brainstorming, what ops to do, websites, so that when the primaries come and go, we can more effectively focus on elections.
"We can't bog ourselves in the conventional polling and the odds in each state and what's considered deep blue and red, we need a fight wherever we can put it. This hasn't been a conventional time whatsoever, wherever the tide turns, whatever it may yield, we've got to give this all we got. We need to push as hard as possible, I think the reddit stuff is our best way for this discord to drive turnout. We need to, no matter whatever the odds, push to the limit. This is what counts. The Senate has a much bigger opportunity of success than what we're making it out to be, and the House is a tough fight, but it's one which if we can salvage what we have and get seats in unexpected areas, we can make it even better than now if we do it right. Blackpills are not an option. We shall fight on the coasts, we shall fight on the plains, we shall fight in red districts and blue districts, whatever we need to. Whatever happens, if we've done all that we can, at least we can't blame ourselves."
oh my fucking god, this is right on the money. You're the MVP of the Month
Yeah, we shouldn't get bogged down in the numbers and data like the out of touch leftist academics who thought Hillary would definitely win
discussing probabilities in February for something that will happen in November is pretty fruitless
ummmmm, no sweetie!

here's the truth,
that's a repost from a tweet btw
high or low approval doesn't matter if you don't leave your home to vote
Obama was polling in the 50s when he lost **63** seats in the house in 2010
yeah, that's what I'm saying, we need to get Rs on their feet and registered, momentum and energy, that's all it is.
Democrat voters are different than Republican voters though
we need candidates who aren't Saccone,
now, these special elections for state legislatures may tell you otherwise
people who go out and reach out to the people
but then again, they're pretty inconsequential right now given how large the GOP majorities are in these state legislatures
except in the case of Washington and almost Virginia
btw it's retarded that people pointing out how the recent Kentucky special election race had such a massive flip
because in 2016, the actual state legislature race was almost 50-50
one day maybe we can be those guys who reach out to the people
it went something like 75-25 Trump, but the incumbent seemed to be pretty connected to her district to manage to make it 50-50 with people voting downballot
it's you're going to argue that the state legislative flips mean nothing, then you would have to also say that it meant nothing when Obama lost 1000s of seats as well
it meant something because it was 1000s of seats over the course of a long period of time
whereas the GOP has been losing these special elections in legislatures where they already have such a large majority, it isn't worth caring about until the big day in November
we'll need to light a match under the R voters
ideal candidates:
1.) grassroots
2.) ideological purists
3.) no personality cultists (reagan, bush, trump, anyone)
4.) no milquetoasts/squishes (_will_ fight back against the media when justified)
5.) saints (no scandals)
6.) no too many ties to corporations and special interests
these are the six pillars to the perfect candidate
