you don't live in nj-05 even
Are you agreeing with me Ralph?
The reality is, that we’re dealing with a blue wave. Every sign indicates that. Every poll, every GCB, trump approval, and the fundamentals of being in a midterm under an unpopular president
Good, somebody sees the truth.
We will lose lots of seats
we should get buttonmash or whatever his name was back on
I think he'd love talking to you about karen.
If you're gonna talk about it like that, join the natsoc revolution server.
If you think
we're so doomed
the only way we can win
is some sort of revolution
Then leave
But it's time to accept facts Yellowhammer. The main reason we lost 05 is because of low voter turnout from right-wingers. If we can get high right wing voter turnout, we can win NJ-05 because it simply has more right wingers.
It is mostly rural, but it's more like small town rural, not complete desert wilderness with absolutely no people.
Think rural england.
Of course, right wingers are notorious for low voter turnout.
no, they're not.
At least in new jersey.
And despite it being so rural and so "right wing", it voted Trump 49-48.
There’s like a 2% chance it flips. We have a bad candidate with bad fundraising running against a moderate who is an ok fit for the district, in a dem wave year that is hitting suburbia hard. I’m not giving up, just saying we need to be strategic in which races we target. This one is not a hill to die on.
if the majority of municipalities in it are right wing with more then 50% voting right wing
I consider it right wing.
And if the majority of land in it is rural
it's not more than 50%
I consider it rural.
let's see
It is rural but it's rural like Vermont is rural.
In the 2012 presidential election, Republican Mitt Romney received 3,269 votes (62.8% vs. 59.4% countywide), ahead of Democrat Barack Obama with 1,800 votes (34.6% vs. 38.2%) and other candidates with 119 votes (2.3% vs. 2.1%), among the 5,203 ballots cast by the township's 7,467 registered voters, for a turnout of 69.7% (vs. 68.3% in Sussex County).[66] In the 2008 presidential election, Republican John McCain received 3,454 votes (62.2% vs. 59.2% countywide), ahead of Democrat Barack Obama with 1,987 votes (35.8% vs. 38.7%) and other candidates with 74 votes (1.3% vs. 1.5%), among the 5,551 ballots cast by the township's 7,319 registered voters, for a turnout of 75.8% (vs. 76.9% in Sussex County).[67] In the 2004 presidential election, Republican George W. Bush received 3,300 votes (67.0% vs. 63.9% countywide), ahead of Democrat John Kerry with 1,564 votes (31.7% vs. 34.4%) and other candidates with 48 votes (1.0% vs. 1.3%), among the 4,928 ballots cast by the township's 6,500 registered voters, for a turnout of 75.8% (vs. 77.7% in the whole county).[68] for wantage township
That's six years ago. And over the past 16 years, it's voted in presidential elections progressively LESS Republican.
So you're saying the countryside is getting more left wing?
It's not new england liberal, lol.
it's evidently getting more left wing
that's the whole district
and that's because the suburbs are getting more people
and the whole district is what elects the congressional rep
are you really saying that gop turnout will be HIGHER than 2016 levels for this midterm?
I'm saying if we can get very high voter turnout among the large areas of the district that are right-wing culturally and politically.
We can possibly win.
