US Elections 2018: Democrats take House, Republicans keep Senate, - Polidicks

Ohio is just red now, maybe move to Michigan.

Jesus this is comical, just a poorly written constitutional fanfic and some people think it's actually real

Not as strong a result as I wanted nationwide. However here in Michigan we got just about everything I wanted. I think the only thing that we didn't get that was possible was a supreme court majority, now it should be a mostly split court with a moderate republican in the middle. But hey, legal weed, independent redistricting, and voter rights plus a dem gov, AG, secretary of state and 2 pickups in the house is good enough for me.

They both passed with a margin of more than 20%, prop 2 had 22%, prop 3 had 34%. Also prop 1 (marijuana possession) passed with a margin of 12%.

Qanon is legitimately an online cult. Before it got banned off Reddit, there were countless posts of "My [friend/family] won't talk to me because they [think I'm crazy/don't want to talk about Q]".

Better yet: give us back Toledo.

Where do they congregate now

Voat.

This is literally the exact mentality of Mitch McConnell and other republicans who's goal it is to blok all Democrat actions.

Wow, I didn't realize until now that my district (which went blue last night) hasn't been blue since the 70s.

If both sides were equal, you'd have a workable argument. But they're not, and you don't. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mICxKmCjF-4 Americans need to stop Republicans from fucking up the country before things get so bad, it'll take decades to recover.

Dennis Hof, the brothel owner who died last month, wins election so dead-set on voting red that you don't even care if the person you're voting for is still alive as long as they've got an R next to their name

Ohio continues the tradition of being awful

I'm thinking canada and putting a lake between me and them

If you really want to move I don't blame you.

you don't want it. Plus you'd have to give the UP back to Wisconsin

It reads like an AI is just piecing fortune cookies together into sentences.

Live from Trump right now, effectively: "Wow, guys, we won big last night. Nobody gains Senate seats and we overperformed on projections for the House. Just look at all these navel-gazing numbers I'm going to use to hide our huge loss."

>His body was discovered by porn actor Ron Jeremy and a prostitute at the brothel. Is this real life?

They voted for him since if he won a Republican would be appointed to fill the seat.

We never wanted that anyway.

Trump is now advocating that the Senate just become his rubber stamp. "You guys lost last night, not me, and you lost because you decided to grand-stand and not be in lock-step with me."

The Senate is becoming more Trumpy, with rabid Trumpsters replacing more independent GOP senators in Tennessee and potentially Arizona. (Please god Sinema win)

Oh so just like already, cool.

The purple puddle wins once again! Corporate whore parties.

That ship sailed in 2008. "The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president."

No, the undertone set there is quite different. This is Trump basically saying 'we've been obstructionist so far -- if you do this, government will come to a screeching halt and this will become a war'. Like the sort that involves rules being rewritten to stifle Dems, kicking them entirely out of any committees, et cetera, while they'll yell to the public 'The Dems are making us do this. They refuse to be bipartisan so they can't be allowed to be on these committees because they weren't willing to compromise to begin with'. If that sounds like another step to fascism, it's because that's exactly what it sounds like -- Trump is going to green light any and every tactic to use against any sitting Congressperson anywhere in the Congress.

You're goddamn right it's the same mentality and it's 100% justified. Why are the Republicans allowed to be uncompromising fascists and spit in the face of progress but Democrats aren't allowed to be unashamedly left wing? Compromising and letting these lunatics do what they want unchallenged is masochistic and misguided.

Then Untitled 2020 Democrat President ought to add new states to tip the balance and make it impossible for Republicans to have a majority.
