And this happened since 2017. Your reaction? What will be the political climate?
(I know, the scenario is HORRIBLE for Dems)
2018 midterm elections:House:
232 GOP,
203 Dem; Dem net gain: +9
Senate:
55 GOP,
45 Dem; GOP net gain: +3 (IN, ND and MO flip GOP, no Dem pick-ups)
2020 elections:✓ President Donald Trump (R-NY)/Vice President Mike Pence (R-IN): 296 EVs.; 47.7%Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA)/Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ): 242 EVs.; 49.2%House:
243 GOP,
192 Dem; GOP net gain: +11
Senate:
54 GOP,
46 Dem; Dem net gain: +1 (CO flips Dem, no GOP pick-ups)
2022 midterm elections:House:
227 GOP,
208 Dem; Dem net gain: +16
Senate:
52 GOP,
48 Dem; Dem net gain: +2 (GA, NC and WI flip Dem, NH flips GOP)
2024 elections:✓ Vice President Mike Pence (R-IN)/Secretary of State Nikki Haley (R-SC): ~273 EVs.; 48.1%Senator Martin Heinrich (D-NM)/Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI): ~265 EVs.; 50.3%* EVs depending on the allocation follwing the 2020 census; but map would almost certainly lead to a narrow GOP win in the ECHouse:
235 GOP,
200 Dem; GOP net gain: +8
Senate:
54 GOP,
46 Dem; GOP net gain: +2 (NV flips Dem (plus pick-ups from ME and VT), MT, FL, OH flip GOP)
