CONGRESSIONAL RESULTS MEGA THREAD

[WD]

Damn, Tim Ryan really did poorly. Did Trump win that district?

[WD]

Sullivan is still overperforming Trump (not to mention he's getting more votes). Al Gross is pretty much the Randy Bryce of 2020.

Don’t sleep on Al Gross tho

What do you mean by “resources?” You can dump all the money you want into a race, you’ll still lose if you’re using a flimsy message against a politician who overwhelming majorities have a long history of voting for. A bad message doesn’t work just because you shout it louder.

I mean, there was a lot of stuff they could have attacked him on (flip-flop on Planned Parenthood funding, only voting for Kavanaugh after Collins had already decided, his support for Clinton, his lobbying/pharma ties, etc.). I do think ‘liberal puppet gone Washington and beholden to Chuck Schumer’ actually would have been a winning message, but obviously condensing and effectively disseminating said message is an entirely different story. They also allowed Manchin to nuke Morrisey early with negative ads when he had the airwaves to himself, his favorability rating on election day was abysmal.

I can’t wrap my head around the fact that they didn’t even push for Jenkins -- Morrisey was just an atrocious candidate. Losing that race was absolutely inexcusable.

Yeah, that was pretty bad. You know, I’m pretty conflicted on which was worse for the contesting Party: WV-SEN 2018 or ME-SEN 2020. You can say WV, because Morrisey should have done better on paper, simply due to WV’s partisan lean, and the general way the NRSC treated the race (lol), on the other hand, given how much effort the Democrats put into Maine, and the amount that Biden ended up winning the state by (the amount of ticket splitting this election was seriously underestimated) you could say that was even more embarrassing, especially given Gideon’s margin of defeat. Honestly I’d say that it’s WV for two reasons: 1. since Morrisey seems like a marginlly worse candidate than Gideon (not that Gideon was a particularly good candidate) and 2. 2020 was not as Democratic as 2018, which may have saved Collins.

DDHQ calls NC-SEN for Thom Tillis.

I genuinely believe that Cunningham would have won if not for the scandal. What a fool.

Lee County, Iowa:
Trump +19
Miller-Meeks +13
Ernst +6

Gotta love those #Populist Trump-Greenfield voters

[WD]

It would be kind of hilarious to see Brindisi win while Shalala lost.

The whole election is just a meme at this point.

Globalism strikes back!

The Deep State always wins.

Christy Smith will be joining Amy McGrath, Robby Mook, and Cal Cunningham in the gulag.

Don't forget Shalala!

NUT. Look at all those #Populists in Howard and Lee Counties.

Howard county's transformation is stunning, Romney got 39% of the vote in 2012 and Trump got 63%, in just 8 years white voters in this county have gone from around 40% Republican to almost 65%, similar to the shifts you saw in the upper south under Bush among white voters in rural areas.

Yep. Swings in places like Howard is why Iowa is gone for the Democrats for the foreseeable future.
