Just not sure why a 22 point underperformance by the dems is something that should upset be as a Republican?
This. Unless Remain wins by 20+ points, this should be seen as a good omen for the GOP in 2022.
You recommend my posts enough to know that I am not optimistic about 2022, but this particular election is unique enough and far removed enough from 2022 that I don't think it will actually say much about the upcoming midterm. Statewide elections and their turnout during off-year elections can't really be compared to presidential years in some instances, especially a recall.
