Let's talk Democrats a little bit here too:

Rep. Kurt Schrader was one of the 5 Members who initially opposed BBB and then voted for it after the BIF was passed.
Rep. Stephanie Murphy did not bother to even run for Re-Election. It remains to be seen what happens to Rep. Josh Gottheimer in NJ.

If Jamie McLeod-Skinner (OR-5) and Summer Lee (PA-12) win that bodes very bad News for Henry Cuellar in TX on Tuesday.

So Democrats purging out their moderates as well.

Moderate Democrats: Actively worked to derail their party’s signature legislative effort on behalf of Republican donors.
Moderate Republicans: Doesn’t explicitly say they will end democracy, wears pants in public

There’s a bit of a difference here.

Lol, most "moderate" Democrats vote with Biden >80% of the time.

Now can we stop saying the GOP is a cult of Trump?

So I guess this is as good a time as any to say that my PA-ticket was Oz/Mastriano/DelRosso (etc. etc.).

There are no moderate Republicans, huh

He could like Mastriano and still disapprove of his election conspiracy theories.

PRELIMINARY VOTE NUMBERS FOR A PRIMARY MEAN EVERYTHING! Rs WILL GET 300 SEATS! RUN FOR THE DAMN HILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

It's just a interesting data point.. 

I was just satirizing the Atlas users who triangulate everything.

Well, most Atlas red avatars are coping and denying the impending red wave that is coming.

Joy Hofmeister got the nod for OK-Gov.

She was literally a Republican until a year ago or something.

Cassidy losing is a big L for hopes of moving the GOP in an economically moderate direction.

The only thing I can really say about last night's primaries is that I am very disappointed that Eva Braun won the primary in IL-15. Watch Paladino win in New York now. We're so polarized in this country that we can't even agree that praising Hitler in any way=unacceptable anymore.

Miller won because Davis was seen as very moderate. If she was up against a more solid conservative she might have lost. Paladino‘a main opponent is chairman Nick Langworthy who hasn’t alienated the MAGA crowd the way Davis has.

Yes, however Paladino is an institution in WNY unlike Miller. I mean look at the map for NY-GOV in 2010, Paladino got destroyed statewide but got Assad-like margins in WNY/Buffalo area.
And he's got a Trump-like ability where he has so many controversies people sort of ignore them.

Paladino was seen as a fairly normal Republican in 2010. It wasn’t until long after that race he went off the deep end.

LOL Paladino was NOT a "fairly normal Republican" in 2010. His race had constant scandals and controversies.

He literally said he wanted Obama to die of mad cow disease late in 2016!!!

The weird thing is that No is outpolling Biden by 20%+ in Riley and Shawnee but only by 10% in Wyandotte.

Wyandotte is mostly black so that would probably explain it.
