I guess for me I thought Cruz would win by a larger margin in Texas, although the DNC poured a ton of Money into Beto. Otherwise it went as most thought it would as far as I can tell. not sure if there were any big takeaways that I could make out.
I was surprised that the three states that delivered Trump his victory (Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania) all elected Democrats for senate and governors. Seems like a big deal.
disappointing but not surprising. We sent the federal marshals down there for a reason. Too bad a bunch of lunatics on the SCOTUS felt the South was capable of governing honestly again.
No real surprises. Voting went pretty much as predicted, mixed bag for both parties. Blue wave turned out to be a blue flush, but it will serve as a check against the orange clown so I’m satisfied.
No huge surprises but this is a big victory for Democrats. They took control of the house. That’s huge. Don’t let anyone spin last night as a disappointment for DEMS.
Takeaways:
Women, women, women. A lot of women were elected and a lot of women voted for Democrats.
DEMS made huge gains in important presidential states. Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. All states that Hilliary lost and gave Trump the win in 2016.
I’m wondering when it will be safe to come out of my bunker. I heard America would be destroyed if she got elected. I haven’t seen the first wave of destruction hit yet…
No surprises if you’re a objective person who follows mainstream media. They got it right. Partisans on both sides seem surprised because partisanship is what, 60% analysis; 40% hope?
