I think one of them got called in the last 7 minutes.

New York 11, that is.

That’s my district, Malinowski lead by 6,500 votes. Should be able to hold on.

Yep, and it is now showing as called at the OP link.

Pretty decent gain in seats this year. Looks like the midterms will be made popular for a change.

Hard to say what the situation will be in 2022, since we have reapportionment and redistricting to do between now and then.

I’m thinking in terms of voters showing up to the polls. It usually has less turnout, right?

#8

Yes, generally far less turnout during the midterms. And with the very polarizing Trump gone, it probably drops even farther.

#9

Well, here’s hoping 71 million people show up.

Blue wave! The People want progressive policies!

The people, by a greater than 5 million vote margin, wanted ■■■■ for brains kicked out of the White House with an iron boot and they succeeded in doing just that. Whether he accepts it or not is irrelevant.

Republicans just need to nominate somebody that is not a ■■■■■■■ narcissistic sociopath in 2024 and they will be fine.

TDS is a complement, not an insult.

It is relevant.

The fact that Republicans did well in Congress and elsewhere, while Trump lost decisively, indicated that voters split their tickets, accepting Republicans in general, while repudiating Trump in particular.

The results are comprehensive enough at this point to make my conclusion inescapable.

Repubs lost between 1 -3 seats in the senate, lost the presidency, and failed to take back the house that they controlled 3 short years ago.

Yup-- Clearly Dems were rejected and it is a Red Wave…

Ok, if you say so.

:roll_eyes:

Dems failed to take back the Senate and lost a bunch of seats in the House.

I never claimed there was a red wave.

Did someone after the election claim it was a blue wave?

If not -Why the 1st comment?
