Were there any surprises at all? The takeaways from the election results

What makes you think they were?

LOL…no he didn’t. What Trump endorsed candidate from primaries won?

How many of those 174 were contested races, where the Dems actually had a real shot?

This could be an interesting dynamic if the Reps do finally win a majority.

Because there’s way more stupid people than I thought.

It’s so much easier to attack the quality of the voter…. No self reflection necessary.

I’m also a bit surprised at how much losing by Trump is required to make people quit him.

I doubt we have even a remotely similar definition of quality, though I’ll grant the degradation of common sense and morality isn’t just in the Democrat side. There was a time when character actually mattered but that time is passed. Now it’s victory at any cost and everything else be damned, and THAT’S what’s going to be our downfall. We will go the way of Rome.

Again you are attacking people who didn’t think like you. Again because it’s easier than to address the elephant in the room

Dems won independents….

On a side note, I just watched Swing Vote with Kevin Costner. I had never seen it before this last weekend. Excellent movie that paints a perfect picture of voters and politicians. Worth watching…

I saw that and it was a pretty good movie.

Im a pretty black and white kind of person. Something is wrong or something is right. We all like to defend our own wrongs and it’s far easier to do that when there is no absolute standards and no one will judge the actions of others because they don’t want others to judge them. This always leads to moral decay. Always.

I judge myself first, by an absolute standards and I fall far short of that standard, but I continue to strive upward, and ask for divine help to meet that standard. I don’t lower it because it’s easier or more convenient…

You know damn well I don’t know the answer to that kind of question. You’ll have to ask the fans. :rofl:

I want a live view of him walking in the Senate chamber in his shorts and hoodie day one with his aide walking behind ready to push the voting button on the issues he can’t read or understand while PA voters swoon.

I don’t know how I missed it, it came out in 2008. I thought it was brilliant. I was really curious who he was going to vote for, but that wasn’t the point of the movie. Too bad we don’t, as a nation, exercise the same self reflection Bud Johnson did.

We get a picture of that every time Joe Biden speaks.

Trump is biggest loser last night. Biggest winner is media.

I think everyone’s just mad they didn’t get their way harder than what I predicted in November 2020. May as well lash out at Trump for it. :sunglasses:

I saw that- but it also said they haven’t updated that projection since 4 AM. This is current: As of 1 p.m. Wednesday, Frisch is leading Boebert 50.6% to 49.4% (149,421 votes to 145,946), in the race for Colorado’s 3rd District, according to the Associated Press.

In CA, the Los Angeles MAYOR race was the most important mystifying race.

Rick Caruso is a little ahead of Karen Bass

Caruso Vs Bass

Caruso was a Repub who changed to Democrat in 2019 and ran primarily on fixing the homeless disaster.

Look at how small the Vote is.

Look what Katy Perry did—even rich celebs are getting sick of the tent cities.
