    ABC has called it for Cruz already.

    On the plus side for Democrats, they took the Staten Island House race.

    How anybody could walk into a polling station and vote Ted Cruz is beyond all comprehension.


    If pushed, I'd vote Trump before that creepy cunt.

    he also seemed to trip over his own dick constantly and endorse shit that would guaranteed to give swingable republicans pause. per that politico article mentioned earlier, for literally no fucking good reason he casually signed off on impeaching trump, which like 80% of the regret-trumpers believe would be awful for america.

    all these numbers tell me is that a centerist left wing candidate is going to absolutely mug the new gilead crowd in about 18 months.

    I think it's more likely a fear of Beto being a Dem than his actual policies.

    Cruz is a slave. A slave to big corporations, not voters.

    Suckers

    interesting comment..i was wondering if any side would try this and have success with it...I was always hopeful that I would see some centrist candidates run for president (or as a rep/senator)...I thought that we were in the downward spiral that would keep seeing us get dogshit that was as left or as right as humanly possible...

    I literally don't follow politics at all because it is absolute and total fucking AIDS and cringeworthy AIDS at that on both sides...I do wonder if I read all the bios of the 530+ reps/senators that I would trust like 5% to clean up my dog's shit, let alone do something productive to run the country...I mean when im watching bob hugin commercials that are like 'bob menedez went to the Caribbean to fuck underage prostitutes', I don't give a shit...what the fuck are you going to do if you're elected to make NJ and the country better...

    Been saying it for a year plus. Your run Warren or Sanders and it’s going to be a trump win. Get Booker up in the pen and send him in. Checks every box. Don’t have to bother sending him into all of 6 states, the other 44 are irrelevant.

    The only takeaway is that the divide between rural and urban areas has never been larger, and all the gerrymandering coupled with the electoral college giving equal represntation in the senate to states that have absurdly low populations are all flowing in the republicans direction atm.


    The popular vote is projected at D+9.2, yet they lost seats in the senate to a bunch of backwards ass states with low populations.

    I mean Obama got crushed and lost 60 whatever seats and that first midterm was R +7.2


    Historically this is one of the larger repudiations of a sitting president, yet it really isn’t worth much.



    1994: R+7.1%
    2006: D+8.0%
    2008: D+10.6%
    2010: R+7.2%
    2014: R+5.7%

    This is a huge win in terms of votes cast.

    Wasn't even aware of this stat, but it means something to me if it helps bring America back to the table on climate change.

    He took a principled stand and the correct one. Trump is fucking toxic and should be impeached.

    In any event, some interesting details from exit polling.

    https://www.cbsnews.com/live-news/20...ay-2018-11-06/
    Texas exit polling results

    Voters in Texas are relatively split about what they think the most important problem is facing the country, according to exit polls. More than one-third of voters believe that health care is the most important problem and among them, more than two-thirds voted for Democrat Beto O'Rourke.

    Of the third of voters who believe that immigration is the most important problem, about three-quarters support Republican Sen. Ted Cruz. Nearly a quarter of voters things the economy is the country's biggest problem, and among them, the majority voted for Mr. Cruz.

    Voters who believed that the nation's economy is in a good place supported Cruz, while those who felt the economy is poor supported O'Rourke. When asked whether tax laws passed last year affected their personal finances, the majority who were affected positively supported Cruz and the majority affected negatively supported O'Rourke.

    Twenty-two percent of voters in Texas were voting in a midterm for the very first time. These voters leaned towards O'Rourke by 7 points, while return voters favored Mr. Cruz by 6 points.

    Young voters overwhelmingly supported O'Rourke, 71-29 percent. Voters ages 30-44 leaned towards him, 51-47. Voters over the age of 45 favored Cruz, 58-41.

    College graduates split their votes evenly between the two Senate candidates, while those without a degree voted for Cruz, 53-46 percent.

    White evangelicals favored Cruz with 83 percent of their votes, while those not in this group supported O'Rourke by a nearly 2-to-1 margin.
