It is also difficult to measure the pro Roe v Wade Woman's rights vote. This is a group many of which normally don't vote who will this time. This is a direct parallel to the Trump Base who voted for the first time in 2016.

Both a dynamic that the polls likely will not measure till after the election. Several recent election votes fell victim to this. One state was polling republicans by 4% the actual vote went Dems by 16% A 20% swing against the republicans that they didn't see coming.

One scenario could see this applying across the board, probably not the most likely outcome but it is possible.

Yes, that may have an effect.
I think biden will lose some seats.

I think the US is in real trouble for a good leader.
Not Trump, not Biden, not kamala Harris.
Pence?

We had a run of Leaders that were voted out.
It was bad for the country

But I think the vast majority certainly don't want another Biden term more so.

Roe Vs Wade is simmering in the background,a short time back the polls indicated a Dem win based on the Roe Vs wade decision, now its close in most seats a 3 or 4 % margin, however I believe the Republicans are in for a few shocks, seats they expect to win easily may not go their way simply because they think that the decision has faded away from peoples minds.

A recent Harvard poll indicates that 40% of Gen Z (18 to 29 yr olds) will definitely cast a vote in the mid terms, up from a lowly 12% back in 2018. The main reason given, they dont want another Trump

Its going to be interesting to see if the Dems can buck the mid term trends.

In the elections a few months back this was included in the projected results of small wins to the republicans when the real result of the election turned out to be 20 points out of kilter with the polls.

This 20 points are still not included in the polls - they have no idea what is is or where it came from, if it happened again it will be a blood bath.

Let's put it to the test.

I hope the bloated orange alleged child rapist runs in 2024.

The look on his puffy face when he loses again (by 10,000,000 votes this time) will be priceless.

They're even going to make Focus 2 with Margot Robbie and Will Smith to help the manipulation of minds along in favour of the International Terrorist Democrats. Maybe Musk will help the Republicans with the Internet side of things?

Lol

You sure got that one wrong.

Don't get me wrong, I was expecting a red wave too, but it sure didn't turn out that way.

The Dems have actually flipped a senate seat - Fetterman has defeated fake Dr. Oz.

And, Democrat Josh Shapiro defeated far-right Republican Doug Mastriano in the Pennsylvania governor’s race.

The big loser tonight? Trump.

Most of the candidates he endorsed are doing quite badly, whereas the ones who kept their distance from him have done very well.

It's been a clear message from American voters that they're tired of Trump's bullshit.

He'll be annihilated in 2024 if he runs.

Let's hope he does.

The pink trickle Grin

Joe Biden defies history as Democrats dramatically outperform expectations in 2022 midterm elections

The US midterm elections are almost always a slap in the face of the president in power.

But in the face of a struggling economy, dire approval ratings and the slimmest of legislative majorities, Joe Biden has defied history with today's election results.

With a handful of Senate races and dozens of House of Representative races yet to be called, it appears possible that Biden's Democratic Party may have gained ground today.

Republicans needed to pick up a single seat to take control of the Senate. But at the count at the time of publishing, they are likelier to lose one.

And they needed to pick up five seats in the House of Representatives.

At the moment they have picked up seven seats, and lost two. There are 73 yet to be called.

Now now, Dnarever, that's rude. We wouldn't want our American friends to feel offended, now would we? Ah, the noble Grand Old Party. Or as Mr Trump calls it, puce-stained panties.

He loves a jolly old wheeze, no? The most honest prez maybe since George Washington. I mean, everybody's saying it, ya?
