Hey all, just stopping by to tell y'all that I'm 28 and voted for the first time today in no small part to this thread. I live in Brooklyn so I'm still convinced it mostly doesn't matter but small victories I guess.

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:at which point the gop will retake the house and begin the cycle anew. congressional leadership continue to live in a money-fueled bubble Yeah, they're going to get back in eventually and do as much damage as they possibly can when they do. They've got a gameplan and they're sticking to it. There's really no permanent going back from where we are now. The trump playbook is going to be used for the GOP potus candidates for the foreseeable future and when they get someone with some actual intellect and competence in power with a stacked bench and legislature we're probably boned.

Meh, yeah damage has been done, but Trumps messaging only appeals to like 35% of Americans, even less than the GOP majority, and its starting to become toxic. Already they are blaming Trump campaigning as the numbers come in. Trump largely benefited from low voter turnout, not from increasing GOP support.

The voting precinct i've been attending since 2012 and have never had to wait at had a 15 minute line in 38 degree weather and they'd already run out of stickers and the line was growing behind us, at 6PM. Holy poo poo.

Too bad, half the breweries in Lincoln are giving a free beer to anyone with a sticker. Probably the same in Omaha/elsewhere.

The story of this midterm is sky-high turnout. What that overall means for the vote totals/splits is still to be determined.

Working on hitting some dabs after a pleasant joint. Haven't looked at the news in an hour. An old friend I thought was solidly entrenched in the GOP has become surprisingly progressive. Proud of him for coming around.

Like I'm not saying there's actual hope in our current hell dimension, but they're being a bunch of drama babies.

The model sees that a bunch of “likely Republican” districts (particularly in Florida) are now 100 percent likely to go red.

So because Donnelly ran as a centrist in Indiana and got slaughtered whereas Brown ran next door in Ohio as a leftist and won handily, I cannot wait for the takes of the Democrats have to move to the center to roll in.
