they'll learn that pennsylvania has always been a far left state but that new yorkers are so concerned about crime that the republicans' perceived advantage on it helped them win big in what was considered a safe blue state so the dems need to double down and take away their advantage on tough on crime

The election is going to result in a hilariously weird outcome where the Republicans have a narrow 4-seat majority in the House that was made possible entirely by districts from New York City that flipped over crime, and in the same election, they lost almost every southern Texas district and every lean Republican district in Ohio.

This sure was a weird one.

The (now former) head of the DCCC is one of the four Democrats in NYC who lost a seat to a Republican, lmao.

Just to clarify how weird and crazy the situation is:

- The head of the DCCC lost to a Republican.
- 4 districts in LIBERAL NEW YORK CITY VALUES flipped to Republicans.
- Democrats lost a suburban and highly educated district in New Jersey that was the district of an incumbent running for re-election.
- Republicans successfully defended two districts in Miami that people assumed were flukes in 2020.

Yet, at the same time:

- Democrats are doing better in Montana than they did in districts in the middle of NYC.
- The #4 of the Republican conference who had a gerrymandered R+9 district to protect her lost to a random Democrat.
- Democrats are leading a race in Alaska to beat both Sarah Palin and the Republican grandson of the Alaskan politician who over half of all government buildings in Alaska are named after.
- Dems took an R+13 district in southern Ohio.

Literally 100% of the Republican majority is likely to come from deep NYC and suburban New Jersey.

And Dems are likely going to to keep the losses to a minimum because, in the same election they got spanked in NYC, they are flipping Republican districts in rural PA, suburban NC, Alaska, and rural Ohio.

The Republican party is going to have a tiny house majority powered by New York courts that tossed out the Democratic gerrymander, orthodox Jews, and New York City urbanites upset about crime.

Truly a weird one.

lol, I've watched democrats do that "destruction of a fundamental right in abortion" dance for decades; they're not going to stop their streak now when it's proven to be so lucrative election-wise & for fundraising.

Sure the dems will keep fundraising on the most important election of our lives, but this time the republicans had actually pulled the trigger and killed Roe and the response was, well, mostly stasis. Abortion will never again be as strong of a campaign issue as it was this cycle. Republicans grabbed a political third rail with both hands and was only mildly singed for it

Like, think of all the decorum breaches that have happened in the last two years: abortion, trampling voting rights, insurrection!, and then consider that the response at the very height of relevancy for any of those things was to barely hold the Senate and to not lose the House by too much. Barely losing may be the best showing in a midterm in a generation, but we've been told repeatedly that republican actions were signs of the total destruction of democracy

The cynical democrats who knew Jan 6th and abortion rights were all a big joke to fundraise on without doing anything should absolutely be claiming their victory and patting each other on the shoulders right now.

The true believer idiot democrats who think Jan 6th was an insurrection or that the democrats really do care about protecting anyone under seven figures net worth's rights should be making GBS threads themselves in absolute terror that *this* was the best America could do in the face of existential crisis.

Dems lost the house by 1-9 seats, are -1 to +1 in the Senate, and a mixed bag on governorships. Weed is legal in Maryland and Missouri, Michigan says they're ending Right To Work as their first action, I don't think we've heard anything else yet.

Sorry, Maryland, not New Jersey.
