We've scientifically demonstrated that most voters have heard DeSantis' name more recently than Trump's.

The outcome is pretty interesting as well because of how state dependent it was and you had strong swings one way or another in states adjoining each other.

and the democrats did get loving rocked it was great and i can't wait for abrams and co to waste another billion dollars taking runny shits on ballots

sad that the party still exists and wasn't destroyed in a single fabulously cathartic moment of destruction but that was to be expected

I just crunched the numbers and 42% of all votes for Fetterman came from the Philadelphia area, despite the fact that he's a Pittsburgh rear end in a top hat.

I'm sure, going forward, that statewide politicians will spend 42% of their time and their energy in the Philadelphia region, and make sure those voters reap the benefits of their support, with progressive legislation

Patrick Maloney kicked a progressive (Mondaire Jones) out of his district so that Maloney could have a safer race, and then lost because he went all-in on agreeing with Republicans that NYC is a Mad Max hellscape.

Meanwhile, in the district Maloney left (the supposedly more difficult one), a progressive got an upset win.

Naturally, the head of the NY Dems is saying AOC cost them a bunch of seats, and the governor agrees with him.

Schumer is backing AOC and the Progressives in that knifefight, it's going to be beautiful.

I remember people got mad about it but the DCCC's strategy of supporting the most godawful Trump lovers in the Republican primary actually worked. Everywhere the DCCC spent money to influence the Republican primary the Republican they supported was too crazy to win a general. It's genuinely surprising that didn't backfire.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
