I see two major possibilities (there are probably more)
They quit? So you are saying they resigned? Or did they simply choose not to run again? Talk about revising history.
A net gain in the Senate? We'll be lucky to keep it 50-50. And it's the norm to gain seats in the House and the Senate for the party not occupying the White House. IMO we would have had a much better shot at gaining a majority in the Senate if Trump had stayed out of the primaries. And quite possibly a larger gain in the House.
My post was from last Thursday night. In our current time of election day lasting a week and a half, sudden drops of undocumented ballots, ostensibly ran through machines multiple times, coupled with the total disallowance of audits, then sure, your critique stands. But my comment was made when the 'story' was still being told of net gains. It's disingenuous to use my statement from Thursday, that matched known details, to point out an error that only exist now due to the, ahem, ongoing-election-day-counting-six-days-later. Since you're aware it's a "norm to gain seats", then you too might start to wonder the why and how all statistical probabilities are being turned on their head. Something is fishy and it ain't the Orange Man.
Last Thurs it was iffy if we would have gained in the Senate. As for the rest of your post. We didn't win they must have cheated!!! I'm not saying they didn't but as for now...
What difference does it make? They all had their public excuse. Ryan’s was to spend time with his children. They quit…
No they didn't quit. They finished their term and decided not to run again. That is not quitting. It's like saying someone has a contract to do a job, and they finish said job and decide not to sign another contract that they quit. What you are doing IS revisionist history.
IMO, I don't believe the people who count the votes would have allowed that either
We didn't win it must be Trump's fault!!!
Lake? You mean the one that is currently down in the count? In a state that currently has a Repub Govenor. And didn't Masters lose?
Never said it was all Trump's fault. Although IMO he definitely didn't help, and we probably would have done better without his "help".
And the vote count goes on.... The election was Nov. 7th.
Once again we lost so they cheated. And he didn't back who my guy backed. Perhaps Trump should have backed who McConnell backed?
Some of the states did cheat by not passing the mail-in voting in the legislature. But those that passed them constitutionally still hurt the conservatives and killed the red wave. As we discussed previously here, republicans are still getting out the Election Day vote but getting creamed by the democrats election season. That had far more negative effects than anything else folks come up with…
There are reports of community organizers taking a troup of the local gang with them into apartment buildings, going door to door gathering votes. The safest place to vote is in person at a polling place. However conservatives must still contend with the precincts that have thug enforcers going around, like reported in Detroit…
Are we talking the current election or 2020? For the mail-in voting that is.
There is a reason why electioneering and coercion isn't allowed outside of polling places. The same thing should be applicable to those that go out and bring the polling place to others in order to harvest ballots. To me that environment is ripe for electioneering and coercion which is prohibited at polling places.
