"On Tuesday night, Democrats flipped two Republican-held state legislative seats -- one in Oklahoma, one in New Hampshire -- that Donald Trump carried in the 2016 election.

That makes six turnovers from Republican to Democrat in contested state House and Senate races so far in 2017 -- and 26 out of 35 races (at the state legislative and congressional level) in which the Democratic nominee has overperformed Hillary Clinton's showing last November. (Worth noting: Republicans have yet to flip a Democratic-controlled seat so far this year.)"

Not saying this one seat is important. Just saying look at the trend....

But also three other seats in OK and two in NH since last November.

I’m not saying the sky is falling we just can’t dismiss it either and get the gop off its’ arse.

Wasn’t their some kind of sex scandal that several Republicans were involved with in Oklahoma? I believe that is the reason more than it’s against Trump.

A surge always backs off a little, doesn’t it....especially massive ones. And, please advise how many state houses have turned from R control to D as a result of these 6 nothingburgers. None, I’m sure.

Repubs in congress weaken daily with their failure to advance conservative bills.

The GOPe in Congress want the Dems to take over. They do not know how to lead, they do not want to lead, and they really want what the lleftist laws and policies because it enriches themselves and adds to their power while enabling them to say it isn't their fault.

The election of Trump stopped their game and they are being shown for who they really are; duplicitous liars.

Way too many grammatical errors.

I think I’ll stop posting now and take a nap.

The Riggers are hard at work, undoing the Nov election, one rep at a time.....just like the globals are undoing Brexit, one delay after another.

Maybe people are beginning to send a warning signal to Trump that we aren’t happy with the snake oil he seems to have sold us last fall.

That is where local GOP committee’s are so important. You can sway elections with a good GOTV effort.

If Trump had been on the ballot in these little elections, enough of his voters probably would have shown up to put the Republican candidates in office.

Not interested in running, I don’t want power over others, and I’m not crying.

You’re the one that wants to fix the GOP, not me.

And you failed to answer why I should vote for the GOP.
