Is this a case of unusually heavy Dem turnout, or unusually low Rep turnout? Is there any evidence that Reps changed sides?
Why the low turnout? Any theories?
Take a look at these Democrats in Ohio that CNN showed this morning...

I’m surprised CNN would air this.
Just too uninformed, I would imagine.
The bottom line is that nonstop negative propaganda works. It kept the “captive nations” of the world in thrall to Communism for a long, long time. Sure, some people got over the wall. But most did not try.

THIS!
Perhaps the data nerds will note that only 12% of registered Republicans turned out to vote.
Self-inflicted.

Self Inflicted BY THE GOP-E though. We have people like Graham, Flake etc attacking POTUS and others working within the party to protect the establishment and Clinton with this Russian collusion dossier, and to work against the POTUS on policy.
Why WOULD we vote for these jackasses?
Media hysteria 24/7 has stoked the Dems.

And depresses our side along with the GOP establishment working AGAINST POTUS.
Democrats can ALWAYS overperform. They cheat. The GOP DOES need to get out the vote. BUT, ENOUGH OF THE HYSTERIA PLEASE!
!
More Never Trumper garbage from Gope Globalist Allahidiot .
This fraud and his Never Trump blog are not a crediable source.
This Bushbot is a liar .
Lack of Republicans getting out to vote despite all the advertising.
Could it be a combination of voter fraud and Republicans not showing up to vote?
What will be done about it?
Did the Republican candidate campaign heavily and speak out for votes against the Obama era/democrat?
The GOP sticking their middle finger up to their own base is a very serious problem. They have revealed themselves to be total frauds.

This is all that needs to be said...period.
They’re doing it intentionally as well. They are safe in their district and will have their salary and power regardless. Might as well work against Trump and sabotage the majority to take him down.
oh really his approval rating was 45% just 8 days ago.
Agreed. A lot of people are staying home because of this.
I think it’s Pubbie voters in safely red areas being in snooze mode. That’s what happened here in AL. Everyone knew Moore was a lock. He was such a lock that you could safely stay home if you found him unsavory, or if you just had other things to do than think about a special election. No one knew how fired up and organized the Democrats were going to be. There was a freight train coming but nobody was paying attention and we got run over. I would suggest that awareness and fear of Democrat enthusiasm is what’s needed about now.
And that “35% approval” is what all the idiots at mediaite spew.

Yep first thing I see on twitter or in comment sections of news blogs from Trump haters.
Bet establisment RINOs must have served a reel booger to insure the flip. Lots of em in the farm system.
EVERY hourly NPR or AP news update has an attack, pure lies and out right slander on President Trump. It is sickening. What is worse is that most Americans have minds of mush with a lack of critical thinking skills.
Yeah but look at Alabama. Moore wasn’t a GOPe jackass. He was a solid pro-Trump conservative. Granted he was tarnished by the last minute smears but I have a feeling that even those who were squeamish about him would have come out and voted for him if they thought the risk of the Democrat getting elected were real. I think there is a grave lack of awareness of risk on our side right now, at least in the normally safely red areas. I almost wonder if the less overwhelmingly red areas might not be safer because they’re more on guard.
We're doomed. DOOOOOOMMMED I tell ya!
