Good analogies. They are canaries in the coal mine, which I willfully ignored in 2018.

How about the local LA race, which was a flip and which no R had won for decades?

I was not aware of that. LA is an Los Angeles? or LA as in Louisiana?

Well, did you look at turnout?

Did you know that in 2018, one of the D flips was on the basis of 100 votes? That they flipped several local seats by less than 1,000 across several states?

Trends are trends. We ignored this trend in 2017-2018. Don’t ignore it again, especially when the trend is your friend.

And don’t forget the LA race where an R won for the first time in decades.

Oh, and TexasGurl24 left one out:
There was a VA race in a HEAVY blue area where the De held-—so it didn’t make TG’s list. But the D margin of victory was shockingly low.

Richard Baris of PPD pointed that out. He also said, at the time, that the CT race was a huge indicator.

It was a Los Angeles race about a week ago. Very shocking, which is why no one heard of it. I can’t remember the details.

I’m not sure Rush even covered it, and Hannity is too busy tick-tocking to cover real news.
