Motor-voter, early voting, same-day registration, blocking voter roll updates, vote-by-mail, Voter ID law suits, etc. gives the DEMs a 5-7% advantage in key districts around the country. The GOP has to overcome fraud which is getting more difficult every cycle.

Plus, if the GOP wins a slim majority in the Senate look for a few RINO defections keeping Dingy Harry in charge.

The GOP could have slowed down fraud if they’d just taken it seriously in the first place. Now the rats don’t care if you see them cheat, they only care that they get away with it.

I recently moved to Connecticut (from Massachusetts) and when I went to Registry to get my CT license, they wanted to sign me up to vote right away. Guess they figured since I was coming from Massachusetts, I was a shoo-in to vote Democrat. They are in for a surprise Nov 4!

Actually I'm pleasantly surprised to find that the demographics of my new town and the ones surrounding me lean conservative. I live in Fairfield county.

Look for McConnell, should he win, to offer to reinstate the old rules that gives more power to the minority party and to offer the Democrats some sort of “power-sharing deal”

I recall very clearly when Trent Lott and Bill Frist were majority leaders while we had a GOP Congress and W. Bush in the WH.
We had basically a 55-45 majority in. The senate after the 2002 elections, and Bush still couldn’t fill many vacancies in the circuit courts.
The gang of 12 (or whatever it was) managed to get a few “controversial” nominees (those who would abide by the Constitution- like Janice Rogers Brown) through, but when he left office there were a crap load of vacancies because the GOP played nice.
Now we have Reid ramming every leftist nominee straight down our throats, which is why I believe 8-9 circuits now have a majority appointed by dems.
It also explains why so many same sex marriage “bans” are being struck down.
I’m not hopeful of what a GOP majority will do, but the alternative is simply worse.
We conservatives have very few friends in Washington- “the self licking ice cream cone” as I heard it put recently.

It is more likely that two RAT senators will flip to GOP, ME and WV. They have already been talking about doing exactly that.
