    University of Virginia Center for Politics director Larry Sabato said Monday on CNN’s “Newsroom” that the Supreme Court unanimously overturning a Colorado Supreme Court ruling that disqualified former President Donald Trump from the ballot will motivate voters for President Joe Biden. Sabato said, “He’ll never change because it’s worked for him. And it may work again. You know, in the end, Jim, you can’t save the people from themselves. If they’re determined to reelect him after he organized that insurrection, arguably our first coup d’état, then there’s nothing to stop the people from doing that.” He added, “Now, in particular,...

    VIDEOOn January 2, 2024 Larry Sabato of the Univerisity of Virginia's Center for Politics kicked off the election year by poisoning the political well by declaring that "Trump engaged in insurrection" during an appearance on C-SPAN'S "Washington Journal." Even Jack Smith who suffers from extreme TDS did NOT charge President Donald Trump with insurrection yet Larry has decided that Trump is guilty of it based on what, we don't know. Certainly nothing legal. Of course, Sabato tried to act like he wasn't an extreme partisan by then going on to state that Trump should be allowed on the ballots despite...

    Breitbart ^ | 09/25/2023 | A Washington Post poll shows former President Trump beating His Fraudulency Joe Biden by ten points,
    A Washington Post poll shows former President Trump beating His Fraudulency Joe Biden by ten points, and that has given left-wing propagandist Larry Sabato a serious case of the sadz. Sabato, an unhinged Trump hater, also got a case of the madz that was so acute he became a danger to democracy by questioning the oh-so-precious corporate media. Let’s not forget that questioning the media puts us all at risk. That didn’t stop the disgraced Sabato, who said the Washington Post should’ve risked democracy itself by not publishing the poll. Yes, Sabato is such a fascist he admits that if...
  • Senate Now Rated a Toss-up After Most Primaries Have Been Held (Sabato's Crystal Ball)

    The race for control of the U.S. Senate is heading toward the home stretch and after almost all the primaries have been held, both Republicans and Democrats have a case to be made that they have a good shot at ending up with a majority of the upper chamber. Reading the tea leaves this election is especially difficult. Sabato’s Crystal Ball rates the battle for Senate control a tossup. Others think the Republicans have a one or two-seat edge. Even in a “red wave” election, winning the Senate is going to be an uphill battle for Republicans. Of the 35...
  • Trump faces backlash for labelling Powell 'RINO' just one day after he died

    was bombarded with criticism on Tuesday for labeling late Secretary of State Colin Powell a 'RINO' who 'made plenty of mistakes' in a statement one day after Powell's death of COVID-19 complications at age 84. In an email full of mixed messages, Trump commented on the posthumous praise Powell has been receiving since Monday morning and said he hoped he'd get the same treatment 'one day.' 'Wonderful to see Colin Powell, who made big mistakes on Iraq and famously, so-called weapons of mass destruction, be treated in death so beautifully by the Fake News Media,' Trump said in a statement...
  • Actor Antonio Sabato Jr. -- A Hollywood Pro-Trump Casualty?

    Townhall.com ^ | March 20, 2020 | Larry Elder
    In 2016, I was in the greenroom for a Fox News segment, where I met a charismatic actor named Antonio Sabato Jr. I had never heard of him. Born in Italy, he became, he told me, a "proud American citizen." He called himself a "Christian conservative" and said that he recently came out in favor of presidential candidate Donald Trump and planned to speak at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. Given Hollywood's hostility toward Republicans, let alone pro-Trump Republicans, I assumed Sabato's career was likely in decline, if, in fact, he ever really had one. Why else would...

    ...“A race-by-race analysis of Democratic House targets shows the party is close to winning the majority, but they do not have it put away, in our judgment, with Election Day less than three weeks away,” said Kyle Kondik, managing editor of Sabato's Crystal Ball in his new post. ...the Democrats in a worst-case scenario could be four seats shy of the needed 23 needed to install Rep. Nancy Pelosi as speaker. Of course there are caveats, such as the impact of the huge influx of money to Democrats and President Trump’s decision to campaign furiously through Election Day, but the...

    University of Virginia Center for Politics Director Larry Sabato joins MSNBC's 'MTP Daily' with host Chuck Todd to discuss the Republicans struggling in states Trump won in 2016. Sabato said Trump is in trouble in the Midwest, a part of the country where he did well in 2016, and it "seems to be flipping" in the midterm year. He said the states he carried, it appears, to elect Democratic Senators. "Even if the Republicans hold the Senate given the very pro-Republican math that exists, President Trump is in trouble in some of these states," Sabato said. "He's fallen considerably as...

    Washington Examiner ^ | 08/08/2018 | by Paul Bedard
    Confident talk in Washington that swaggering Republicans will fatten their majority in the Senate to a filibuster-proof 60 seats in the fall elections is shifting to nail-biting whispers the Democrats could take charge and install Sen. Chuck Schumer as leader. Already fretting odds that the House will turn Democratic and that potential Speaker Nancy Pelosi will open impeachment proceedings against President Trump, a path to a Democratic Senate is beginning to emerge based on historical statistics and the anti-Trump sentiment in some areas of the country. Geoffrey Skelley, associate editor of the University of Virginia Center for Politics’ Larry Sabato...

    MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A political analysis organization changed its ratings of multiple congressional races Tuesday, including West Virginia’s U.S. Senate and 3rd Congressional District contests. Sabato’s Crystal Ball, part of the University of Virginia Center for Politics, changed its ratings of the two races from “toss up” to “leans Democrat,” which is good news for U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and state Sen. Richard Ojeda. Manchin is running against Republican candidate and state Attorney General Patrick Morrisey for his second full term in the Senate. Ojeda, D-Logan, who caught the attention of national news organizations prior to and following the...
  • Top analyst: Dems now favorite to take House in midterms

    University of Virginia political analyst Larry Sabato says Democrats for the first time are the favorites to retake control of the House in this year's midterm elections. Kyle Kondik, managing editor of Sabato's Crystal Ball at the university's Center for Politics, said Tuesday that Democrats are now "soft favorites" for control of the chamber. "[F]or most of this election cycle the generic ballot has shown a consistent Democratic lead that suggests a very competitive battle for the majority. A high number of open seats — the highest number of any postwar election save 1992 — give Democrats many more targets...

Don Bacon (R, NE-2) moves from Toss-up to Leans Republican following liberal nonprofit executive Kara Eastman’s (D) upset of...

    WASHINGTON – He’s an Italian heartthrob actor with a striking grin that makes women swoon – and he’s knows a deep secret about Hollywood that could crush the best reputations and instantly kill established careers. Many in Hollywood and the movie industry secretly support President Trump, Antonio Sabato Jr. divulged to WND, and they’re itching to take California back from the grips of socialist Democrats. In fact, behind the scenes, several Hollywood figures have expressed enthusiastic support for Sabato and his bid for Congress. “I can focus on the negative that is coming from Hollywood or focus on the positive:...

    Conservative model, actor, and California Congressional candidate Antonio Sabàto Jr. made an appearance on Wednesday’s edition of The View to discuss a wide range of political topics, so it was only a matter of time before things veered toward the hot topic of the day, immigration. Sabàto is an outspoken Trump-supporter who happens to be a child of Czech and Italian immigrants who legally brought him to the United States when he was 12 years old, but that didn’t stop Joy Behar and the other hens on The View from trying to use that against his positions on border security....

    Later this year — unless President Trump intervenes — the American people will get access to the last of thousands of secret government files about a turning point in the nation’s history: the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy. The National Archives this week released several hundred of the documents, which come from CIA and FBI files, and of course, JFK researchers are scrambling to see whether they contain any new clues about the president’s murder. But many more documents remain under seal, awaiting release by this October, the 25-year deadline set by the 1992 Kennedy Assassination Records Collection...

    Actor Antonio Sabato Jr. is running for Congress, challenging Rep. Julia Brownley (D-Westlake Village), who represents the southern central coast and most of Ventura County, according to documents filed with the Federal Election Commission on Monday. Attempts to reach the Republican candidate were unsuccessful Monday, but GOP strategist Charles Moran, who will serve as Sabato’s fundraiser, confirmed the run. Strategist Jeff Corless will serve as a top adviser. Sabato is a longtime actor best known for roles in “General Hospital” and “Melrose Place” and as a model for Calvin Klein underwear. In recent years he has appeared in several reality...

    New Hampshire may just have four electoral votes, but it’s important. If you doubt it, just ask any Granite State citizens, and they’ll tell you about their first-in-the-nation primary. Even that quartet of electoral votes can matter; in 2000, if Al Gore had just won them (and without Ralph Nader on the ballot, he probably would have), Gore would have been president even without Florida. He didn’t and he wasn’t. Since 2000, we’ve watched New Hampshire become more reliable for the Democrats in presidential years. Neighbor John Kerry of Massachusetts won 50.2% in 2004, and Barack Obama easily carried the...

    An electoral college map released Thursday from the University of Virginia Center for Politics projected Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton winning the November election by a landslide. UVA altered its map to reflect recent changes in the likely political leanings of certain states, but Clinton still easily came out on top. Larry Sabato, director of the UVA Center for Politics, explained what made the map different from most polls that reflect the more fickle tendencies of the electorate. The UVA electoral map focused on "the electoral fundamentals and fixed elements of politics that predetermine most votes, especially partisanship, demographics, and...

    12-10-15 1:32 PM EST: This was a very interesting exchange between Larry Sabato and Jon Scott of Fox News, and I think you all know who Larry Sabato is. Sabato is impressd by much of what Trump has been to pull off politically, but seems to be placing his bets on Ted Cruz. What do you think of what Sabato says here? Note: The polls listed within this are at least a couple of days old and then some. It remains to be seen what the media coverage of Trump's latest "ban Muslims for a while" thingamasay does to him....
