Here in Arizona I got an “I voted” sticker.
It was in English and Spanish.

Nope...a wake up call though....It’s all about getting out the vote!! And maybe having decent candidates.

Complacency.

With Trump in office, nobody donated.

These most recent election results are a punch in the gut, for sure.

Virginia returned to their voter fraud ways.

The victories were well outside the margin of fraud.

I think the big problem is we have a huge swath of Trump voters, that are just that, Trump voters, if he is on the ballot they vote, if not they stay home. The big problem for 2026 and 2028 is going to trying to figure out how to get these people off the couch and to the polls when Trump is not on the ballot.

Not too worried about it. Truth and noral people tend to prevail, and even whe they don’t, fearlessness attaches to those who kbow where they came from and where they are going.

You lose your shit too easy. We’re fine. Blue candidates won in Blue states and cities. It only proves Dems have a pulse which isn’t sayin much.

Do we Reds have to win every election for you to fee warm and fuzzy? Knock it off, act like a man

His economic performance has been good for the country but not particularly good for the middle and working class voter.


How quickly they forget how bad they had it, under Briben?

A couple of things happened, the candidates in NJ and Virginia ran traditional Republican races and distanced themselves from the MAGA movement and Trump, Trump was barely involved in either race, when he’s not on the ballot and Republicans run away from him then the marginal Republican voter stays home.

Leftist democrats are still leftist democrats.

And conservatives need to learn to get off their butts and VOTE en mass.
