Vanity-Hard Data From Last Night
Vanity ^ | 11/9/22 | LRoggy

Posted on 11/09/2022 4:23:37 AM PST by LRoggy

Governor/Senator Pairing Results

New Hampshire Sununu – 250,267 Bolduc - 196,600

Pennsylvania Mastriano – 2,207,541 Oz – 2,451,028

Georgia Kemp – 2,102,341 Walker – 1,900,186

Florida DeSantis – 4,604,337 Rubio – 4,465,369

Arizona Lake – 855,212 Masters – 802,933

New Mexico Ronchetti – 320,435 Laxalt – 418,461

Ohio DeWine – 2,434,524 Vance – 2,074,340

Wisconsin Michels – 1,243,914 Johnson – 1,311,336

There's no getting around these numbers. If it's all about fraud, then why didn't the votes have similar results?

Look at New Hampshire, that's a MASSIVE percentage difference between the two.

Ohio is officially Red, as is Florida.

McConnell needs to go, he oversaw this debacle of possibly not winning the Senate

McCarthy is on the hot seat, he oversaw the Red Trickle

Trump needs to stop making this about him, it's the Make America Great Again Movement, not the Donald J Trump Movement.

If you can't handle that, all you Nina Burleigh wannabe's, just remember why you voted for him in 2016 and 2020. In 2016, he would be the skunk at the party, and we had to keep Hillary Clinton from gaining control. In 2020, it was about the RESULTS he got, not his personality, which many of us who voted FOR THE ISSUES HE RAISED and overcame.

NOT the Man. Let that sink in. People like me vote for ISSUES at the federal level, not the man. We KNOW where he screwed up while President. His cabinet SUCKED. He didn't reward loyalty in his hires. He BRAGGED about speeding through the vaccines. Went along with the lockdowns. KEPT FAUCI and WRAY IN PLACE.

Stop genuflecting about him.

2024 is NOT HIS BIRTHRIGHT, he has to earn the votes and if he can't make this about MAGA instead of himself, we need a new leader to take that mantle.

Look at those numbers above and try to make the case he HELPED us win the Senate. And believe me, I think McConnell is HORRENDOUS for the Republican brand right now. Younger voters who are Republicans don't like him either.

Wake up and stop with the conspiracies and realize we are getting killed ON THE RULES of the elections and ON THE GROUND with younger voters and urban areas, where today's technology makes it easier to run up votes in those two groups. Heck, we didn't even have to worry about a Zuckerburg laying out $500 million for buying votes with gift cards this time around.

Here's the Exit Polls on AGE:

In Which Age Group Are You?

(18,474 Respondents)

Voted (D) Voted (R) 18-29 12% of respondents 63% 35% 30-44 21% of respondents 51% 47% 45-64 39% of respondents 44% 54% 65 or over 28% of respondents 43% 55%

We need to get real.

I voted for him BOTH TIMES

After 2016, I was one of the ten members of the Focus Group that the Palm Beach Post interviewed live on Facebook, if you feel like digging that up.

If you want to bury your head, that’s your right to do so. As I said, at the federal level I vote ISSUES, not the person.

I am an attorney in NH. I volunteered to help with the Republicans on Election Day at any poll location and I also volunteered with the Bolduc campaign. I received no response from either. Not that my volunteering would have turned the tide - but don’t you jump at the chance to get every volunteer you can get? I get the feeling that Republicans enjoy whining but not winning. If they win they actually have to do something. There is no boldness. In New Hampshire the Republicans were putting out ads that they have always protected abortion - talking about suppressing your base. That’s what they run on - defense? In this economic environment when it looks like we are going to potentially have people freezing in NH this winter because of the energy disaster????? Republicans are idiots and we need a bold, principled party that always stands for life and Liberty. Not mealy-mouthed whiners who cower when opposed.

Exactly.

Donald Trump is my favorite President, even more so than Ronald Reagan.

However, I think I’m moving on from him.

I like him in the role of a clarion-calling standard bearer, and his presidency was the best I have ever seen.

I don’t like him in terms of his failure to be a team player. I’m not even sure I like him as a kingmaker. Calling out numbers that try to put him in a good light, in a severely-disappointing election shows me he doesn’t care about the boots on the ground, but only how he looks.

Reagan faced the same Establishment hate and Media mocking, but he had a great way of playful rebuttal, with a twinkle in his eye and a little smile. America loved that. All the attacks mustered against him, failed, because he was able to gently turn it around on his attacker with a witty quip or a well thought out fact.

Reagan was also the author of the phrase, the 11th commandment, which was “Thou shall not attack a fellow Republican.”

Trump, on the other hand, has a serious ego problem. He cannot resist getting into a public verbal fight with anyone who criticizes him. While this was fresh and new in 2016, and propelled him into the presidency, it doesn’t work in 2022.

Also, the way Trump fights back is not nearly as good as Reagan’s style. Trump hasn’t got the charm of Reagan, and it’s beginning to hurt our side.

It is for these reasons that I must move on from Donald Trump. Sir, thank you for your incredibly wonderful service in 2016 through 2020. You made those years prosperous and sane. But it is time to move on.

I’m likely to get a ton of flak for this post. That’s okay, I can take it.

Or maybe it would have been far worse without Trump’s help

The real truth is that the Party did not help out candidates if they felt is was a list cause

EG. In Georgia Warnock had smear ads airing three months ahead of the election. They never stopped. Walker had ads on the Saturday before and only a few

Yes, Logistics MATTER, and we are not as good at it.

The lesson the Dems took from 2016 was not to rely on analytics (there’s plenty of this explained in the books written after Hillary lost) and get back to basics, like boots on the ground.

Governor/Senator Pairing Results

New Hampshire Sununu – 250,267 Bolduc - 196,600 (name recognition & money)

Pennsylvania Mastriano – 2,207,541 Oz – 2,451,028 (name recognition & Mastriano has "toxic masculinity")

Georgia Kemp – 2,102,341 Walker – 1,900,186 (an ex-football player with kids scattered around the country does not a good senator make)

Florida DeSantis – 4,604,337 Rubio – 4,465,369

Arizona Lake – 855,212 Masters – 802,933 (name recognition & Masters' personality and looks are no match for Kari's - tall gaunt looking pasty white guy compared to beautiful Hispanic looking woman with a silky voice)

New Mexico Ronchetti – 320,435 Laxalt – 418,461 (name recognition & money)

Ohio DeWine – 2,434,524 Vance – 2,074,340 (name recognition/incumbent & money & Vance seems like an elite snob)

Wisconsin Michels – 1,243,914 Johnson – 1,311,336 (incumbent and Thank God)

There's no getting around these numbers. If it's all about fraud, then why didn't the votes have similar results?

Prove it about ‘it would be worse’

The numbers I posted on both age and vote differentials aren’t fabricated. We know the Trump/Kemp dynamic; Walker is 200,000 votes shy of Kemp. Maybe Trump HURT Walker because of how he kept whining about Kemp and Raffensberger (who also won).

Who has more name recognition than Trump? None of those candidates.

Agree about Trump.

If he is the nominee in 2024 and drones on and on about HIMSELF and witch-hunts expect this same type of morning in a couple years.

Keep posting about how easy it is to collect and steam open envelopes that ONLY takes 5 minutes each!!!! 12 votes per hour. IF this type of fraud tipped the election last night we are beyond hope.

In PA Shapiro ran ads for 6 straight months in the Philadelphia market WITHOUT response from Mastriano. His predecessor Wolf did same. “Too extreme”, “dangerous”, said about someone without response makes a difference. OZ was always doomed because of the lackluster campaign at the top.

Can’t understand why no real effort exists to destroy the Democrat brand. To be successful in 2024 a National effort should be launched at DEMOCRAT failures NOW and for the next 2 years.

Economy - Destroyed by Democrats
Drug overdoses - Your loved ones are dying because of Democrats
War in Ukraine - Democrat waste of money
Daughter’s pushed aside - Democrats
Failing Schools - Democrats
Moral Decay - Democrats
Inflation - Democrats

MAKE being a DEMOCRAT an uncomfortable thing.

I think DeSantis has the message discipline and would have the donors(finances) to do it.

Walker will win the runoff. The Libertarian Canidate got about 2 percent.

Trump is running in '24. Desantis will get crushed if he tries to go against Trump.

You will be voting for Trump in Nov. ‘24.

Get used to the idea.

Where else are you going to go?

Absolutely Correct!

Or, as any sports head coach says to his team: “We win or lose TOGETHER, as a TEAM”.

If you want to brag about the number of goals you scored while losing the game, you are SHUNNED and SHAMED. And deservedly so.

The heavily Trump aligned candidates didn't do well. In many of the pairings the more conventional GOP candidate won their Statewide race, and the MAGA candidates lost.

New Hampshire is a perfect example. Bolduc got crushed, while Sununu did much better.

Bolduc was a very Trump aligned candidate. The Democrats pumped $3.5 Miliom into the primary so they could run against the MAGA guy that Trump liked. That was a good investment.

Oz was Trump's pick in the Penn primary, too. That didn't work.

In WA-3 Trump went after 5 term incumbent Jamie Herera Beutler, who voted for impeachment. She was successfully primaried by Trump's chosen replacement, Joe Kent. He is very MAGA. But he is losing and it appears the district will be a Dem pickup.

Trump endorsements are very helpful to winning GOP primaries. But Trumpian candidates don't do well outside of very red locations.

If we take back the House & Senate by a field goal instead of 3 touchdowns I’ll take it.

A win is still a win.

People around here are just like the libs. When they win, it’s a giant victory that gives them a mandate to go nuts. When they lose, it’s because of cheating by the other side. It’s a lost cause trying to give people data that goes against their narrative. No matter what you show them they will just scream “ELECTION FRAUD!” and dismiss your data.
