We Hear About ALL ELECTIONS EXCEPT ONE....WHY?
27 Oct 18 | hapnHAL

Posted on 10/27/2018 8:51:02 PM PDT by hapnHal

Elections are less than 9 days away. We hear about "ALL" the races except one..... WHY? President Trump is campaigning all over the country except xxxxxx? Why? In June President Trump made us a promise. What was it? Freepers its time for us to wake up and start ring the bells. Most, I guess, consider California election races a lost cause and California is a BLUE SWAMP. There is no changing it. California has plenty of Illegal registered voters and plenty of buses to transport them from polling place to polling place. But, my experience shows me something different. California is changing from blue to RED. People are fed up and are sick of California Democrat politics. Changes must be made before California falls into the ocean. People are leaving in droves. escaping high taxes, high rents, immigration problems, homeless, etc. For a better and more affordable California voters can change the landscape by electing state and local leaders who will fight for change. Recommended voter guide... Governor John Cox Controller Konstantinos Roditis Sec. of State Mark Meuser Treasurer Greg Conlon Attorney Gen Steven Bailey US Rep 24th Justin Fareed CA Assy 24th Jordan Cunningham Propositions Yes on 5 and 6 No on all other props

I’d love to see Cox win in California...

For you fingers to God.

One poll had him leading. I know, polls are unreliable. And one is better than none.

There were large groups of people from California at Trump’s inauguration. Some were even teachers. I was shocked.

"All the FL polls show a dead heat or Gillam is slightly ahead"

Has it occurred to you, that you might have more credibility on this subject if you were to spell the guy's name correctly?

It's "Gillum", not "Gillam".

Also, how do you reconcile your statement in post number twelve about how many Freepers you respect, ("You're one of the few FReepers I respect...") with your apparent belief that you can effect change in the Florida election by posting stuff here, to be read mostly by people you have no respect for?

First, Trump is not going to campaign for anyone who will lose an election and that includes most any pubbie in Cali. It’s not worth his effort and time.
__________

Not to mention the rioting which would occur.
By the way, what is the second reason? :-)

Really? Does that area have a lot of independents who could be swayed?

I fiercely disagree. His California stuff was an impression, a conjecture based on what he had seen and felt—not a direct word from The Lord. I don’t know of a single thing he got as a clear word from The Lord that was false. Some things are still in the future.

Yea. I think a lot of conservative CA voters keep a low profile.

Two VA polling outfits did polling in August and September. Quinipiac did polling in may...the others in February june and July. All were undersampling Republicans by 10 points and there were many refusing to give their party affiliations. The Libertarian in one poll was at 4 per cent.

One major Newspaper was saying that while Kaine was ahead,he was still running like an underdog...I believe it. He knows about the undersampling going on in all of the Virgina Universities’ polling outfits and about the Kavanaugh affect and he also knows how Virginians still voted just enough to keep the state assembly in the Republicans column.(I live in the Richmond area) What Kaine has to worry about is if Virginians across the state vote in the same patterns that allowed the assembly to stay in Republican hands then he could still lose in a squeaker since the Senate race is an all over state election. Stewart will do better than expected...with most of the state polls from September to back in May showing 15 to 25 percent respondant refusing to state a candidate preference is very telling. There has nothing been done recently by any national polls so the RCP is still skewed from polls from late last February to mid September.

My Prediction...Kaine by 5 with 4 percent of the vote total going to the Libertarian candidate. Stewart has a very strong “gumba” following that might just show up and surprise folks. Powhatan County tends to vote in percentages way beyond others like it for example and I see a lot of Stewart signs up in Midlothian/Chesterfield...my neighbor for example.

Kaine is working it because he realizes the college student pollsters can be a bit over zealous and that Virginia still voted to keep the assembly still Republican.

Californian here too. I’d go to a rally with Cox and Trump if I had to travel the length of this very large state to do so. Heck, I’d go to a just Cox rally, but I never hear a peep about any appearances.

Long, long ago I was a Democrat. Left the party due to the hypocrisy of the Clinton Administration and got to appreciate conservative thought. The right has proven itself far more rational and has a healthy respect for the Constitution. I may be registered Independent, but I vote Republican. The latter does not always mean the candidate is good. Look at Conan the Barbarian’s tenure. Ugh. I need to reregister as a Republican so I can vote in the primaries.

Sent my ballot in last week. I pray nothing funny was done with it and my vote counted. I know 2 lefties (one is part Hispanic) who are voting for Cox just because they think Newsome’s stance on illegals would be bad for the state. Hah! As if we don’t have problems already with our admitted 3rd world slums in LA and San Francisco, as well as smaller cities and towns overrun with gangs like MS13.

I have a dream to Make California Great Again!

Loved your response. I was wondering if anyone was going to catch I had only listed one reason. The second reason is he could have a rally for several of the congressmen who are in close races in Cali; however, Cali being what it is, it would probably backfire and energize the dems to go to the polls and so why go?

Cali hates being ignored, so it's all good.

If that is the case, that it is only conjecture, why open his mouth? Hardly anything he says comes true. Remember those military tribunals and arrests - they were supposed to start this past February. Remember Obama’s third term? He tries to explain it all away. I could go on and on.

You can't compare the state house elections with a statewide campaign. They are completely different. Dynamics are different involving completely different candidates. The truth is, the Republicans were massacred last year - only keeping control of the House with a coin toss. The pubbies had no clue they were on the cusp of losing the House.

Some thoughts to sober you: 1 out of 4 votes come from Northern Virginia where I am at. It's wonderful that Lee county votes 80% republican, but hardly anyone lives there. Both Arlington and Alexandria routinely vote 70 to 80% dems, then you add in Prince William, Loudoun and the big one Fairfax County (12.5% of all votes in the state are from from Fairfax), and you have a situation where the rest of the state needs to make up for a huge democrat lead from this area and it is almost impossible to do. The second largest number of votes come from Tidewater and at best it is now only about 50/50. Va Beach used to be a republican stronghold, but is no longer. The pubbies might eke out a 1 or 2% win in the city, but it is not close to what is needed. Obama won in Va. Beach during one of his elections.

So that leaves your area, the Richmond area which is still hanging in there, but there are not enough voters in your area to offset Northern Va. There are other areas, such as Rockingham county, surrounding Harrisonburg that are strongly republican - the Shenandoah Valley is a treasure trove for the pubbies, but again not enough voters.

The rule of thumb used to be if the Republican won 40% of the vote in Fairfax County, that would be enough for the candidate to win statewide. That is no longer true. I think Stewart gets 33% of the vote in Fairfax on election day.

I acknowledge there have been few polls in this race, but that is because it is not considered competitive. Honestly, I don't think I have seen one Kaine yard sign at all up here, but I'm guessing it's because voters assume he will win.

I hope you are right, but this state is not the same as it was 20 years ago. It is changing everyday to more blue.

The red tide and green algae has been killing tourism, the fishing industry and the beaches here in SW Florida for well over a year now. Neither Scott nor DeSantis showed up down here until August. The rats have been hammering both of them in vicious ads. They cant afford to lose red red conservative Lee County.

I guess Californians have something to look forward for...

Gavin Newsom wants your vote for Governor
.
Gavin’s plan to restore California to greatness includes

* Keeping the Gas Tax
* Don’t build the Border Wall. Let Immigrants in to find jobs that others don’t want to do.
* Support the billion dollar High Speed Rail. We need this
* Keep the Sanctuary State status going
* Push for LGBTQ rights
* Open the floodgate for polygamy and bestiality.

Florida Early voting results. It’s close enough for the Dems to steal, so far.

Hi md

I know my post was very negative concerning Stewart's chances next Tuesday, so I thought I would copy and paste what I just read in the theconservativetreehouse.com site:

A Annie Ok says: October 31, 2018 at 3:16 pm

I have been making calls to Virginia Beach to get people to the precincts to represent Corey Stewart (running against Tim Kaine.) This just in from a member of Corey Stewart’s paid staff: “This race is going to be very, very much closer than the media is predicting, according to our internal polling. So every big and little effort counts!” Also, heard through the same grapevine that Trump may be in Virginia Beach to boost Corey Stewart this Monday.

So, I may be happily wrong and I hope I am and could it be possible? We'll find out soon.
