OK. The Democrats stole the presidency. They're doing everything possible to steal the Senate. But they were apparently confident that they would win the House without tomfoolery as it appears from this graphic:
https://edition.cnn.com/election/2020/results/house
that the GOP will fall just five House votes short of a majority. Although CNN shows a 222-209 margin, the four "undecided seats are all either won or will be won by Republicans so it's really 222-213. 218 is needed to have a majority.
What might it take to get five Democrats to switch parties? Remember Jeff Van Drew (NJ) switched sides and still won re-election. Had she run again and won, I could see Tulsi Gabbard (HI) as a potential party switch after the way she was mistreated.
How much might it take to get five to switch? Promise them committee seats in the new House? Promise them a place among committee chairmanships? Promise them passage of a favorite piece of legislation?
Surely some of them won in districts where Trump won handily. Maybe we could offer them a Trump rally when they run for re-election.
As a Republican, the media sees you as a hero when you disagree with party leadership. As a Democrat, you are gagged and shunned.
As a last resort, perhaps some campaign cash can be transacted.

If Republicans took the House...what would they do with it???
Shocking to hear that you think that stealing an election is just “tomfoolery.” Maybe you should go move to Bolivia, Venezuela, or some other country where “tomfoolery” is routine and typical.
“If they’re not corrupt when they get elected they soon will be. The Swamp is a very corrosive environment and its political machinery quickly turns good people into ‘pliable’ ones.”
geez, sounds like prison:
If they’re not a crimal when they get inside the penitentiary they soon will be. Prison is a very corrosive environment and its political machinery quickly turns good people into ‘pliable’ ones.
I’m wondering how long before Manchin (WV) in the Senate flips to GOP. Trump won WV with 68% of the vote. The other Republican WV Senator (Capito) won with over 70%. All 3 Republican House Representatives won their races with over 60%.
The lefties have this covered. Brindisi (NY-22) now has a 13 vote lead after a judge handed him votes, despite trailing Claudia Tenney (R) by 28,000 after the election.
Expect a few more last minute legal decisions to flip tight districts in blue states. That happened big time in 2018.
She occasionally makes sense, but she's has typical leftist kook positions on gun prohibition, climate, socialized medicine, high taxes, open borders / amnesty, LGBTQWXYZ+, free college, etc.
IOW, a typical democrat with a mask of sanity.
As I understand it, she reversed Brindisi’s “lead” bc Herkimer County found a miscalculation in Tenney’s favor giving her back a 12 vote lead which they will now have to steal.
So we’re supposed to believe that buying one with 80 million votes but the Republicans win the house. It’s not believable.
The New York State Congressional race in the 22nd District is still undecided.
“Also there is the lightning bolt scenario.”
Is this what we’ve been reduced to, lol?
It shows there was a deal done.
R’s get most of the house, senate is a draw and the dead guy walking gets the Presidency.
I think the RINOs and the Rat gangsters have this all parceled out. That’s why Kemp, Ducey, MI legislature are all rolling over. They’ve been told, this is what’s going down.
Appears you are right about the correction. Yet still quite a few disputed ballots are awaiting judgment so I’m not gonna feel comfortable here until it’s final.
House vacancies are filled only by special election.
“R’s get most of the house, senate is a draw and the dead guy walking gets the Presidency.”
And Barr blesses it with a “no fraud to see here” blessing.
“...US House members in state houses controlled by the GOP and are replaced by that legislative body”
Its a gilded prison, but a prison nonetheless because once they turn you you’re a captive to their demands.
There’s a well know maxim on Capitol Hill: “To get along go along”.
Going against the grain is not without consequences in the DC Swamp.
“...If Republicans took the House...what would they do with it???...”
Probably the same thing they did the last time they had it: NOTHING.
They’re like a dog chasing a car: IF they caught it, they wouldn’t know what to do with it.
“...It shows there was a deal done.
R’s get most of the house, senate is a draw and the dead guy walking gets the Presidency.

Yep....sure looks like it. Looks like even Barr was in it.
When an entity totally controls the votes and the AG, deals like this can be easily made. The UniParty likely orchestrated this months ago with the obama shadow government.
So now what we’re getting with Chairman Jao’s appointments, is a UniParty/Obama 3rd term thru their shadow government...
There ought to be a law.....
Trump should form the America First party and let the GOPe/RINO UniParty members twist in the wind by sucking all of the conservatives out of it.
Manchin is a leftist who voted for the coup d’état “impeachment.” He can eff himself.
