It may be as few as 220. At least four of our incumbents are losing: Loren Boebert, Yvette Herrell, Steve Chabot, Mayra Flores. maybe Calvert also

This is the 2nd red wave that failed to materialize.

This is the 2nd election with mail-in voting.

Our southern border is a national disgrace. I favor immigration, but not open borders. How did this country fall so far? Do we have to grant admission to anyone who feels like coming across our border?

Yeah, that’s the problem. The GOP is divided. Maybe hopelessly so. Look at Dems still going strong on the Trump-Russia nonsense, etc. For some it seems the GOP is now the party of Liz Cheney and defacto support for stolen elections. Then they think why bother? Very troubling results.

It’s so much easier for weak minded people to blame another person whom they’ve demonized. Exactly what the Dem/Communists want.
Understanding what is happening requires a true understanding of human nature. Humans are are a pretty pathetic lot when it comes to courage.

This morning, FOX radio said that 63 House seats were still undecided.

That seem like a lot.
