Any that don’t watch TV. It’s been total saturation.

Just consider though what will become of MAGA if the GOP loses the House come November. Trumps last two years will be spent fighting impeachments rather than his agenda.

And a Republican Senate might not have his back this time, seeing an opportunity to chuck Trump to the curb and let Vance run as the incumbent.

Did anyone here the talk radio shows discussing this race? I only got to listen to a little bit but it was not discussed during the times I was listening or watching - on RAV the show that was on they were interviewing a candidate running against Ilhan Omar - no mention of this race. If it was mentioned, it must have been scant discussion vs. any urgency.

There was a time where a single race like this would have been the major discussion of not only the day of the election, but the weeks and days leading up to said election, on conservative media.

Why are politically savvy shows and politically savvy audiences seemingly so indifferent about, well, major political events such as *elections* anymore?

It’s irrelevant to the Left and their base of voters.

I mean, they elected a guy in Virginia to be their chief law enforcement officer who wanted political opponents and their children to be assassinated.

Over half of Montgomery County is now in. It’s the biggest county in the district, solidly Republican. Green won it by nearly 20 points in 2024.

Nobody in their right mind expected Van Epps to do nearly as well as Green.

Van Epps is currently up in Montgomery by.... 3 points.

My mistake.

Van Epps is DOWN BY 3 in solid-red Montgomery.
