Or perhaps they just perfected the art of making people stupid.
Pretty much. I fully expect a nationwide slaughter in 2024.
These are targeted races in an off season year.
However, the number one thing that is true right now is Republicans didn’t spend well in this election compared to what was thrown at us.
Also, just like in Michigan there was heavy tech censorship, throttling being done you can gaurantee it.
2020 proved it.
Either someone does something to dramatically change things or they will steal every election they want forever.
I think the problem lies with you. I think you are perhaps unwilling, if not actually unable, to understand that the country you think you live in no longer exists.
Many such cases.
Just who the hell is “Ralph Davis” in your by-line?
Sad, but true. I wish I could say they’re stupid, but they’re not. They play Chess. The other side plays Checkers.
If every lost election after 2016 is due to vote fraud, then we’re just pathetic and hopeless.
What they’ve done with early voting is mastered the art of getting their low propensity voters to mail in a ballot on the way to the unemployment office. The GOP will have it’s night but the problem is they have no answer for the abortion question now and that’s on the GOP.
Between the immigrant vote, the young skulls full of mush vote and the crazy a$$ liberal vote, rational traditional voters (e.g. Republicans) are vastly outnumbered, and it will only get worse from here.
One does not “master” a criminal act.
The old white Republican guy is ahead with 43% to 37%, with 15 other candidates siphoning off the rest. Gilbert Garcia and Jack Christie both have about 10,500 votes each (7%), so the race is going to a run-off.
The question now is can Sheila Jackson Lee crank up the Democrat machine in Houston to overcome a 6% deficit by scooping up all the other votes?
Even if she gets the "Garcia" vote and John Whitmire gets the "Christie" vote, she is still behind by 6%.
They will have to find new votes in the December runoff, that is, people who didn't vote in this election who will be dragged out for Her Majesty in the runoff election.

I tend to agree with you. The combination of gathering low-propensity (thank you post #14) voters and maybe not even giving them money any more, but convincing them that “...there is this much easier way of voting, just fill out this ballot and I will return it for you”.
And on the backside they build up this campaign that you are the offspring of Satan if you even suggest the idea that there is or could be any fraud, and if there is, it’s all on the GOP side.
so that means we don’t need to vote anymore ...
MAGA needs to find out HOW they do it.
Every election that took place today needs to be investigated.
The Dems having such good results, right when they need them, is suspicious.
I think constant whining about voter fraud is the lament of the loser who has run out of ideas.
They are called insulated urban citadels of fraud.
I think the Democrats won in 2020 through ballot harvesting, and through better and smarter campaign spending. I think that’s also what got Beshear across the finish line tonight (along with the power of incumbency). None of this is anything the Republicans can’t fight back against - whether the RNC will ever become smart enough to do it is an open question.
I think 2022 made this clear. every reason to expect ruling party to get drubbed, but they didn’t, except in florida, where they got very badly beaten (gop even won dade county for gov).
2020 was sloppy, forcing late-night ‘vote-count-stops’ etc. that won’t happen again.
