If Black voters and Latino voters would show up more strongly for the GOP than expected in the mid-terms, that would put the fear of God into Democrats. They have built their party on keeping those two groups on their plantation.
Yes it will. Then, it will be up to the GOP to prove that they deserved our support. The first test will be shortly after the election when the new leaders for both Chambers are nominated by the lame ducks.
It’s hilarious the spin they’re trying to put on things......”educated people support the Democrats - it’s only those backward uneducated rubes who support the Republicans.”
Hmmm....didn’t Trump carry White college grads in 2016? Why.....YES! He did!
It also says the Democrats do well with Blacks and Latinos. Suddenly all talk about education levels as compared to the national average disappears. Gosh, why is that?
I also notice talk of a “blue wave” has evaporated as has any talk of taking the Senate. Now all their hopes are pinned on taking the House. If they’re denied even that, I’ll laugh long and heartily.
Eastern WA is dark red.

Eastern WA is dark red.

Regarding Eastern Washington is dark red: I’m curious to see what will happen in the Cathy McMorris Rodgers race. I haven’t seen any polling, just lots of commercials on both sides and tons of Lisa Brown signs everywhere. It will be interesting to see how Spokane County votes, since CMR narrowly lost it in the primary.
The national ‘generic poll’ is worthless in a mid-term election. It blends and averages the answers from fanatically liberal coastal folk with the common sense of the ‘fly-over folk’. The spread the pollsters come up with is potentially true for a national election.

Just the same, get out and vote !
They call them “Yahoo” for a reason.
