Latest House results confirm 2018 wasn't a blue wave. It was a blue tsunami.

The final votes are being counted from the 2018 election. They confirm that the Democrats crushed Republicans.

Let's start in the seat count. Republican Rep. David Valadao of California's 21st District conceded on Thursday to Democrat T.J. Cox. Cox's victory combined with other election results means that Democrats have picked up a net gain of 40 seats.

As has oft been repeated, this is the largest Democratic House gain since 1974. It's a larger gain than Democrats had in the wave elections of both 1982 and 2006.

We can go back even further and see how unusual it is that Democrats picked up this many seats. If you go back all the way to first election of the post-World War II era (1946), there have only been three elections in which Democrats net gained more seats than they did in 2018. Put another way, this was the fourth best performance for Democrats in the 37 general House elections since President Donald Trump was born.

> Theft works, particularly with a GOP that won’t or can’t fight like the Democrats. <

Yep. The old-line Republicans see this as a see-saw. They are up for awhile, then the Democrats are up for a while. Back and forth, forever. And then everybody involved gets a nice pension

Maybe the old-line Democrats feel pretty much the same way. But the “progressives” want it all, permanently. And since the GOP won’t fight back, the progressives are going to get it all, permanently.

The Democrats will be “finding “ votes until 2020.

They got this from Ryan allowing 40 some Reps to resign or not run again. Timing was everything. California was lost to new rules allowing absentee ballots to be collected by anyone vs. a family member.

Early voting, provisional ballots, ballots not completed, allowing folks to fill in the blanks(like Florida), asbsentee changes, etc. Also contributed.

Repubs didn’t even fight or challenge the ballots.

It wasn’t so much of a win for the Dems as it was the Repukes giving up. Once again.

They are the perennial punching bags.

The time has come to replace the feckless GOP with a real party that will represent conservatives.

Image result for Obama lost 63 house seats in midterm election meme picture

And that was even with massive amounts of money spent & vote harvesting, both that stand as unprecedented.

Or open and active collaborators like Paul Ryan, an NRCC who hires Den operatives crowdstrike and gets hacked, and a drink in *Romney* in charge of the RNC.

The damned GOPe: "Better to serve in Hell rather than to reign in Heaven."

That graphic is incorrect, is it not? We lost 41 seats last month, not 26.

There is tons of evidence that has been gathered on the massive voter fraud which is going to come out with all of the other high crimes which have been committed. We have been seeing reports coming up. The Rats have been stung royally like they have in a few areas.

add ‘em all up and it comes down to something around 55,000 votes that the R’s need to flip back in 2020. Much easier task.

“It was massive Democrat vote fraud.”

Bingo. It is the only way they can win, and the only way they can keep power.

2020 will be a Presidential election also which
increases the interest and potential voter turnout.

As FReeper KNARF insightfully posted: I haven’t seen “the Democrat party” as a political arm in a long time.
All we’ve been subjected to is gauntlet after gauntlet thrown down.......
Democrats are an aggressive army challenging a peaceful nation....a nation they despise.

California Democrats calculatedly rewrote the voting rules for ballot harvesting in their favor thus routing many Republicans of long-standing.
Ballot harvesting is rampant vote fraud. Vote harvesters can sign up people to vote absentee, then get them to sign their ballots .......whether marked or not.

Ruthless Democrats invade peaceful people residing in: rest homes, hospitals, homeless shelters, tent cities, labor camps, prisons, jails, high schools, colleges, etc,

The conniving vote harvester "assists" the voter in marking the ballot.....more likely the Democrat fills it in, and connives to get the signature. (hat tip Jim Robinson)

NOTE ballot harvesting has always been illegal and is banned in many states.

==========================================

Vote-hungry Democrats are scary----an aggressive army challenging a peaceful nation....a nation they despise.

Democrats abandoned their role in the two-party system of checks and balances.
Democrats have morphed into an invading army......trailed by a bunch of camp followers.

==========================

These vote-snatching Democrats’ are at their worst when they're losing.

When Republicans lose they graciously concede and the race is over.

When predatory Democrats lose, they mobilize the heavy artillery —— the heavy duty voter-fraud tanks-— they roll over anyone standing in their way until their stinking rumps are in the seat.

The practice of ballot harvesting must be curtailed.
