GOP 'within spitting distance' of taking control of House Which faction of Democrat Party 'deserves lion's share of the blame?'(nanzi pic)

Democratic joy at defeating Donald Trump was partially dulled by the simultaneous diminishment of the party’s House majority. As of Sunday at least 11 Democratic-held House seats have been lost to Republicans (while Democrats have flipped three others). That’s the biggest net loss in a presidential election year by the winning presidential candidate’s party in 60 years.

The unexpected divergence in the two results sparked a round of reciprocal recriminations between the House Democratic caucus’ moderate and left-wing factions. Moderates blamed the “defund the police” sloganeering and “socialist” branding from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her supporters, which Republicans deployed in swing district attack ads. Ocasio-Cortez shot back by claiming moderate incumbents ran musty campaigns with minimal investment in digital media.

HUH? WTH? Didn't the 'media' already 'declare' the winners and losers in all these races? Why are "new" outcomes being posted. Ohhhhhh, I see. Some vote counting is better and more valid than other vote counting. Got it.

Yet another statistical anomaly in the election of Biden. Along with a mountain of other statistical anomalies. All of which point to a massive voter fraud operation.

As of last Sunday, at least 11 Democratic-held House seats were lost to Republicans (Dems flipped three others).
That’s the biggest net loss in a presidential election year by the winning candidate’s party in 60 years.

After smug House Dems predicted big gains, they suffered the loss of at least 11 sitting members w/ several more expected.
Democrats failed to knock off even a single Republican incumbent - virtually unthinkable heading into the Nov. 3 election.

The dismal results have sparked Democrats' eternal bickering and an internal reckoning, featuring:
<><> moderates blaming liberals for botching the party’s message;
<><> liberals pushing back in defense of efforts to energize the progressive base;
<><> Democrat lawmakers of all political stripes growing increasingly frustrated,
<><> Democrat' post-election finger-pointing has spilled into public view.

We’re not done counting yet.

If Sydney Powell is successful, I suspect the Democrats will lose dozens of seats.

How will Pelosi loosen up the house? Or do you mean lose?

BS. Dems don’t care if they won by 1 seat or 100 seats. They have the power, and they are going to ram it down our throats.

This is silliness. It’s projecting GOP sensibilities onto Dems.

Sydney Powell suggested that any Republican that lost by less than 6%, should sue over the results or join a lawsuit in that state.

The usual introspection from these losers. Rather than contemplating that their ideas are stupid and unpopular, the answer for people like AOC is to push their ideas even harder

Dems House losses are the biggest net loss in a presidential election year by the winning presidential candidate’s party in 60 years.
Yet another anomaly in Biden's election, w/ a mountain of statistical anomalies pointing to Democrats' massive voter fraud operation.

Sidney Powell begins to release the Kraken…
SIDNEY POWELL TO MARK STEYN : “I’ve got a firsthand witness... an affidavit from a witness present at the
creation of the crooked system for the specific purpose of falsifying election results for Hugo Chavez, and then Maduro.
The Smartmatic and Dominion systems built for changing the results of elections were exported all over Latin America."

"The witness saw similar things happening here, particularly when things looked bad for Biden."

"At the time, the states inexplicably stopped counting votes."

"It’s because they had to go in and do a separate reset on the machines to have them come out for Biden.”

Mark Steyn: “And you have evidence of this? Witnesses to this?”

Sidney Powell: “I do, indeed.”

Just a few wise words for Democrat moderates in the House...Switch parties and become Republicans right now!!! It is as simple as that!!! I am simply saying you good folks do not want to remain being a Democrat...for many obvious good reasons!!!

Things are not gonna end well for the entire Democrat Party!!! The 75,000,000 Americans that legally voted for POTUS, Donald J. Trump to be re-elected are enough reason for you all to bid goodbye to the the Democrat, Socialist, Communist Party!!! Take heed...Moderate Democrats!!!

Make Republican, Kevin MacCarthy, Speaker of the House!!!

If state elections are thrown out for fraud, down ballot elections will need a “do over”. With the fraud vote knocked out, I think the Repubs might end up with the House ... ok, so being optimistic here.

What was the total (US wide) House vote - D vs R?
With gerrymandering, this might be a more significant metric

12 flip races have been called
Another 8-10 are still “ counting” but GOP ahead in half of them, though some with slim margins
Watch uncalled races in CA and NY

AOC made a reference to losing the House yesterday. Maybe she knows something.

On second thought... that’s not possible.
