In what could be an indicator of things to come in the 2022 mid-term election, the GOP flipped a state senate seat in a Connecticut special election on Tuesday night – the first flip for either party in 2021.

The Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC) announced in an email:

State Republicans tonight delivered the first flip of a state legislative seat in a special election by either party in 2021, as Republican Ryan Fazio defeated liberal Democrat Alex Gevanter in Connecticut’s state Senate District 36 – a district Joe Biden won by more than 25% in 2020.

Does it really matter anymore?

[Mr. K]

Joe biden didn’t win sh*t

and the people who comitted the fraud MAY BE afraid to do it again

Maybe

hopefully

If the Sleeping Giant that has been the American people is finally waking up, then yes - it means everything. But the Stupid Party remains so until they prove that they can earn and USE gov’t power to save the American people.

And, of course, I wonder if Trump won that good bit more in even that state (probably not enough to turn that state red) if you were to take out the fraud that probably has happened there for years and years. Even though, as per what others here mention, that New Yorkers have basically turned that state into a Democrat sh$^hole.

I don’t know how extensive and how much planning went into 2020 election cycle. My suspicion is that it was just enough to get Biden elected, but too complicated to be continually repeated without risking reverse election gamesmanship from GOP.

[Vigilanteman]

Does this mean there is an actual limit on stupid for big urban northeast districts? Or is the Republican just another Lowell Weicker type?

For those of you who don't remember that j@ck@$$, let's just say that Joe Liebermann represented a considerable improvement.

They should always put quotes around “won” when speaking of the 2020 Presidential election. I move that it should be in the AP style guide.

[Right Brother]

The US is sinking fast and the republicans are AWOL. So disgusting.

[Chigger42]

The false assumption is Trump lost by 25 points. While I love to see the flip, no way this big of a turnaround in less than a year especially in this liberal state.

Sleeping Giant Park is in Hamden (near New Haven, Black Elk's old home [R.I.P.]). The election was in Fairfield County [Ann Coulter's area].

While I love to see the flip, no way this big of a turnaround in less than a year especially in this liberal state.

Fairfield County is RINO central. Many there would have no use for Trump but are fine with a Romney-type. I am waiting on a trusted CT resource for solid info on Farley.

Where are the percentages?

[Gritty]

They must have used hand counted ballots instead of Dominion machines.

[Deplorable American1776]

I’m glad it flipped. The district is the town of Greenwich (more Independent voters), the northern part of Stamford (Democrat) and the western part of New Canaan (Republican). It is one of the richest area in the nation.

[SamAdams76]

I live in this area and I’m glad it flipped too!
