Cheat even more. No one will really punish them for it. Certainly not those directing and paying for the voter fraud.

Kinda disappointed Shellenberger didn’t have a better showing. I thought he’d have a chance to beat the D

LOL. What blowout? They recalled a commie and will likely elect a new commie at the next election. Meanwhile, all CA has had is a primary election Come talk to me Thanksgiving and we will see how many GOP have been elected in Leftist one party state CA.

The California electorate is not going to elect any GOP. Someone will say “abortion”, or “racism”, or “trans rights”, or “reasonable gun control”, and it will be all commies down the ticket elected to statewide office.

Nothing is going to change. Not until CA is near or beyond collapse.

I believe the author is talking about Terry McAuliffe in Virginia.

There’s still a slim chance Democrats could revive some of the BBB elements this year, such as green energy investments, with modest tax hikes to pay for those and to also help reduce yawning budget deficits.

"Modest tax hikes" - oh yes, this would be an excellent time for the Dems to hike taxes. Pleasepleaseplease.

What is happening in Hong Kong right now is what the Democrat Party plans for America.

I was wondering about Shellenberger but I didn’t think he was the same guy who wrote the book Apocalypse Never. It said homeless advocate so I voted for someone else. I voted for Shawn somebody because he was military. I admit to not doing my homework.

Yes you’re right, but there certainly were some bright spots
in California yesterday.

The Communists didn’t get to this point over night either.

It all starts with coalitions going south. People are
getting fed up with the Leftist ideoligical policies.

Who thought that in 2022 there would be a pretty good
showing of Conservative Black men taking their thoughts
on the road, and having an impact?

I see this as the beginning of a Black migration that I
believe is being undervalued at this point.

One of many Democratic concerns is that voters will show up in November with little memory of their 2021 rescue plan or the bipartisan infrastructure bill Biden signed, and instead rate the Democratic party as a fractured mess that can't get anything done.

And Slim just left town.

I’d think more like Cuba or NK or the “The Great Leap Forward” in China.

The title can only mean the Democrats blew out the Republicans, otherwise it makes no sense at all.

If primary turnout means anything, Trump-hating Republican David Valadao will be defeated in November. The bad news is that he’ll be replaced by a Democrat. Young Kim (incumbent Republican) got only 34% in District 40 though all Republicans combined to take 60% of the vote which means — “ballot harvesting” aside — she should be OK in November.

Long-time incumbent Republican Ken Calvert got only 43.6%. He’s probably in big trouble in November. His district is allegedly R+4 yet Democrats got more votes than Republicans as the numbers stand now.

Michelle Steel and Mike Garcia aren’t safe either, and never were. Steel probably did a little better than expected yesterday, if these numbers hold up once the Democrats finally stop “harvesting” by mid-July; but this is just a primary — California Democrats save the really dirty stuff for November.

“I see this as the beginning of a Black migration that I

That sounds like more Blexit BS to me. Like conservatives voting GOP, too damn stupid to realize there was nothing left to lose years ago. We’ve heard the very same pipe dream election after election. It’s not happening.

I can only tell you what I am seeing in social media. I am
observing a lot more Black Conservatism than I used to. Is
it a total flip? Of course not. I will tell you that what
seems like a small amount of change to us, is a very big
deal to the Democrats.

Just now I tried to find some really good figures to address
this issue with you. I couldn’t.

It’s a pain in the ass to try to find something from various
outlets that has been assessed the same way.

I fund some that address eligible voter turnout, better
than who they voted for.

Another variable is this. If enough votes were manufactured
on election day or via the process, how does that serve us
in doing an accurate evaluation post election?

The data that I could find was spotty at best.

Some folks may not think of this, but the tinkering of the
election process in 2020, was probably as much about hiding
the migration of certain groups over to Trump, as much as
overturning the actual vote.

The Leftists are loathe to let it get out there, that an
extra 5% of a demographic group voted for Trump this time
around.

I can’t evaluate what the component of falsified votes was
in 2020? Were most of them for Blacks? Were a significant
enough portion of them from Blacks and Latino groups, enough
to skew the possibility of any real meaning coming from a
careful study on the topic?

Guys like the Hodge Twins are making 20-30 stop sweeps
through the nation. I honestly don’t know if they are
only finding Whites at their events. They may be. Those
two Black sisters who became very popular during the
2016 Trump campaign, make large tours also.

Are these and other Black public figures helping us in
any tangible way? I tend to think so. I’m also seeing
a contingent of lesser names echoing their opinions and
coming away with a pretty decent slant on things.

I could not find something to back up my premise. To be
honest it seemed like you could be closer to the truth,
but the dynamics in play about 2020, don’t lead me to
think the data I’m seeing from the Leftist media is
without some tinkering included.

We used to say we’d have to wait until the election to
see what the real figures were. For right now, that
dynamic is out the window as well.

Again, 2016,18,20 all over again. Sometimes people are just too stupid to break through the lies and propaganda until it’s too late. Look at me. I voted for Mitch McConnell in every general election. Blacks, as a race, are as politically stupid as I was for fifty years. They still have no clue.

I understand that dynamic.

It was during the mid to late 1990s that I realized how
corrupt our own side was.

It was hard coming to terms with.
