If is had gone to bed earlier, I would have missed this one. Sometimes dupes serve a purpose depending on the time of day/night and frequency.

The Biden comparison is hogwash, since Hillary in the same county [Kent] got 50,000 less votes only 4 years earlier.

We'll see if the Cheatocrats get out the extra 40,000 "votes" they got in Kent for the 3rd in an off-year, with a lily-white socialista [and that inspiring name, Hillary!] running against an intelligent black Republican.

They'll be watching the mail ballot drop boxes, too. That'll crimp some styles.   winking face face with tears of

Biden won this district by 8.6%.

As we move into the teeth of a don’t call it a recession recession, how do you think he’s polling now? Better? I don’t think so!

Basement Biden got 50,000 more "votes" in Kent County than Hillary! got four years earlier.

She got 139,000, he got "188,000". And obamas flew out my butt.

Gonna be a little harder to stuff them drop boxes this fall, I reckon.   winking face

This district didn't exist in 2020. It was redistricted after the 2020 Census.

How could it be redistricted if the district didn't exist in the first place?

Given how awful the economy is, I doubt that.

Biden’s worst polling is among under-30 voters, but they still favor the Democrats by almost 3-1.

And the abortion issue will motivate them to vote (see Kansas tonight).

This district was newly created out of precincts that favored Biden.

Yep. Until this midterm, I have never once advocated voting for a Democrat. But the three House Republicans that impeached Trump must lose, even if it costs us those seats. A precedent must be set that if you betray us you will not be able to squirm out of consequences.

Will the winner be able to beat the democrat??

If the dems were funding the republican campaign I would guess they think not.

We need excessive margins to allow for the Romneyist/RINO defectors in all but name.

That’s OK if the district flips. It is more important to get rid of Meijer. The Rs need only 4 or 5 seats to flip the House and there are plenty of vulnerable D seats. Easy peasy.

Honestly. It means that if the district existed...in other words, you take all the precincts that are in the new district and add up how each precinct voted and just like magic, you know exactly how the district voted in 2020. All districts are redrawn every 10 years and how that district voted is recalculated.

They always find a way to try to stay relevant. Down here in Florida, I saw an ad for our favorite political whore, Charlie Crist. He just won’t go away. I hope your RINO stays mute…
