Growing Evidence Against a Republican Wave
NYTimes ^ | 08/24/2022 | Nate Cohn

Posted on 08/25/2022 9:01:21 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

At the beginning of this year’s midterm campaign, analysts and political operatives had every reason to expect a strong Republican showing this November. President Biden’s approval rating was in the low 40s, and the president’s party has a long history of struggling in midterm elections.

But as the start of the general election campaign nears, it’s becoming increasingly hard to find any concrete signs of Republican strength.

Tuesday’s strong Democratic showing in a special congressional election in New York’s 19th District is only the latest example. On paper, this classic battleground district in the Hudson Valley and Catskills is exactly where the Republicans would be expected to flip a seat in a so-called wave election. But the Democrat Pat Ryan prevailed over a strong Republican nominee, Marc Molinaro, by around two percentage points, outperforming Mr. Biden’s narrow win in the district two years ago.

Wake me up when something like this happens in anything other than a deep blue state

Yeah, all the democrats at the NY Times have decided there will be no Republican wave - so a newspaper article is written to prove the point!

I agree. Too many Chicken Littles on this site, screaming about a blue wave and even the slightest criticism of Putin will get you accused of wanting nuclear war with Russia.

Hmmm...let’s see now:

Inflation at 9% (first time since The Peanut Farmer)
Grocery bills up 30%
Gasoline up 100%
Heating bills expected to be up 40%
Millions of wetbacks roaming our cities
Violent crime up 30%

Am I missing anything?

Are we going to blame every election loss from here to eternity on voter fraud?

Jeez, if we haven't gotten a handle on this by now, we don't deserve to win.

Ignore this crap and get out and vote Republican.

If your rep is a RINO, that’s just too bad. Vote for him, anyway.

The Dems are all deranged, hate-filled lunatics and must be kept from the reins of power.

Problems for this opinion:
1. Russia is going to start trying AZOV members for human rights violations - people might be shocked they were supporting nazis.
2. CPI is probably going up.
3. People are going to be upset about the debt forgiveness.
4. DJIA looks like it has peaked and is going down.
5. Winter is coming and energy rates will go up.

Getting ahead of the big steal coming. The Republicans will not investigate coming voter fraud because Biden was ahead the entire time!

John Fetterman’s doctor probably told him no more weed after the stroke.

Fetterman must have given his bong to the New York Times.

Their growing evidence is New York’s 19th District. Only one race.

This is just the narrative for another steal in 2022. Nothing was done about 2020, so that’s where we are.

Marc Molinaro is a horrible candidate, he doesn’t know how to fight or even run a campaign.

They are just preparing us for their use of the election system they took over in 2020. Will continue to be used until no more GOP is elected anywhere. Aim is a one party state with no dissent allowable or allowed.
