John James wins Michigan's 10the congressional seat, beating Carl Marlinga
Fantastic news!
We did, too.
Correct.
Just saw TWO additional seats that flipped from D to R..one in Iowa and just now another one in Arizona..so tell me again how this was not a a red wave, yes not a massive one but it was a red wave
Iraq War vet, businessman John James wins Michigan Senate seat
Good to see — great candidate!
Mainly there is disappointment due to lofty expectations. After pumping a massive red wave for weeks, the early Florida results seemed to confirm this idea. If the expectation going in was we were screwed came out with at least the House flipped, we would have been excited.
I get it..its like if some betting site had the Lakers winning a game by 30 points and we won instead by 2, yeah we won but it doesnt feel like we did..but if we end up taking the House AND Senate, I dont give a damn by how much to me its a fabulous day
Michigan Republicans had a terrible message game and were out spent.
Democrats running on “they will take your abortions away” were able to gain enough votes from young women, beta males.
The youth want to have as much sex as possible without any consequences and you had to have a better counter message than, “that’s not the issue.”
“You are killing innocent children” Might have worked, it might have not.
Glad to hear it… he’s a good man.
Great to see James get the victory he deserves.
That’s great, it means he overcame the instituted MI cheat.
Too much cheat to overcome in 2018 when he ran for MI Senate seat. That’s the race I would have liked to see him win, but he’s young, he’ll he a US Senator.

@DecisionDeskHQ
Decision Desk HQ projects George Santos (R) wins election to the U.S. House in New York’s 3rd Congressional District.
D to R Flip.
so yeah thats ANOTHER FLIP
There is something to be said for persistance and not giving up.
So happy!
...without serious election reform(most certainly curtailed by democrats winning "protect fraud" propositions)...good luck taking it back.
Yes!!!! Victory at long last!! 👍👍
Yes, this news really brightened my day 😊
For 2024, the Rs should organize “Fortify the Election” campaign just to tick off the “Progressives”.
