Only 14,849 Reps showed up to vote. Were the rest at the beach?

The city narrowly went for former Vice President Kamala Harris last year

Not as shocking as the headline makes you think

Remember, AOC won a seat in Congress by getting just 17000 votes in a blue district primary..

If we don’t do something about fraudulent ballots, illegal aliens on voter roles, ID’s to vote, etc, the GOP is going to lose every election here on out.

Not shocking but infuriating and depressing.

There are a lot of bad people around.

I would like to be one of the exceptions:
“Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.”
Genesis 6:9.

One interpretation I heard was Noah wasn’t really so terrifically saintly but in those evil days with so many rotten people, he was relatively good in comparison.

Yes...but it would also be nice if the Republican voters would actually show up and vote as well.

“ Mayor is ceremonial only and has no real power.”

Who has the power?

So one of the few Republican-led major cities flips. Another bad sign. The 2026 election is still a long way away and there is time to pull out of the doom loop, but the usual suspects need to snap out of denial. We are in trouble.

Trump will try to make the 2026 election all about himself. So will the democrats. Meanwhile, Republicans all over the country in battleground districts are looking for ways to stand up in town meetings and appeal to the swing voters who, right now, are flipping dem.

Going RINO and selling out the side is suicidal. But so is just swearing blood oaths to blindly follow the man on the white horse ... who is himself flipping on issues so fast it makes your head spin ... while demanding absolute, unquestioning obedience from everyone else on our team. You cannot survive in a town meeting when you do a 180 overnight and try to justify it by saying that your job is to blindly follow orders.

Miami has about half a million people. The Democrat "winner" got 36,589 votes.

Organization matters.

“Apathy will be the death of this country.”

The left fights harder for evil than the right fights for their very own freedom.
