(CNN)As House Democrats prepare to reelect their entire leadership team this week, one thing has come into clear focus 14 days removed from the 2020 election: They got beat -- badly.
While much of the focus in the days immediately after November 3 fell on whether Joe Biden had beaten Donald Trump (he had) and whether Democrats would win back the Senate majority (they haven't -- yet), the last few days have been filled with close House races (finally) being projected. And those projections reveal just how poorly House Democrats did.
With just a handful of races still uncalled at this point, Republicans have gained nine seats -- having won 12 Democratic-held districts and lost just three of their own. And those numbers don't even tell the full story, given that two of the three seats Republicans lost were the direct result of a redrawing of North Carolina's congressional districts that reworked the map in ways that were decidedly unfavorable to the GOP. Subtract those two seats, which neither party spent any money in or seriously contested, and you are down to a single competitive seat that went from red to blue: The suburban Atlanta 7th District.
As David Wasserman, the House editor at the Cook Political Report, a non-partisan campaign tip sheet, noted on Twitter on Monday:
"It's been almost two weeks since Election Day, and Democrats still haven't won a *single one* of the 27 House races in @CookPolitical's Toss Up column."
That's an incredible stat -- especially when you consider that the Democratic presidential nominee [allegedly] won 306 electoral votes ...

Yep
It was a BIG RED WAVE
Who knows who else than PedoJoe benefitted from the MASSIVE FRAUD
Bastards
That's an incredible stat -- especially when you consider that the Democratic presidential nominee won 306 electoral votes (and a 4-million-plus popular vote margin) at the top of the ticket. And especially when you factor in the predictions of House Democratic leaders and independent handicappers that Democrats were poised to net double-digit seats and widen their majority.
This is another clue that Democrats won by cheating! They could cheat on the local elections; they had to focus on the seat of the future dictator, Kamala.
Plutocrats from around the world have been taking control of our government, and that process is nearly completed. Now is the time for all good men and women to come to the aid of our country, and that includes perpetual campaigning. Get out the vote every day, and we just might be able to secure our rights. Learn to get cohesive, work together.
Learn to recognize nay-saying infiltrators and speak up. Get them out. Throw out political correctness, and work to put good men of early American philosophy into office. Get the vote out so much, that we’ll win the popular votes!
[And take every other precaution to secure our future.]
They COULDN’T cheat on the local elections
Sorry!
We the people voted for President Trump to a second term and gave him a new Republican House and a Republican Senate so he would have the power to govern our country the way it was founded. This election has been fraudulently stolen by evil people in a planned coup.
This will come back to haunt the left.
And yet, Up ticket, they didn’t vote for Trump? Sure thing.
Shows the lack of accuracy of the Cook Report.
whether Joe Biden had beaten Donald Trump (he had) and whether Democrats would win back the Senate majority (they haven’t — yet)
notice how it proclaims (he had)
but says, (they haven’t — yet)
Thank God you’re not involved with the fight for the White House
I believe Republican Candidates who lost by 6% or less need to look at their results, I bet a few more seats were made Dem by Fraud...
Which GOP seats were lost?
When was the last time the incumbent lost but his party picked up seats in The House? Never! Makes the presidential results even more suspicious.
I said the GOP gained 12 seats by beating democrats
And held onto others that went red to red
I have not been following what House seats we lost, if any
We lost 2 in the Senate so far
They justify all their criminal crap, like an abusive spouse: I hit her, but she moved my coffee cup.
Now it's yes there was fraud, but not enough to effect the outcome.
This is impossible. Didn’t Fox authoritatively predict that the Dims would pick up 5 to 10 House seats?
The left screws up everything it touches. They can’t even cheat without screwing it up.
Subtract out California and New York, and what would the numbers be; plus vote fraud.
Coattails without a coat for the first time in Presidential history!
that was just theory in reply to that other comment that was made.
