Trump's Headed for a Major Victory on Election Night (it's killing them!)
Newsweek.com ^ | 10/28/22 | Katherine Fung

Former President Donald Trump's Senate endorsement record is headed for a stellar election night with 10 days until the midterms.

Of the 22 Republican candidates that Trump has endorsed for the Senate, only two are currently at risk of losing their races, according to a Newsweek analysis.

The two Trump-backed Republicans who are projected to lose their contests as of Friday are Kelly Tshibaka, who is running in Alaska's ranked-choice voting system against incumbent Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski, and Leora Levy, who is running in Connecticut against incumbent Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal.

Not much difference. Every democracy in the world has a constitution and elected politicians who vote on issues. In a true democracy a simple majority decides every issue. There is no need for elected politicians in a true democracy.

Kinda like driving on the 110 Harbor Freeway through Los Angeles without traffic.

It’s eerie.

And Moron Mika this morning talks up DeSantis..... what? Something ain’t right.

Remember, democrats are paying upwards of $7.00 a gallon for gas also - and many of them are only what they are because their parents and grandparents were lifelong democrats

A lot of R’s are going to owe DJT after election nite. Even so, I think a lot of the projections are a bit optimistic. I suspect that vote fraud in Pennsylvania could keep the US Senate out of Republican control. Too many mail in ballots, too early in a state where Democrats have refined ballot harvesting to an art form.

On Lars Larsson show they were talking about how awful ranked choice voting is.

Since Alaska has it a Democrat could win.

If it was explained correctly say a Republican has the most votes, a Dem comes in second. Then the votes for the weakest candidate, say fifth in line, get knocked out and given to the #2 candidate, the Dem.

So if Republicans get the majority of the vote you could still have a Dem win with only a minority of the votes.

Even governor Moonbeam of California vetoed this idea it was so bad.

I live in Alaska and hate Rank Choice voting !! It’s terrible.. I’m voting for Kelly Tshibaka but I think Murkowski gonna win because of the rank choice.. It seems like even though Trump has endorsed Tshibaka she’s not really liked even among Republicans up here.. Fingers crossed!
