[Wallace T.]

The Detroit Lions would then be in the Canadian Football League!

I wish the Amish would vote

[dfwgator]

And would still lose.

The key to the scheme was pumping up the blue numbers n the red counties.

Not enough to WIN those counties - but enough to reduce the need to cheat hard in the blue counties.

It's actually brilliant.

Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, on the other hand, had to let it all hang out in their major blue counties.

[skeeter]

So I’ll just vote my own convictions and chuck the rest. At least I’ll sleep well at night.

[kiryandil]

The Cryins cured me of football in 1980.

I'll post up my spreadsheet for you sometime in the next week.

Once you see the rigging, you can't unsee it.

[cowboyusa]

They won’t flip 18 seats.

[cowboyusa]

Looks like they will pick up seats, but fall short. Mabey 10.

[PMAS]

Yeah, Detroit is totally legit in every election

[cgbg]

...something about mandatory fraud...

The most hated governor in America got re-elected...uhuh.

[bella1]

Are you saying that if the election weren't rigged Detroit would vote Republican?

[PMAS]

No, I’m saying that Detroit padded their statewide leads rigging vote totals, just like Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Atlanta, Phoenix, Vegas, Chicago & New York like every other election.
Why do you think they can’t count and always report late - this has been going on for decades

[bella1]

Mount Olivet has been voting Dem for decades.

[clearcarbon]

"I’m sure the dems will turn the MI economy right around and restore Detroit to its former glory..."

[RckyRaCoCo]

Soros Angels

[clearcarbon]

"Soros Angels"

[kiryandil]

The Michigan Republicans bayonetted the Trump guy [John Gibbs] in MI House district 3 [Kent County].

Tells me which side Michigan Republican leadership is on - their Democrat Party buddies.

No one that I’ve seen has credited the Michigan’s Independent Redistricting Commission for the results we are seeing today. When Michigan loses the state senate and the state house for the first time in decades one has to ask why. WHitler is no prize along with skanks Nessel and Benson down to dog catcher in only 4 years.

Up until late 2018 MI was a completely red (OK RINOish) state except the two fed senate seats. I do believe in MI many of us quit voting for the lesser of two evils some time ago, all it does is perpetuate the RINO state or even dem so this wasn’t the answer either. Apparently inflation or the price of gas means nothing to these brain stems, too much of other people’s money floating around apparently. Guess we have to burn down the state first (politically) to start over, and if the last century is any indication it might be hopeless. Not sure where to start but maintaining the status quo is a complete failure.
