The unstated reason why the red wave died: If we don't address this one, we're doomed.
American Thinker ^ | 11/23/2022 | Carole Hornsby Haynes

With the failure of the Republican Party to achieve a red wave in the midterm elections, many explanations — and accusations — are being bandied about.  Blame is attributed to abortion, Trump endorsements, election integrity, and voter fraud, and the shifting of millions of votes to Democrats by Google, Facebook, and other tech monopolies.

Marketing expert Mark Beal from the Rutgers University School of Communication and Information believes there is still another factor in the election that is being overlooked: the impact of Generation Z.  An expert on this group (born between 1997 and 2012), Beal says they will wield increasing influence on local, state, and national election outcomes.

This "purpose" generation is focused on environment issues and women's rights.  Aggressively programmed in diversity, inclusion, and equity, they support "corporations, brands, organizations and individuals running for office that have the ability, influence and power to contribute to a better world, nation and community."

The oldest members of this cohort first voted in 2015.  During the time of the 2020 presidential election, five classes, ages 18–23, voted.  In the 2022 election, the seventh class of Gen Z to turn 18 also voted.  An NBC poll showed that Gen Z voted for Biden more than any other age demographic and contributed to the success of Biden in states such as Georgia and Pennsylvania. 

Beal states that Gen Z through 2030 will constitute the majority of voters as the youngest members of the cohort turn 18.  He believes they "will significantly influence future elections for many years."

Gen Z naïvely believe the Marxist/Leninist propaganda that equity means equality for all rather than the central government forcing redistribution of property.

Nope, the voter fraud is diverse, ubiquitous and baked in. We are in a Carter economy kids are being mutilated, 5 million illegals in 2 years on and on. We barely won the house probably because the rats let it happen. We should have easily won the Senate. Just look at the BS they pulled in AZ.

It was stolen.

Why then in Georgia did Brian Kemp win by 8% but Walker couldn't beat Warnock? Same state, same system, same ballots, same voters.

You’ve got to have a message, apart from “we’re not Democrats.”

“focus on FRAUD, which is specific and obvious.

Grand theories about generational change are just fluff.”

Republicans focused on fraud and lost.

Democrats focused on generational change and won.

If you think your vote will be flipped, the rational thing is not to vote.

The rational thing is to audit the voting machines.

These youngsters are going to have to lose their jobs and suffer under inflation while paying record taxes. Then they will figure out that the democrat Marxists are taking all their money.

It was stolen.

Articles/It was stolen.

OpEds like this one from a Liebral Eastern University appear to try and minimize the stolen votes.

"Gen Z has certainly been woke-marxist-propagandized and mis-educated more than any other generation
But like the hippies, or baby-boomers, or other large groups, they are also not uniform, and will face the same basic interests of taxes, crime, cost-of-living, etc... This self-interest will always be strong
focus on FRAUD, which is specific and obvious.
Grand theories about generational change are just fluff."

Great post.

Our grandkids and grand nieces/nephews who were born into this age group and for the most part are getting good degrees or working in a good trades. They say many if not most of their peers in this group are more into protesting than voting to bring about changes.

Right.

These geniuses found meaningful demographic trends in the fake ballots they studied.

The Dems did a much better job with redrawing districts. They drew many out of existence in place like Illinois and Colorado. The dems used lawfare to stop many R redraw efforts.

K-12 public schools need to be a priority to reform as well as provide choice/vouchers.

In the past, younger generations were just as Marxist in their inclinations but it was considered harmless because many of them never bothered to vote.

In the era of ballot harvesting it's a much bigger issue - young voters many not show up, but their ballots will.

We won’t. Voters no longer count, only the number of ballots count.

2024 is in the bag for the Democrats, as are all other meaningful elections thereafter.

Equity and equality mean shared misery, nothing less.
Today’s learning institutions are lying, grooming, and indoctrinating the next 3 generations, as we speak. It will be hard to reversed the brainwashing that has already occurred.
p.s. It was stolen.

Never.

It's instantly gratifying and much easier to cry, "We wuz robbed!" than it is to possibly look at other, more complicated and painful reasons for why we lost yet another election.
