I expect that nearly every (R) who loses will claim their election was stolen -- and then they'll get backed up by the administration and its courts. They'll simply deny any losses and proceed as if that's God's honest truth. And this will be after they themselves do everything in their power to suppress votes and rig the election. Is it not completely clear to everyone that this is what's going to happen? The number of actual votes is largely irrelevant at this point in American history.

Yeah, but now they will be upset when they vote Maga. They used to be gleeful. I mean, it changes nothing really, but at least they won't be as happy as they are now.

Let's see how elections go before celebrating. Zero reason to trust all will be fair, especially in Texas.

Concluding Paragraph:

Ossoff and Talarico have both been smart about not just highlighting corruption, but also why it matters for voters. It’s indicative of leaders whose interests are self-serving. The result is that everyday Americans lose out, both financially and when it comes to getting fair treatment from their government. More voters are putting the pieces together, and Democrats who help them get there, like Ossoff and Talarico, are being rewarded in the polls.

Don’t believe it.

Kamala has got it in the bag! There’s no way that Dems failing to address needs of their constituents will go badly at all. (I say from a Left of Liberal position)

My mom was a small business too.

I’ll believe it when I see a Dem win Texas. So many polls have been so wrong lately. El-Sayeds win was a nail biter that had him up double digits before Election Day.

I get what you were saying, okay. I was there. But theres a difference this time: the Dems running in those races arent women. It really does all come down to sexism.

Ok.
