So no one here has voted for or is going to vote for the treasonous coup-attempting felon rapist guy, right?

[SHUHoopsFan]

Partially true. The Dems did not want to give up the war chest $ that Biden had. If any other candidate was chosen they didn’t get that $. She was part of the ticket so was able to use the war chest. Over $1.2B spent according to some sources. Their gamble to go with the $ didn’t pay off.

Watching the in-party fighting now is hilarious. Everyone blaming someone and nobody blaming themselves. They spent a ton on ads and celebrities showing up to entertain for them. I thought the most effective ad of either campaign was the transgender surgery while in prison ad Trump ran. Democrats claim it's an anti transgender ad, but I think most people with any common sense saw that ad as saying you're struggling paying for groceries, gas and housing, and instead of helping you keep afloat we've got to spend the money on social justice issues. They could've spent 2.4 billion in ads and nothing in my opinion was countering that argument Trump made because the democrats lost common sense.

The fact that Nevada and Arizona still haven’t finished election counting is insane. Anyone who thinks this is an acceptable system is beyond delusional

Multiple states dont have final counts and there are still provisional ballots that need to be certified

It's one thing not to have final numbers....but California only 60% in. Arizona not at 80% reporting. That can't be acceptable.

As far as ads go, the most effective thing the Harris campaign could have done was blast Trump's "I don't care about you, I just want your vote" quote on a loop for the last 2 weeks. I'm actually kind of surprised I didn't see that in a single one of her ads.

My real feeling though is I'm just glad I don't need to see any more of these garbage political ads for a while.

Living in Northampton County in PA, the ads have been nonstop. I never thought I would appreciate seeing Wawa ads again!

The ROI on TV advertising must be abysmal but I guess if you don’t do it and your competitor does…IMO it’s more of the viral moments that impact voters, like Trump at McDonald’s or driving the garbage truck.

That and Liz Cheney going to back to irrelevancy.

Oh, and I missed one piece. They picked a candidate that was too liberal for independents and Republicans who dislike Trump to vote for. A more centrist Democrat would've had a very good chance to win, IMO.

I think this is spot on.

 

[donnie_baseball]

Well, if you mean people wouldn't have voted for a woman or an African American back then, I suppose it would. But if you mean they wouldn't vote for someone who incessantly lies about voter fraud, sought to overturn our election to hold onto power, is a felon, sexually assaulted people, talks about using the justice department to go after political enemies, has used his office to personally enrich himself and his family to the tune of billions of dollars, admires and aspires to be a dictator, racistly others minorities, etc, etc, it would not.

You have the same blind spot that the DNC has. Uber progressive policies are not going to fly, and clearly not just with "boomers." And please stop with that pejorative, if there's 1-2 of them here it would be a lot. I don't like Trump, and haven't, in good conscience, voted for him three times now, for many of the reasons that you outline. I would point out, however, that the Clintons, the Obamas, and ESPECIALLY the Bidens used the office to enrich themselves. Look at the number of FACE act prosecutions during the Biden administration. This law has been around since the 90s and in the past 4 years, there has been record numbers of arrests, sending SWAT teams into people's houses, jailing septuagenarians and octogenarians. Biden's DOJ crushing their political opponents. You probably applauded it, but it's no different from what accusations you have laid out.

Wont get as much attention because it’s the Senate race, but Dave McCormick in PA ran a masterful campaign, particularly his ads. Bob Casey is a 3X incumbent from a blue blood family in Pennsylvania politics and about as moderate as it gets in Today’s Democratic Party. No one outside of McCormick’s campaign gave him a chance. If more Republicans had followed his playbook they’d have an even bigger majority in the Senate.

I live in PA, and posted earlier that this was a shocker. McCormick if you remember lost to Oz in the 2020 primary. He ran a great campaign and Casey started to look desperate in the last month, distancing himself from Harris.

I’ve met Casey a couple of times and he is the biggest phoney and empty suit. As a comparison, I’ve also met Shapiro three times and I really like him a lot.

Everyone loves Shapiro. Word is he said no to becoming VP because he has his own aspirations and did not want to be second fiddle to Harris. Wasn’t widely publicized. He’s classy and sensible. Anyone who has met the guy likes him a lot.

This is spot on true. He wanted nothing to do with Harris.

So much if the mainstream media is still clueless on why we just saw the biggest political landslide in like 40 years.

I’ve heard the narrative that Trump got something like 45% of the Latino vote and won with Latino males because of misogyny.

Hillary won that group by 31 points 8 years ago. 75% of the same group went to Obama before that. And, Mexico has a female president.

So that same contingent all of a sudden turned misogynistic or rascist?

Not my state, not that I don't care but clearly election results are thin margins. All legal votes should be certified and tabulated. 7 days post election is a good buffer to me. What people here are seeking is a federally mandated process of doing this exercise. Is this not a states rights and the way each state handle issue?

It was 22 and trump orchestrated that at the time with an oz endorsement. Sam brown was also in primary season for senate in 22 and Bush style family legacy helped crush his chance then in Nevada.

If everyone else can figure it out so quick, you might want to ask what they’re doing better

mccormick is a phoney too. did i want trump? no. but really didn't want mccormick. the "connecticut hedge fund manager" is real. doubt he even lives in pa during his term. just as much in it for him. his campaigns in the past were completely off the rocker.

but something also looks strange with his results right now with finishing the count

It was this way in 2020 too. Florida, with 13-14 million registered voters, reports nearly all of its totals on election night. Nevada has only 2 million registered voters. Arizona has a little over 4 million. It's an absolute disgrace.

If 48 other states can figure out…and you wonder why people question the integrity sometimes.

The great American experiment, nothing like it in history. An unbelievable capacity to remain unshakable and self-correct when needed. The country was moving too far and too fast to the extreme left, and the system self-corrected. It's a beautiful thing.

You know McCormick is a phoney how? Commercials or MSM talking points. How many days did HRC live in NY when she was Senator? Answer is that it doesn’t matter if they successfully advocate for their electorate.

I don’t know McCormick and don’t know if he’s genuine or a phony.
