    USA 2022 US Midterm Election Thread

    I'm really hoping that the 'red wave' happens and the electorate sends a message to these asshats in power right now, but I'm very cautiously optimistic. The democrats have already been whining for weeks now that if things don't go their way that it's obviously because of "voter suppression".

    And sadly, I live in a state that is as blue as California, so I don't have much hope that things will change much in Colorado, if at all.

    Also, why is Trump taking shots at DeSantis already? FFS we don't need party in-fighting, we need unity at the time of elections.

    For all the good Trump did in his term in office, he's an absolute moron when it comes to common sense in matters like this. It's Trump's fault that Georgia went blue in 2020 in the US Senate.

    Because Trump knows that if DeSantis runs in '24, DeSantis will kick Trump's ass. Trump came out later and walked back his statements and told Floridians to vote for DeSantis.

    Trump's only partly responsible for what happened in GA in '20. Atlanta invited Hollywood to set up shop in GA, so an influx of entertainment types came out to work and live in the state. They're largely Progressives. I think now that the Centrists in my state have seen what the Dems are up to, they'll come back to the Conservative side this time around and more Republicans will come out and vote.

    Trump flat out told republicans to stay home and not vote in the Georgia senate runoff elections because the election was rigged and their vote wouldn't count. He single handedly kept enough republican voters from voting in a close election that it threw both seats to the democrats.

    And I can only hope that DeSantis can win the nomination in 2024, there are still an awful lot of Trump acolytes that think he walks on water and would do anything he says. Don't get me wrong, I would 100% vote for him if he ends up the nominee because there is no way I could vote for one of the clown show contestants on the democrat side, but the best way for the republicans to win the WH in 2024 is to move on from Trump.

    The polls haven't even closed yet and Stacey Abrams is already whining about voter suppression.

    I agree. There are enough Independents, moderate Republicans and even some moderate Democrats that would definitely vote for a strong Republican candidate next time around as long as it isn't Trump. I hope he doesn't run or at least not become "the" candidate.

    I think Abbott won... decisively. It looks like Stacey Abrams conceded the race to Brian Kemp, although none of the tv news outlets are reporting it just yet, or so I've seen.

    It's official, Kemp won (thank God). It looks like Walker and Warnock are heading for a runoff.
