Got to say, the right wing, not just politicians, infighting is pretty amazing.
I'm enjoying watching the RINO's show who they really are and who they really serve. The uniparty is falling apart before our eyes.

It's so weird that the states who are still counting votes are all ran by Dem Secretaries of State plus the RINO ran Alaska. Who did the uniparty hire to count votes, George RR Martin?

Before it was 49-48 Republicans last I looked. But apparently Republicans are willing to lock down the Country if what they want is not included when it comes time for raising the Debt Ceiling, which is messed up. Playing Games with the People. But, then again, Dems are no better.

I feel like this is a much more accurate assessment of American sentiment towards the left.

How much blue do you see?

Oh.

Oh...
what % of the population lives in those blue spots bucko?

oh yeah

so based on that, blue is over performing. on top of that there were more dem seats up for re-election, in a mid-term year. the gop MASSIVELY under performed. if it was a red wave like 2010 dems would be down like 60+ seats, but the projections show the split to be under 15 seats. there is also a 1 in 8 chance dems pick up enough seats to keep the house by 1-2 seats.

THIS should make the R's worried

Hi. Guy who designs maps here. Did you know that you can paint maps in any way you want, with whatever kind of biases that you want, in order to paint the narrative that you want, based on minimalist data points?

For California (Kommiefornia), Prop 31 may have Passed, but a Federal Lawsuit was Filed against it, and I can see why:......

Yes on Prop 31 TV Ad claiming Flavors, including Menthol are Marketed to Kids..........REALLY????? It is Illegal to run Ads for Cigarettes, and any Magazine Ad shows an ADULT. So where are the Marketing showing Kids Smoking. The Ad was showing a Ice Cream Truck, and the Ice Cream melts to show Vapes and E-Cigs. So please, anyone, show me the Ads where it shows Kids marketing to other Kids about Flavored Nicotine Products

Federal Law is no one under 21 can Purchase or Use..........same for Alcohol, but then again no one is talking about that. If Flavors hook Kids, what about all the Flavored Alcohol, and the Low Alcohol Flavored Drinks are a starting point for Kids. But with all the Legal Problems with Alcohol, Law Enforcement and Courts would take a hit, so no one is discussing that. Guess they dont care that Kids can still get at Alcohol, get Drunk, taken advantage of, Drugged, possibly end up being Trafficked, end up in the Hospital, Die from it, or go to Jail.

I obviously posted an undoctored screenshot.

But, nice try. Correction. Terrible try.

I'm sure you did your best.

gonna be interesting to see who ends up as speaker of the house. it's a split between maga GOP vs regular GOP. it might actually be possible to scrounge up 10 republicans out of the 200+ to get a dem speaker of the house lol.
