    If that is the case, based on reporting and polling, I’m thinking that the R’s will split the government, may take all of Congress. I know here in very liberal WA, the R Senate candidate Smiley is giving 30 year vet Murray a run for her money. Murray had to call on Kamala Harris of all people to help her out this week. Her one debate with Smiley was bruising for her. I guess we’ll see.

    I think at least the House will go R. That will be enough of a split for me. As long as nothing gets done that is not important, then that will be good. If it is important enough, maybe both sides will see that and do something bipartisan.

    The debates here in FL are like watching children fight over skittles.


    That’s to keep your whining ass shut. You want off this ranch, you got it. I’ll drive your ass to the train station myself.

    Not much different in WA.   Incumbent only allowed 1 debate with her challenger.   Right after that K. Harris had to come to help out.   I think our incumbent is going down.

    NJ Gov needed the write ins from the urban areas to win last year, he was gone election night.  If his reelection was this year, he be toast in this heavy liberal state.  The way polls are changing as we get closer, the R support continues to grow.

    I mispoike.   Our incumbent and the R  challenger debated again last night.   I did not see it and did not know about it.  If I had known,  I would have watched.   Apparently it wasn’t good for the incumbent.

    Well, our D Senator has been projected to win. I find it interesting that they can predict that with only 50% of the vote tallied. They were pretty close at that point. The D has held on to the lead with 80% counted.

    We also have a few House races that had been R in the past that seem to be going D. Mine has been D the last 4 years, R before that. So that is turning into another 2 years of D. Down south, it has been R for a long time and that might change. The R is projected to lose. He’s a new R because the old R voted to impeach Trump and the primary voters didn’t like that.

    NJ was able to flip a horrible D with an R. The D grew up under a communist mother and father. He then failed to inform the proper office of Pfizer and other COVID business stock buys. He made a ton of money on paper. So NJ is + 1 R in the House.

    WA lost a R house seat. Ds retained all of what they had.

    Looks like split gov. that is good. Nancy is out. But Ds have the Senate and that is court lenient to Biden. But generally speaking, nothing will get done in the next 2 years, so that is something to celebrate.

    Rs currrently have 220 in the House according to those that project these things. They are certainly counting on this. Nothing will get done I don’t think which is good. But there won’t be any stopping anything either which is not so good.

    Interestingly, R turnout in our conservative counties was way down compared to D turnout in purple or blue counties here in WA. If the R’s had come out more, we would have a new senator. Why didn’t they? Over confidence? Not sure about the fairness of voting anymore? I don’t know but that is the fact.

    So far 220 R vs 213 D in the House. Two more seats to be decided. Boebert of CO, appears to have won and John Duarte of CA appears to have won. So that makes 222 vs 213. Also, the R here in south western WA is disputing and raising money for a recount. So we’ll see, that might make it 223-212.

    It’s almost December. Elections should be settled by the day after.

    Looks like Hershel Walker has a big problem. It is being reported he claimed a primary residence tax credit Texas which could make him ineligible to represent GA in the senate. Presumably, he owns a residence in GA which makes him eligible. My guess is there was an accountant’s error for the Texas property as I’m sure he doesn’t make such filings personally.
