And it didn’t stop Christie from licking the bottoms of Trump’s shoes.

Someone tell Donald the long tie trick does not work.
Modnote: Moved the Sinema posts to the thread about Sinema. This thread is for the Midterms and clear instructions have been given above to leave off the Sinema & Manchin.
In case they weren’t clear enough … Leave off the Sinema & Manchin discussions.
It’s not just appearance; it’s celebrity that Trump admires most. He chooses in-teresting people and if Bug Bunny is any authority, monsters are the most in-teresting people.
Is there anything left to discuss in a “midterm election watch along” thread? The races are all decided.
Probably not, but someone might still might have something I guess.
I love that Bugs memory
I thought there was a House race or even two not finalized?
It looks like there is still one: CO-3, the seat currently held by Lauren Boebert. With 99% of the votes counted, she has a lead of less than 600 votes over Democrat Adam Frisch.
Here is an interesting article by Pew Research looking at the midterm results. Wisconsin (Ron Johnson) was the only state where Senate race results deviated from the 2020 Presidential race results.
Kari Lake, to no one’s surprise, doesn’t think so.
That’s just a formality until the legally mandated recount is finished. Frisch has already conceded. I realize that a concession isn’t legally binding but a change of over 600 votes in the recount is virtually impossible.
Are you saying you need a Bambleweeny 57 Submeson Brain?
Wasn’t she just recently smacked down and sanctioned legally over these cuckoo for cocoa puffs lawsuits?
“The suit on Friday asks for an order declaring that Lake is the winner of the 2022 Arizona gubernatorial election, or alternatively throwing out the results and requiring the state’s Maricopa county to conduct a new election.”
Yep - Judge orders sanctions against attorneys representing Fincham, Lake
Story is from 12/2.
Looks like she lined up a new punch of suckers to put their reputations at risk. This is likely going to be tossed out of court before Christmas.
I hope it comes with more sanctions, too.
Typo or not, you decide.
Here is an interesting article from today’s NYT about the election. It’s a gift link so no paywall issues. This seems to be the logical thread to place it.
The title explains what it is about - How Republicans Lost Despite Winning the Popular Vote.
The writer takes the position that the GOP showed real strength in a lot of states and should have done better based on the fact they won the total vote by 3%, 51-48. The article is mostly focused on why the GOP failed to translate that advantage into the clear victory one would expect.
On a different note, Boebert has won the recount as was expected. Also from the NYT, this is another gift link to that article, so again no paywall.
waiting on that recount was the last race. house is at 213d-222r.
