2022 US Midterm Electrons | OT | Roeing against the Wave [UP: Dems Keep Senate Control]
- Thread starter Rainy
- Start date
I'm (a Brit) struggling to keep up with what's going on, everything is moving so fast. Is it good news or bad?
Biden might not be popular, but progressive policies are.
Quinnipac was the last major landline poller, and theyve even started taking cell phone samples.
I'd wager most popular it text and email polls, followed by cell phone. Landline still by far most reliable for older demographics.
We aren't getting calls for either for several days at least, possibly several weeks.
Oh god, what he'll have I unleashed by being the first to mention Sonic Frontiers in this thread? lol
I mentally committed to the Sonic Frontiers thing if we kept the house last night, largely because my thought at the time was 'there is like no way that is happening so why not.'
Sticking with it because why the fuck not. If the miracle happen, I'll buy Sonic and just occasionally look at it and remember that politics are weird.

And add me to your list. I wanna be held to ACCOUNT : )

Whyyyyy
I didn't know the reason the Rs disappointed until I read through this thread.
This is clearly the Sonic effect. In addition to being a hero and protecting helpless animals, Sonic is now influencing our elections.
GENERALLY SPEAKING: good news. Young people and progressives came out, and flipped a lot of smaller local seats, which in turn will lead to improvements down the line.
In terms of the country: that's still being counted. We're very close to a 50/50 split senate, and that could potentially go 51/49 in Democrat favor. Currently republicans are predicted to take the house (which we more or less knew going in), but there's a 1 in 6 chance that somehow the last few congress seats being counted may go to Dems with mail in votes making up the ground.
Trump is seething, Fox News and Ben Garrison have dumped him in favor of Desantis, etc etc.
It's hard to look at yesterday and call it a win for Republicans in any sense of the word "win". Sure they may get the house, but their platform is in shambles
Better than expected on all fronts. The house being in play is a huge surprise. Mostly good news with a couple bummers sprinkled in.

Whats the best comprehensive source for tracking all remaining races? Since the NYT needle stopped I havent found anything that has all the info compiled in one place
The problem with presidential approval ratings is that they only ask if u think he's doing a good job, not whether or not you still support him. As we've seen plenty of times even here, plenty of people don't think Biden's doing a good job. But they're still gonna support him and the Dems all the way.
About as good as anyone could have reasonably hoped for. Looks like the Dems should keep a very slim hold on the Senate and will either miraculously keep the House or at least only be down a few seats when it could have been a wipeout. Still a long road ahead and it's gonna take people staying engaged for a few years and beyond to keep up the fight against fascism, but this can really only be construed as a relative win for the Democrats and a relative loss for the Republicans.
Sega should be thanking you. Maybe give you a job or something, lol.
Very good news for horrible inflation and the president's first midterm. The fact that it looks like the Dems will control the Senate still and MIGHT control the House is a nightmare for the republicans.
I'll take a free copy of sonic frontier as well (PS4). Celebration of Fetterman's win. lol :P
I'm not sure why you would punish your kids like this but I'll buy you a digital copy of Frontiers if Dems win the House
I'm not really a Sonic guy, but if they hold the House I'll put up 5 copies of Frontiers for giveaway.
Considering what a fucking loser Trump looks like right now, Musk would have to be a complete idiot to unban him.
(So Trump could absolutely be unbanned soon.)
STOP THE COUNT! STOP THE COUNT!
