The dems picked up the most house seats in an election since watergate, some how the dems best showing in 40 years is a republican win, only the conspiracy morons here and in the WH could spin that kind of horseshit!

I think you forgot about 2010 when republicans picked up 65+ house and senate seats.

The number of house seats picked up by Democrats was about average as the party who doesn’t control the White House picks up in the first

I didn't forget about shit you just didn't read properly...

The DEMOCRATS picked up more house seats in the 2018 MT's then they have since watergate. My statements was comparing only democrat wins in elections. The statement is factually correct.

Well it was a big blue wave!

Trump handed the dems their biggest win since Watergate, they picked up 31 seats so far and could be 37!

This is with Democrats vastly outstanding republicans (with much of the money coming from out of state, that Democrats hate so much that they gladly solicit and spend).

Also many of the picked up seats were by moderate Democrats.

I hope the Republicans never get tired of winning like this! These are the kinds of "wins" that will help make the republican party more and more irrelevant!

You're just jealous of the most expensive healthcare in the world and the 10x gun murder rate and the stable genius POTUS.

"Average result, since 1970, for President’s Party in midterm when job approval is below 50% - 33 seat loss"

https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2018-midterm-elections-preview/

Average flipped seats when approval is below 45%: 23

See you can pick any made-up criteria to make it look as bad as you want to.

Well it was a big blue wave!

Trump handed the dems their biggest win since Watergate, they picked up 31 seats so far and could be 37! Arizona and Florida senate seats are still very much up for grabs, so Republicans may only gain 1 seat in the senate with an extremely favourable senate election map.

I can't wait for the 2020 "vulnerable" Republicans to start to distance themselves from the POTUS!

A lot of Republican politicians won't want to follow Trump over the cliff LOL.

When the investigations start rolling out, Trump spends 2 more years humiliating himself in public and the election maps start to favour dems the Republicans are going to get decimated in 2020!

Democrats also gained 7 governors and made gains (flipped or split or broke supermajorities) in about a dozen state legislatures. Gained 3 or 4 state AGs.

The fact that Democrats came out to vote (thanks mostly to Trump) made the difference. They consistently outnumber Republicans just rarely vote in midterms. Indeed a "tremendous success" for Trump but not quite for the Republicans.

Congrats Democrats, you get a C. Maybe a C+ if you do the extra credit. The blue wave star sticker goes to people who get A's.

I am not overly optimistic about the result.

I just hope people will go and VOTE! That is the most important thing of all. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Staying home is also a vote.

By the way, how WOULD a SOS run for another office under the laws of a particular state without overseeing his own election? I assume that since you've complained about that, you have determined that the current action is improper under the Alabama state law, and are prepared to explain what the right method is?

What does this have to do with Alabama? You might want to start reading what you're commenting on unless your goal is to make yourself look like a moron, in which case - well done.

Kemp could have resigned, which is quite normal for people seeking higher office. It's probably not illegal to not do so but it's also quite appropriate to criticize for obvious conflict of interest.

My mistake, your mis direction.

Trump issued an executive order moving Georgia to Alabama lol Wink

Republicans do you have your life boats ready, don't want you all getting wet when the blue wave comes in!

Wanna bet on it? Wink

I look forward to at least a few days of you hiding with your tail between your legs trying to avoid discussing how wrong you were. Or maybe you can just move the whole midterms to the reputation section.

The URL itself already tells you how corrupt this dude is. He's overseeing his own election. And now he's investigating his opponent.

He's also had 2 very recent rulings against his sos office in voter suppression cases.

I will assume since the right values innocent until proven guilty that the Dems are completely innocent ....

Sure, let's assume Kemp is innocent of your slanders, and the Dems are innocent too. ~~Let's also assume a Republican nominee for Supreme Court~~....

I will assume since the right values innocent until proven guilty that the Dems are completely innocent because they deny it and of course the investigation is a witch hunt because it has been denied.

It looks like one of the lawsuits involved security issues:

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-45572871

Quote

The State’s posture in this litigation – and some of the testimony and
evidence presented – indicated that the Defendants and State election officials had
buried their heads in the sand. This is particularly so in their dealing with the
ramifications of the major data breach and vulnerability at the Center for Election
Services, which contracted with the Secretary of State’s Office, as well as the
erasure of the Center’s server database and a host of serious security vulnerabilities
permitted by their outdated software and system operations

And more recently someone alerted about a specific vulnerability in voter registrations:

https://whowhatwhy.org/2018/11/04/exclusive-georgias-voter-registration-system-like-open-bank-safe-door/

But why fix the system when you can investigate the Democrats.
