Current Affairs General US politics (ie, not POTUS related)

I'm pretty sure the Republicans will hold both, even if the house is held narrowly.

Which of course would be a disastrous result for the Democrats.

The problem I see is that I see no clear figurehead for them emerging as an electoral hope. They seem in disarray and relying on celebs to do their job on social media - and that echo chamber, as we all know by now, doesn't translate to votes.

We'll see though.

I have found hope in the aforementioned Beto O'Rourke, and AOC.

Beto for El Presidente.

That is damn funny and also quite brutal because it's near true in some districts.

Not a surprise but would have been very bad news if Stewart had found any hidden groundswell of support.

Interesting one.



Would represent a slight Democrat upset win, but critically this is Kentucky - it's an achievement she's in the running at all there.

the guy in front of me in line tried to show his ID and was casually explained to that isn't necessary. Thankfully I live in a state where govt actually functions.
