re: #115 Anymouse š¹
The fact there were Dems that stood up for those seats and won two state seats is actually remarkable considering how red all of them were. The GOP knows this and spreading manure like ālook how much money the Dems spent and lostā misses the point of how much money the GOP spent to hold on to seats like Newt Gingrichās old seat.
I should clarify that it isnāt so much the losses themselves that bother me, but the abysmal voter turnout (only 54% in Montanna and something similar in GA-06ā¦?)
Low-turnout elections almost always favor the GOP.
Thatās why Sarah Kendzior also harps on turnout/suppression constantly:
