The big steal in 2020 did demotivate many to give up on the system.

74 percent told CNN they didnt like the direcfion of thr country. but they voted to continue the decline? Morons.

What is sad, you like most Americans are what my late father called Spoiled Brats.

Under Trump the US enjoyed the following:
Gas price per gallon was about $2.30;
Inflation about 1.4%;
Unemployment low before Covid and before Blue Governors shut everything
down and we were in the midst of a V-shape recovery;
Tax decrease; tax laws promoted small businesses as well as large;
US enjoyed energy independence - No Green Agenda, no war on energy, No Paris Treaty;
No war in Ukraine; NATO paid its way;
China was quiet and we were winning the trade war;
US companies were bringing home the jobs due to tax treatment;
Peace in the Middle East aka Abraham Accords; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem;

I am convinced this is true because I don’t think ANY of the pollsters, including Baris or Trafalgar, made an adjustment for those who already voted.

For ex, say you have a voter population of 500,000, but 200,000 vote early. You poll that and get one result. but in November you poll and it looks really good . . . because you have failed to account for the fact that you are polling a remnant of just over half-—but the ones voting the other way have already voted. It will be interesting to see if the pollsters come to this conclusion.

The Republican Party is being held hostage by a one-term egomaniac with literally zero chance of winning another election and you think Iā€™m worried about making friends here?!?! You are just another clown in trumps circus.

America, as we have known her, is finishedā€¦ā€¦..

*******

Assuming you mean the USA. Nothing new about changes in the
USA/North America since Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492.
People, laws, rationale, goals, leadership, etc have changed and will
continue no matter what the USA has as rules/regs in the future. The
inhabitants will set the agenda as they see fit

Youā€™re describing what happened in PA where a million early votes were in the barn before the debate.

Another adjacent scenario was 2020 when feds & MSM kept the lid on the laptop from hell

imo neither situation could show up in the polls

I haven’t seen anybody (I’m sure I missed some) state the real cause for the loss (and yes it was a loss) by the GOP.

ABORTION!!!! No doubt in my mind that that was the game changer.
Also Donald Trump (who I have supported since 2015) also hurt the GOP badly with his making it all about him. His rally performances in recent weeks have been embarrassing
If the GOP could not beat Biden and his sorry crew in the current climate, they are finished.
America is finished, the country has gone blue.

We tried one more time, hoping against hope that the mess of two years ago wouldn’t be re-enacted. Elections don’t work. The system is too gone. Their bullies will soon be here telling us to become precinct captains for another run.

Opt out. Live your life and protect your family. And when Biden says, “We will gain a seat and hold the house,” and Jean-Pierre says “Republicans won’t like the results,” believe them.

- Purple states are going deep blue. There is no middle ground.

We saw red states get redder, blue states get bluer, and purple states...get bluer.

Fortress Florida can't save the nation by itself. Their election reforms showed the way, but getting them passed elsewhere is going to take a titanic effort.

Many in Arizona return their mail-in ballots in person to avoid mishandling by USPS. I think these ballots are as yet uncounted.

The country will be Venezuela by 2024ā€¦.

The GOP should have said loud and clear ā€¦.it would be drill baby drillā€¦

There a useless partyā€¦at the federal levelā€¦

Never said how they would fix inflationā€¦

Plus the democrats are great at cheating so the GOP lose most close electionsā€¦

Plus the GOP is split partyā€¦MAGA vs the old guard..

‘all I know is that 2 years ago, a lot more people voted R. I do not think those people have gone away or switched parties.’

you do realize that midterm elections always generate at best two thirds of the typical turnout of presidential election...right?
