John brennan jump on the foundation bandwagon?
I am not familiar with the Brennan Center, but it is associated with the New York University School of Law and is named for Justice Brennan, not for the former CIA Director.
I guessed that, based on geography (Manhattan, NY), academic affiliation, and reverence for Justice Brennan this crowd is not a bunch of conservatives. Therefore, this report is not good news for the Democrats, and runs 180 degrees out from the conventional wisdom that drips from the mainstream media. I’m inclined to put more credibility on this report rather than the silly stuff that I’ve seen on CNN, RealClearPolitics, and Drudge. Stock up on Blue Wave T-shirts, they might become collector’s items.
The “national” vote tallies mean zip, zero, nada when it comes to house races.
Some districts have a larger population than some other districts, as is true not just across the nation but within any state. A district in a dense urban area can contain far more people than a district in a very much less densely populated part of the same state.
So winning “big” in some “large populated” districts may tally to a certain “big” “nation vote tally” but if - regardless of that - you capture fewer districts, your national tally will not produce a representation victory eqaual in percentage to your “national” vote.
We have a constitutional republic, not a “democracy”, and it is intentionally broken up, jurisdictionally, to try to preserve its republican nature and not slide, downhill, into a “democracy”.
This is very interesting.
Do you have a linkable source so this can be sent out?
