The apocolyptics are not needed. A nobody with a weird history ran a poor underfunded campaign that the Mich GOP obviously didn’t care their candidate won or not. In fact Tudor was such a one off they would rather see her lose and wait four years and get a ‘known’ goper on the ballot. The party organization is lazy and dysfunctional very much like the dems were in the mid 1960’s. I remember the arrogant and lazy complacency of Oakland County dem operatives on the eve of the 1966 congressional rout. Many of those weak hacks got the sack and were replaced by stronger hacks. GOP is in the
same place. This would be a good time to join a county goper organization.

[[Gov. Gretchen Whitmer defeated Republican challenger Tudor Dixon]]

Proving that her state has a majority of people who are brain-dead morons who would rather have a tyrannical despot ru,ing over them than to have someone who can actually make their state great again. The good people in Michigan u fortu ately have to suffer 4 more years of her thanks to the lazy gimmedat generation which thinks she will give them all kinds of free stuffs, and who don’t mind being g treated like crap in order to get said stuffs

For anybody interested, here is the breakdown of the votes by county. Dixon got blown out in Oakland county 61% to 38%. So much for suburban soccer mom coming to the rescue.

It was the doors of the top end companies that I was suggesting you knock on.

Best of luck to you. I understand, I'm 63.

We did not flip any governors. Voting by mail will remain in place for 2024.

I thought that voting by mail was banned for good.

No wonder the Republican party lost.

I smell some big time cheating by the demonrats going on.

Michigan, New York etc outcomes are a symptom of what’s wrong with America as I stated. I never expected a red wave as was projected by just about everyone.

I’m in Georgia and for the FRs that hated Kemp and hoped he’d lose and Abrams would win a big FU. He won by ~8% and the 2 ton gaped tooth bxtch actually conceded this time. Hopefully Walker will take the run-off but I’m doubtful.

Apocolyptics will be the eventual outcome of the disease. The source of which is the institutions I mentioned.

We need GOP Governors to overturn vote by mail. Since we flipped none, voting by mail will continue and be strengthened for 2024.

Nevada big cities stopped counting yesterday due to lack of personnel to handle the mail-in ballots. They will continue today and that means we lose NV as well.

It appears very likely that the Democrats will hold the Senate and maybe pickup a seat.

And that right there is the reason for any nation’s downfall. Sadly it seems our nation wants that too. We aren’t quite there yet, but rapidly approaching it

Yep. This would essentially be a limited constitutional gov from sea to shining sea without the 19th amendment. It’s a failed experiment. Plenty of polisci studies out there to see what the result would be.

Let Big Gretchen shutdown the pipeline that brings most of the propane to Michigan and people may have lots of regrets as they are freezing in their homes.

who failed to get them and why?

It was an outside company hired to collect the signatures. For some unknown reason (ahem), over 30,000 were found to be invalid.........

Where I am in N Nevada-—the ONLY way I could vote in person on a machine was to drive either north or south -—50+++ miles round trip with $5.89 a gallon gas.

Most of this valley is retired....Not so easy to squander gas.

We dropped off our ‘mail ballots’ in person at what used to be our voting location at Senior Center. ONE attendant—NO security—NO “I VOTED” stickers
