The district has not elected a Republican since 1974 and Democratic voters outnumber Republicans 42 percent to 24 percent.

In 2024, we absolutely have to pick better candidates. In Pennsylvania, the two other primary candidates would have done better. in Georgia, the other primary candidate would’ve been better. I’m not so sure about Arizona, but choosing a guy that looks 15 wasn’t a good idea.

In order to do this, we need to accept the fact that these candidates lost because they were not good candidates.

Many are unwilling to accept this and would rather blame vote fraud for the defeat of these excellent, popular, and otherwise totally electable candidates.

My definition of a “good candidate” is one who can stop voter fraud by their opponent in their race.

“Democracy” is when the best cheater wins.

Are we talking about real, actual, measurable, and provable voter fraud or "my candidate lost so there had to be voter fraud" voter fraud?

It is the Los Angeles basin and the San Francisco Bay Area they are highly populated and very liberal. Due to sheer numbers they get their way state wide.

The rest of California is conservative. Larger land area but much less population.

Remember JimRob is in Fresno. We have the most number of FReepers in California.

“real, actual, measurable, and provable voter fraud”

You see, it depends who gets to investigate it.

I know an old attorney who used to explain what he wanted to see when it came to assigning attorneys to projects.

He said they had to be capable, highly motivated, and honorable.

If the investigators are incompetent, corrupt or just “mailing it in” you will never “prove” substantial voter fraud.

That just shows you how sick those people are. If somebody truly believed in the cause that much, why wouldn’t he VOLUNTEER to fix an election? But no, they all have their hands out and will only count phony ballots for money.

What a sick bunch of people. I’d respect these people more if they cheated on their own damn dime.

“That just shows you how sick those people are. If somebody truly believed in the cause that much, why wouldn’t he VOLUNTEER to fix an election? But no, they all have their hands out and will only count phony ballots for money.”

This is the telltale sign. DeTocqueville pointed out the flaw in centralized administration, the to make it work, you need a religion-like movement behind it. He pointed out that the Turkish Islamic Empire spread out and flourished, because people will enthusiastically support conquest and rigorous tyranny in the name of Allah, but when it became merely a tyranny, it fell into decline. Eric Hoffer would agree.

So the Dems’ fervor for cheating in elections worked when they believed they were warding off the Orange Man Bad devil. But now they are stuck with merely more of the same with Brandon the senile surrender monkey tax-and-spend liberal. And as much as they are fond of taxing and spending, Brandon has nothing going on, and his attempts to demonize Orange Man Bad are waning. So the election cheating is now just a matter of “what’s in it for me,” as it ought to be.

Actually, the Constitution specified March 4 as the convening date for the new Congress, from 1789-1933.

The rest of California is conservative.

Not so sure lived in california for 40 years never seen to many of them it would be nice if it was true.
To many trend followers and slow thinkers so many go with the lefts flow just to fit in few stand for logic sad.

Yes.

But that area only been the district by this number 13 now.

Every year prior district number 13 covered Oakland and Berkeley.

It’s weird redistricting and renumbering.

The same district number has not had a Republican since 1974, but the where district 13 is now is totally different than where it used to be.
