Dems might get more votes in a mid term then trump got in a Presidential election.Trump is toast in 2020,probably loses by at least 10 million votes and The EC is not saving from that. This high turnout makes for some rather unusual accomplishments. For instance, Democratic candidates for the House will receive almost as many votes this year as the 63 million that President Trump received in 2016, when he won the Electoral College (but lost the popular vote). As of Tuesday midday, Democratic House candidates had received 58.9 million votes, according to the latest tally by David Wasserman of the Cook Political Report. However, 1.6 million ballots remain to be counted in California, and those are likely to be extremely Democratic. Other states also have more ballots to count, and they’re often provisional ballots that tend to lean Democratic. In 2016, Democratic candidates for the House added about 4 million votes from this point in the vote count to their final numbers. So this year, an eventual total of anywhere between 60 million and 63 million Democratic votes wouldn’t be too surprising. There isn’t really any precedent for the opposition party at the midterm coming so close to the president’s vote total. The closest thing to an exception is 1970, when Democratic candidates for the House got 92 percent of Richard Nixon’s vote total from 1968, when he was elected president with only 43 percent of the vote. Even in wave elections, the opposition party usually comes nowhere near to replicating the president’s vote from two years earlier. In 2010, for instance, Republican candidates received 44.8 million votes for the House — a then-record total for a midterm but far fewer than Barack Obama’s 69.5 million votes in 2008.
Ex felons might make a huge difference for Democrats...? Sounds like you sure know who the Democratic platform appeals to.
Better check your numbers again for how many votes Democrats got versus Trump. ----Then check your pants---
The Democratic platform appeals to most Americans,thats why they have gotten the most votes in 6 of the last 7 presidential elections. The Democratic platform appeals to most Blacks,Hispanics,Asians,Jews and Middle Easterers as they all majority vote Democrat.
Why do you feel the Democratic platform excludes White men? Imagine how many votes they could get if Democrats were more inclusive.
A lot of white men are racist thus excluding themselves.Racist white men and the majority of minorities can't coexist in the same political party.
Actual racists who are on the Right and who are White are a tiny minority in this country, in spite of what certain political organizations would lead us to believe. The most vocal people who frequently make accusations of racism are White Liberals who call Conservative Whites racists. So yes, there are White racists, but mainly from Leftist Whites acting racist towrds Whites. The Leftists ballwashers are definately united on this one, it seems. The Radical Left has gained too much mileage from playing the racist card for their too often gullible base. I haven’t even brought up the sexism card, the anti-Christianity card, or the other divisive methods the Democrats use to fire up their base. My speech to the all Leftist and Black audience will be about my life in the inner city and some of the things I’ve had to unlearn and overcome to become a happier, productive member of society. The location I will giving this speech has a proverty rate much higher than the average US city. My speech will seek and suggest practical answers to reducing poverty. Even though the audience and I have different outlooks, we share the same goals of helping our community. It would be nice if our National politicians and political party leaders shared the same sentiment.
If that were true 70-90% of minorities and Jews wouldn't be voting democrat.They know who the racists are.
Now that’s a loaded statement. Time for a breakdown. That part of Democratic voters who buy the Radical Leftist racial narrative are dumb, plain and simple. Another part of Democratic voters are illegal immigrants and ex-felons who have practical reasons for supporting Leftists in areas such such as free giveaways, amnesty, and sanctuary cities. Another group that votes Democrats are indoctrinated, young, and naive college students. Utilizing Leftist professors in prominent colleges, actors, comedians, social media, and peer pressure, Radical Leftists have convinced a significant number of young and impressionable people that responsibility is not expected or necessary and that Conservatives are stupid. In addition, Conservative opinions appears to have been suppressed in multiple media forms and on certain college campuses. Another group that supports Leftists are productive, sucessful people who have an idealistic outlook. The Democrat supporting minorities I’ve met at Toastmaster believe they are entitled to US Consitutional based rights to publically funded social programs under a “shared responsibility” philiosophy. I would venture the people I’ve met at that Toastmasters club are the upper echelon of their local community. Socialism does not work in the long run because people are not sufficiently incentivized to be productive. There are inevitable shortages of things, less ability to improve ones family living situation, and lost of independent thinking and problem solving skills. Over time, innovation suffers with negative implications of availability of resources as populations increase. Democratic political wins mean we step closer to Socialism and corresponding loss of economic and political freedom. In other words, Democratic political wins mean we the people lose in the long run. Figure it out and devote your energies to a more positive causes for you, your family, and the United States sake.
