Oh yeah this was a big red wave

Now the county will find out. Our credit rating should be reduced soon

As I said on another thread a while ago the Democratic Party has not in the past and does not currently do a good job reaching out to Latinos or focusing on issues that matter to Latinos when they are in office. This failure has left this group open to predatory tactics by the republicans (Bush actually seemed to want to accomplish some meaningful goals with respect to Latinos).

Polls weren't really that wrong it seems.

Nate silver (ugh) was right that the swings would largely go all together.

But honestly what is the Democrat party now? It's gotta change.

I guess most were within the MOE. Iowa was not, which I feel is what really kickstarted the Hopium here.

I don't think we'll see a woman come out of the Dem primary anytime soon unfortunately.

Oh, I think we might have a variety of Dem candidates. The Putins of the world always need wilting competition, and what’s better than one’s that occasionally stir the soul of small and defined groups? What I don’t think we’ll see is a free and fair election for the remainder of most of our lives (to be clear, I think this was a legit election).

The polls were wrong.

There is no change possible. Trump has promised everything. You can't compete with that. You just have to wait until it all falls apart and then try to pick up the pieces, if we're ever allowed.

Hopefully the Mid Terms will be a big plus

I think that's the thing. People naturally cling to the polls they like and reject the polls they don't. But in general the polls did a pretty decent job. Not as good as the betting markets but still pretty good.

There’s also the idea that a bunch of Biden supporters just sat out the election. I wonder how many “likely voters” told pollsters that they would vote and then didn’t feel the need.

Not even an idea - Trump is getting fairly the same # of votes as last time. Harris dropped off massively from Biden. People stayed home.
