Yeah...it's amazing what beating up press will get you nowadays. On the other hand, King's struggling in Northwest Iowa, so I suppose it'll work out.

I’m not exactly sure about the exports of individual US states, but doesn’t New Mexico already have a pretty big oil industry?

Why? I'm American and I draft most of the election threads on this board. It's to encourage debate and dialogue and all the rest. And if NSG ever really were that strong to influence American politics, God help us all.

Well if that was the case then we'd have to ban everyone who's not British from the UK thread, non-Israelis from the Israel thread, non-Kiwis from the NZ thread, non-Muslims/Christians from the IDT/CDT, etc...

Democrats have flipped a state house district in Bristol County, Massachusetts. Republicans now only have 31 seats in the lower chamber. I have a feeling 2020 is going to be a megatsunami

Nice even in safe blue states it's nice to pad the lead and run up the score in state legislatures.

He is a very flawed candidate and gives Lt Governor Mike Cooney a great chance to hold the governor's mansion for Democrats
