American Politics VII: Virginia Reel

[Spirit of Hope]

Steven Mnuchin blocked Trump from installing Ivanka as President of the World Bank

She has the only qualifications that Trump appears to care about, a relationship with him and backing whatever he wants.

[Antipatros]

Fuck it. We should put Hunter Biden in as the President of the World Bank.

[The Reformed American Republic]

Expect them to lose the Senate.

"an internal poll from Masto's Republican opponent"

lmao

I'm a bit weary I admit, but wouldn't exaggerating that suppress their own voters? It kind of takes the urgency out of "we need to all come out and beat the Democrats."

Plus, bias does not always mean there is no truth to it. Not only that, but a 4 point lead in another poll is not enough to fill me with confidence.

I'm hardly a fool to be concerned.

A lot can change in a year.

Nevada polling is historically weird, though. It typically leans Republican in polling more than actual results.

Well, I hope so.

It’s perhaps the only state where early voting is indicative of outcome.

Indeed. You know it’s a bad idea when that guy blocked it.

I'm assuming it comes from the fast the state is basically all rural...except Las Vegas, the only thing making the state not Republican. So its hard to poll or something. I don't know, its been weird the last few elections, if not forever.

[Cannot think of a name]

a lot can change in a year. Right now Democrats lead by about 4 points on the generic ballot.

I'm actually surprised its that high.

Yeah but how much do democrats have to win by in order to actually have a majority? I feel like in today’s landscape Democrats winning by 4% means a Republican majority.

About 75 percent of the state population is in Clark County with anther ten being Washoe. Reno is the county seat of Washoe.

Probably does to be honest.

I don't even think we know yet, since new maps aren't done.

That will determine a lot. Here in New York Democrats are likely to draw a map that would give them all but three seats in Congress.

[The Jamesian Republic]

Fuck it. We should put Hunter Biden in as the President of the World Bank.

Do you know what will happen if the Trump crowd or Q crowd learns about this?

[San Lumen]

John Yarmuth chair of the budget committee will not seek re-election. This is a fairly safe Democratic district based around Louisville.

[Caleonia]

Probably does to be honest.

Indiana’s redistribution of districts ensures a Republican supermajority.

And Democrats are likely to increase their supermajority in both chambers in New York.

How about we size districts after number of actual ppl in them lol? Why is this so completely thoroughly corrupt lmfao?

I kinda hate that I'm okay with Democrats gerrymandering to counter Republican gerrymandering, until all gerrymandering gets stopped (Hopefully by passing the god damn voting rights bill that should have been passed months ago)

[Corrian]

That said, every state, if nobody actually passes the god damn voting rights bill, should work towards having independent redistricting commissions. They've passed in every state so far.

You can’t. Districts have to be roughly equal in population. One person one vote.

Steven Mnuchin blocked Trump from installing Ivanka as President of the World Bank

Sorry but that would’ve been an amazing comic relief side plot, I can’t forgive Mnuchin for taking that away from us even if it did probably save the world economy or whatever

[Kowani]

The current generic ballot tracker is 44% Dem-41% Rep

in order to beat Republican geographic bias, the Democrats need to win...around 51%

And Republicans on the committee in Virginia walked out throwing the maps to the state Supreme Court to draw.
