[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Republicans have won six of nine special elections.[/b] If they are so unpopular, why are they generally gaining in vote registrations in so many states?[/quote] There have been 16 special elections held so far this year, both state legislative and congressional. Democrats have outperformed their margin of victory or defeat from the November elections (Trump/Harris) by about 11 points, overperforming in 14 of 16 of them. Republicans have largely won in deep red districts, but at significantly lower margins than Trump did, and we're not even 3 months into the Trump presidency. For instance, the democratic candidates lost Florida's 1st, but by 22 points less compared to Harris. They lost Florida's 6th by 16 points less than Harris did in November. In the Wisconsin state Supreme court race, Susan Crawford beat Schimel by 10 points, whereas Trump won by about 1 point in the fall. [/quote]
