It will be very interesting to see how those reps try to differentiate themselves from the other 200 R reps who will be bringing the crazy.

Sorry, but midterms with a Democratic President are EXPECTED to go Republican. The House and Senate are supposed to go red.

So if it's close...

... that means Republicans have under-performed, because of abortion and their 2020 election denial.

And the only reason Democrats have not made history by retaining both chambers, or one, is because of global affairs (war in Ukraine and subsequent inflation). Not one head of state can reverse inflation by themselves. If the US had not lifted a finger, Ukraine would still not be producing grain this year and there would still be energy sanctions imposed on Russia.

We lost but it’s a close loss so we won is a hell of a message.

Oh well.

What does “tougher on crime” mean?

Only one party supported more funding to local police forces and it wasn't the GOP. Only one party wants to get some of the most lethal weaponry off our streets, and it isn't the GOP.

You'll only convince many of us when we don't have liberals in DA and other court positions who think it's fine to have low bail, cashless bail, and repeat criminals walking the streets to prey on innocent victims who are just trying to go about the business of living and get mugged, carjacked, raped, and murdered by those with a violent criminal history.

FL is gone.

Yup. Desantis won MIAMI DADE by 11 points, and that effort was years in the making. Dems elsewhere continue to underestimate how broad his appeal is to their detriment.

His margins are about the same as Rubios. This just tells me FL is now red.

Floridian here - Florida seems now red, but I don't think irrevocably so. We aren't Arkansas. It's a redder voting pool plus Florida Democrats are incompetent and terrible. Demmings was a good candidate - she should have run for governor instead of Senate. But overall we have zero game in this state. It's like we want to lose. Where are our Hispanic candidates? Where is our massive GOTV operation? Where is our campaigning? Where is our Hispanic outreach? Crist - again? I mean I voted for him because I thought he had a better chance than Nikki Fried but it's not like he was some exciting candidate with massive energy and appeal - he's a guy who'd already lost the governorship once before. I liked him as my MOC, and did not have high hopes about his race against DeSantis.

Hopefully, one day, Florida Dems will get our acts together - but that day wasn't yesterday.

Except maybe racists who are deliberately trying to pick the worst Bladk candidate they could find to make Black people look bad. His numbers make me super depressed about democracy. I absolutely don’t get it.
