Elections 2022 Mid-term Elections PBP

[Lead]

Wont be surprised if House and Senate both go majority Dem.

How confident are you the house will stay blue?

Some sleeper Gov races to watch are NY, MI, OR, NV, and NM, who all have democrats currently and could fall to the wave.

I don’t think all will, but I think at least 2 will flip

I think OR will for sure because how crappy Portland is and how extreme the state has been. A lot of guess work from me on that though. NY will be interesting and maybe MI, I don’t think NM and NV will flip as they are lighter blue and haven’t gone full crazy blue yet

Also, how the hell did Trumps campaign miss the idea of changing the song in the OP from “Jump” to “Trump” and “let me clear my throat” to “let get your vote”. That would be a rally banger but I bet those guys wouldn’t want to okay it’s use.

Well it will be very interesting, because as they pointed out, main reason the republican might win is because of the indie getting a good share of votes. It would create an amazing dynamic in the state that would most certainly lead to daily protests in Portland for the next 4 years lol

I want a red wave, but Im just seeing red flags.

I would love to be wrong

I say Kari Lake will likely win Arizona Governor race.

Will that have any impact of the Senate race in Arizona?

I’m not nearly as optimistic as some other conservatives seem to be. Yes we will take back the house. But we may not take back the senate. However, TX and FL will definitely keep their governors and that’s what matters most to me.

Common sense governors and a house that can stop Biden and his scumbag partners in congress? That will be fantastic.

I think they are still protesting will a lot of antifa activity I should say. Yea if it flips it’s only because of the flip vote.

Maybe, Blake Masters is in a statistical tie with Mark Kelly.

Super. Reps are senile oligarchs and populists supporting only very rich ppl! and Putin& Russia and dreaming to sanction China....
Dems: senile dreamers.
So if you want to have higher unemployment and prices....vote for Donald.
you aren't human for him.

If 34 states elect Republicans governors they can have a constitutional convention.

Finalizing an amendment though would require way more so merely having a convention wouldn’t mean much. Kinda like the senate majority that doesn’t surpass the filibuster. Limited in scope.

Pretty sure amendments require a 3/4th vote in Congress.

So is basically a fantasy in reality.

Yea, you could technically call the convention but then nothing would pass during it and even if you had enough support, there’s always concerns about more amendments being proposed then initially agreed upon. Still, that’s high enough that in this climate, nothing is going through.

Did the dems purposefully keep Kamala off the campaign trails?? Didn't hear much of her going to support candidates.

Initial google shows she did a rally for an AG candidate in MA which I doubt is competitive, a BET interview and an article saying a tour for women on different ballots which I can’t find a huge list for. I think they’ve had Obama and Biden tour more at this point.

GOP takes the house but by a lesser margin than expected. Senate stays about the same. Thats what I think.

 

[Ares Black]

Humble predictions:

House turns GOP
Senate stays Dem
