I think the failure is by being soft on crime. The cities in trouble have liberal DAs. Mayors from many cities, who are Dems, are asking for help bc criminals are let right back out. There is a reason many places are trying to get rid of liberal DAs.

The sentencing in the US isn't more lenient than most developed countries though, and you have more people per capita in prison than anywhere. 3 times the incarceration rate of here in Australia. You have a shockingly low clearance rate for homicide cases for a developed country though. Only around half your murders have convictions compared to 90% plus in other developed nations.
This isn't limited to cities either, and your worst states are Georgia, Maryland, Illinois, Tennessee, Alabama, South Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri and Louisiana. How many of those have lenient legislation or Democrat administration?
You had decades of "tough on crime" and "war on drugs" policies from both you major parties, and your rates are still comparable to those of undeveloped or developing nations.
 
Boebert looks like she is going to pull this off. I'm glad it was closer than people expected but who are the people that live there? They must be dumb as fuck, she said she's in support of the country being led by the church. The only explanation is that people in that area support that. Sick people, add that to the list of places to never visit.

I don’t know anymore… I keep hearing and seeing different things.

Herschel is like an RPG character that has all his points in strength, dexterity, and constitution, but left intelligence and speech at bare minimum. I wouldn't count on him making that decision on his own accord. Maybe his handlers will know better, maybe not.

This would all apply to Fetterman.

i haven't followed too closely over the years but it always seems like a smoke show to me. If the dems want a shot they need to pull from the GOP playbook and start pushing local elections and build up from there. These Beto hailmarys aren't going to work.
 
depressing that bobert gets so much votes.
but its just more vote for team, not for the people

Some states start counting mail-in ballots as they're received, some wait until election day, some wait until after the polls close, and some continue counting them even if received after election day, so long as they are post-marked by a certain date. This has been explained numerous times.

I know this part, there should be a sufficient way to do this some states are good at that. Maricopa county saying they done still next week and have a lot to count. It doesn’t help their machines and printers malfunctioned lol . As a Arizonan I’m disappointed

Fetterman is a Harvard graduate who recently suffered from a stroke. What an awful comparison.

...who can't understand words spoken to him.

Hershel Walker is a college graduate as well.

College degrees are worthless as signs of intelligence, and some of the dumbest and arrogant people I've ever met have masters degrees.

Looks like Boebert might avoid the monumental upset

relax. they cured a bunch of ballots. boebert is barely up anything. tomorrow is when it gets decided when they finish up with mesa, pueblo, garfield, and pueblo counties.

Fetterman has a masters degree in public policy. He actually knows his shit. This is an awful partisan false equivalency you're trying to make and it isn't going to work. Walker was picked to appeal to people because of his football background and his name recognition, same with Dr. Oz. Stop comparing people who actually studied laws and policy and worked in government with celebrities. I think your smarter than this but you're hardcore team partisanship is getting in the way of you using your brain.
