With all the BS going on in DC, this (R) putz still got 45% ?

Add in the 2 districts in Florida that easily won, I don't care that
they won with less than half the margin that Meirda47 won 5 months ago,
these people can see the damage being done, that they feel let's continue to vote (R)?

The (R) party should had died years ago.

I blame Raygun & Faux news.

You've got to look at the whole 🏞 !

Considering how much 💰 💰 💰 Eloon was throwing around trying to buy that election, 45% is pathetic! He was passing out checks for a MILLION freaking dollars! If that's the best he could do, I'd say we're in pretty decent shape!

The people of Wisconsin have spoken, and what they said was "🖕Elon Musk!"

That means 45% don't care that our services are being stripped away right in front of our eyes.
This percentage should have been somewhere in the 20's
All they care about is power.

Come midterms, the (D)'s better have 60+ percent of the House & 55% of the Senate, otherwise
'We are screwed."

Seriously, though...I see this as a very positive sign. Eloon was SO sure he could make that election turn out however he wanted. He went to Wisconsin cocky, arrogant, and full of himself as ever ... and he LOST!

To me, seeing Eloon with that much egg on his face is a big win. Sure, it would be even better if the percentages were different, but ELOON LOST, and I think that's something to celebrate!

The fact that percentages were not weak enough for my taste, means that if we select the wrong candidate for any race we will lose.

I'm tired of pointing out to the MAGAt cult, that all the programs cut, will affect them in a negative way, but they just don't seem to care.
