2019 US Election - What you need to know!

My state. *thumps fist to chest* I voted for this today.

Virginia - Dems win control of House and Senate.

Also in Virginia: Woman who was fired for flipping off Trump won an election from a Republican.. It's a local county office, but everyone starts somewhere.

A good night for the Dems indeed. I find it funny how Kentucky conservatives had issues with Bevin but support Trump. Bevin was pretty much Trump Jr. I knew Bevin's uncle, I think it was his uncle. No where near the douchebag Bevin is.

Virginia is getting pretty blue. And this matters as it appears that the black face and what not didn't stall Democrat momentum in Virginia.

All that said, it appears that Dems are still energized. This doesn't mean 2020 is a shoe-in. But it certainly wasn't a great sign for the GOP.

It looks like Democrats did well in many races other than Kentucky and Virginia. New jersey and Pennsylvania. Maine is getting expanded Medicare. The suburbs spoke and they said no to the GOP in many races.

No tears shed, the jerks deserve it.

I really think that was because he insisted on making Trump his platform when Kentuckians wanted to hear about healthcare, jobs, etc., and he didn't give that to them.

So happy about this. and it's not just pretty blue. We're deep blue right now.

Yep, not a shoe-in. Can't get lazy or complacent. I really think it's because Dems are speaking to human needs, jobs, healthcare, stuff that affects them directly regardless of how zealous they are about Trump.
