Democrat TJ Cox pulls ahead of Republican David Valadao in House race

https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/26/politics/democrat-california-house-race/index.html

Democrats have already smashed the record for biggest popular vote margin of victory in a midterm in US history. And with the recent trend of votes moving consistently in the favor of Democrats, that margin is expected to increase.

With this latest adjustment to one of the two outstanding Congressional races, Democrats are likely to flip a total of 40 seats in the House. That is the largest pickup for Democrats in a midterm since Watergate.

 

Much of the Republican loss in California was due to strong anti-Trump anger. Some of the GOP congressmen were moderates [pro-immigrant/ environmentalists]. All 7 congressmen opposed an endorsement/ visit from Trump and still lost.

 

Lock up the 39th seat for the Democrats.

Democrats win House race in New Mexico, have now gained 39 seats

 

The Dirty Donald tax cuts for the wealthy which also were targeting the Democrat states of NY,NJ,Mass,California which have high state taxes and real estate taxes,limiting these deductions to only $10,000 hit hard at the wealthy in California who are going to see tax increases in 2018 in part causing the loss of Red districts in California.

 

Not really. it was because of California's voting laws that favor Democrats, voter fraud and corruption that allows anyone to vote and even allows someone who has never registered to vote to register to vote on election day after the polls have already closed and then cast a vote at midnight after standing in line for four hours.

If only the votes that were cast at the polls were counted no Republican congressional district would have flipped from red to blue.

Soon to be registered to vote and cast their votes three hours after the polls have closed in Los Angeles County.

Those awful people - allowing folks to vote after waiting in line for four hours!

Don't forget those folks who kept jumping into their cars to change their costumes and then vote again!

 

How long does it take to count votes in california?

The public education system there must be as bad as it is miami florida

 

What's interesting most who were considered to be well informed were completely unaware that in California you now you can register to vote and vote after the polling places have closed on election day.

Now look at the photo and how many look like they were well informed and knew they were able to register and vote after the polls have closed ?

Were Democratic party operatives running around the barrios looking for anyone who wasn't registered to vote after the polls have closed ?

Would you actually stand in line for 4 freaking hours to vote at night ?

 

Sounds like a Great PLAN for PA, MI, and WI for 2020.

Hmmm...

 

I wonder if Libertarians still want open primaries after seeing what it did to California ?

 

It's becoming obvious that democrats urge ineligible people to vote on provisional ballot and then find a way to count those votes. We are losing our democracy and becoming as corrupt as the illegal voters that came here from corrupt shithole countries.

 

The only reason you think it is obvious is because you want to believe it is obvious.

Most Americans really hate trump and are willing to vote for any Democrat necessary to oppose him.

Deal with it and stop making up bullshit like that whiny snowflake of a bitch, Trump.

 

Are you referencing the jungle primaries that places the top two vote getters from the primary onto the general ballot?

I dont think any voting method is likely to result in a libertarian performing better. Maybe ranked choice or that system they are now using in North (?) Dakota?

 

It's just fact. In these democrat run counties where the democrats candidate loses they go to the provisional ballot pile and suddenly it's a huge turnaround and their candidate wins.

 

Yes

 

Would you like me to educate your voters on how to cast provisional ballots? Or I could grab you a tiny violin to play you a really sad song, if you prefer?

 

Or maybe accept the fact that illegal votes are being counted by corrupt democrats

 

You appear to think that provisional ballots are the same as illegal votes.

Do you also think that US soldiers casting votes over seas should not be allowed to vote?

 

What I think is illegal votes are being counted under the guise of provisional ballots. What I think is corrupt democrats are finding ways to do this with provisional ballot like when they were "accidently" mixed in with regular ballots in Florida.

 

Your thoughts are based on conspiratorial ravings and zero evidence.

 

Some posters use the most crude/ illogical excuse to deny reality. Like Trump himself, it is OK to intentionally distort/ lie for these Republicans and reminds me of fascism/ dangerously hysterical people. Pathetic, I am reminded of angry middle school kids claiming the referee/ umpire was against their team and the game was stolen.

 

Are you denying provisional ballots in Florida got mixed in with legitimate ballots?

 

Just a coincidenc these provional ballots break amazingly heavy to democrats I guess.

 

Provisional ballots ARE legitimate ballots.

 

The entire 2018 midterms broke amazingly heavy for democrats.
