Unless, of course, they start voting from the rooftops. Which is still a strong possibility.

Yeah I would, you probably don't understand it anyway.

Hard to imagine that moron a senator but win or lose the democrats retain control of the senate.
It's amazing that the U.S. population has been so dumbed down that so many support the likes of Walker, MGT, Boebert, Goetz et al.

Frightening really. It's all about "owning the libs" even if half the time they are cutting their noses off to spite their faces.

With Herschel Walker, the Stupidity Is the Point
Republicans' chief requirement for Georgia's Senate seat was someone who'd vote with them no matter what. Walker fits the bill.

Decent read and oh so true.

Pardon my ignorance of US politics, but this means Trump would be very dumb to run for president again?

Oh wait.

Only one reason he is thinking of running again. To keep out of jail.

51 - Might work out well for Warnock if the Dems will show up to vote a second time.

• Herschel Walker has a problem: Kemp’s not on the December ballot

Georgia Republican Senate candidate Herschel Walker has a Kemp problem: Gov. Brian Kemp, a fellow Republican who rolled to a big victory in Tuesday’s midterms, won’t be on the ballot in next month’s Senate runoff election.

That’s a big issue for Walker, who should have been helped by Kemp’s presence on the ballot on Tuesday.

Kemp easily topped the 50 percent threshold in his reelection effort against Stacey Abrams, while Walker finished a little more than 48,000 votes behind Sen. Raphael Warnock (D), with neither getting above 50 percent.

Kemp outran Walker by 210,000 votes, putting the GOP Senate candidate behind the eight ball heading into the runoff.

“Given the events of this week, he starts as an underdog,” said one GOP operative involved in the midterms, who listed Kemp’s absence as a big problem for Walker.

While Kemp is not on the ticket, he is by no means sitting the race out.

Last week, the governor loaned his formidable political apparatus to the Senate Leadership Fund, a group run by allies of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

Under the deal struck between the two sides, the governor will temporarily hand over his door-knocking, data analytics, phone-banking and microtargeting program to the McConnell group, which will bankroll the operation at a cost north of $2 million.

Sorry to be a dufus, but what is the bottom line here? Have the Dems retained control of both Houses, or just the Senate?

GOP will get the House by small majority pending a big swing in remaining few votes.

^^ not a dufus.

Senate will be held by the Dems with 50 (to date) senators. Harris will be the 51st vote to break a tie.

Would be better if Warnock was the 51st in case a Dem got out of line and voted with the republicans (50 - 50). Harris would break that tie.

House will go to the Republicans but not by much.

So much for the red wave you bleated on about for months. Just another of the many things you were wrong about.



Ukraine's aid packages will continue to flow, along with Sabang and Russia's whining.

Yup . . .

Republicans win U.S. House majority, setting stage for divided government

Yes. Hopefully including the long distance HIMARS rockets. That Kerch bridge needs to go down completely. Still some supplies get through.

Werewolves? Vampires? Is this the latest QAnon thing?

Kari Lake uses the word 'disenfranchised' so ften without realising her supporters think she's talking about McDonalds

Looks like Pima County came through for Katie Hobbs.

In case? What cave have you been in?

According to CQ Roll Call, Manchin voted against his party’s majority 38.5% of the time last year, while Sinema did so for 33.1% of the votes. Democratic Sen. Doug Jones of Alabama, who lost his reelection race in November to Republican Tommy Tuberville, was third at 32.2%.

^Still upset
