Republican Randy Fine, a state senator, defeated Democrat and teacher Josh Weil in a special election that attracted national attention and millions of dollars. Leftist candidate Josh Weil raised almost 10 times as much money as Fine; however, with the votes counted Randy Fine won by 14 points [DATA].
Republican Jimmy Patronis also won a special election to hold this panhandle-based seat for the GOP. The seat was formerly occupied by Matt Gaetz. Patronis defeated Democrat Gay Valimont, who was also the party’s nominee in the 2024 general election. Patronis also won by 14 points [DATA].
Media and political punditry are noticing that neither district was won at the same margin as President Trump (roughly +30 points). As the narrative is spun by Leftists and their professional GOPe allies, the closer margin indicates doom for republicans in the mid-term 2026 election.
BOTH FLORIDA HOUSE SEATS HAVE BEEN WON, BIG, BY THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE. THE TRUMP ENDORSEMENT, AS ALWAYS, PROVED FAR GREATER THAN THE DEMOCRATS FORCES OF EVIL. CONGRATULATIONS TO AMERICA!!! ~ President Donald Trump
TY YaHaWaHa
Great news!
The SC loss in WI stings a little bit, however the win on Voter ID balances it out a hair.
Regardless, with the one loss of the SC, and potential future impact on control of the house in 2026, makes yesterdays Anna Paulina Luna antic all the worse. The clock is running & she’s throwing childish tantrums for selfish purposes. We don’t have time for games & can’t tolerate anybody not focused on the mission at hand, She’s playing with American lives & Needs To Go!
Agreed, and also preventing a House floor vote planned this week on the No Rogue Rulings Act introduced and led by Rep. Darrell Issa.
Didn’t Luna recently pair up with AOC to push a bill about credit card company interest charges?
False. Community Noted on X: Speaker Johnson voluntarily decided to cancel votes for the rest of the week. There is nothing stopping the Speaker from putting up bills up for a vote. He would just need to a new rule vote which can happen at any time.
“Anna Paulina came up via the new right / turning point system. You don’t understand anything if you’re siding with Chip Roy (he gave a speech saying Trump should have been impeached for J6) and Mike Johnson (blank check for Ukraine criminals).”
https://x.com/Cernovich/status/1907211341007339789
If the “new right” means self entitled mommies working from home, and putting their personal needs ahead of the country, then the “new right” has some issues.
Suggestion to APL: If you want to run for Congress either use a condom or get a baby sitter. There’s a new standard in DC now: show up for work!
Luna posted on X that Speaker Johnson “didn’t have to send us home.” I thought her whole point was she wanted to work from home.
PROXY VOTING IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. If you run for congress, you MUST be present to vote.
🎯
She’s a Rhino I fear.
Don’t worry, she is essentially gone. She is my rep and it is increasingly purple so this pretty much sealed the deal that she is gone. Talk about a disappointing pick. With everything that is needed to be done she pulls this selfish crap.
“Increasingly purple?” She won by more in 2024 than 2022. Trump won by more in 2024 than 2020. Desantis won by more in 2022 than 2018.
The more supposedly purple it gets, the more Republicans win. Or someone doesn’t like her.
Kevin, do you live here? I do. She is not liked. Neither is DeSantis. Both did well due to DJT endorsements. That won’t fly this time. DS is out due to term limits..I suspect she won’t be primaried but will lose to the Dem this time out. Book it. And I was a HUGE supporter and gave to her campaigns both times. Now she is proving another waste/kabuki actor who will not garner enough enthusiasm to get out the next vote
I live here, DeSantis is definitely over, term limits, shelf life, shenanigans etc… way too soon to make the call on Luna.
This will be her undoing…I have called her office and emailed several times on other issues with NO RESPONSE. She is not listening to her constituents…She definitely started out OK but now she has really tarnished herself. JMHO. I hope someone steps up and primaries her that is decent or we will get a D in there…
“,…if you ignore the voice of your people, we can not help you.”
She is reminding me of Gaetz, call her “Matt Gaetz in a skirt” as she is a grandstander and a bomb thrower, and all about herself; does not play well with others
Luna-tic.
Yep. I have reached out several times regarding H1B visa’s and tried to get an appointment. No one in Congress seems to even be aware of it. Not a return, nothing. The stunt she pulled yesterday was very very bad. Then she topped it with the JFK show and the important trip to Dallas that none of us got any info how our tax dollars were used…she is now Matt’s twin
I live in florida and I like DeSantis as FL Governor. He’s done a great job here.
You must be a fan of smoke and mirrors.
Rhonda has managed to make both sides loathe him…the legislature (Republican) hate him and at this point refuse to do anything he is trying to push…he run/stunt for President made him a lame duck since March primaries
How could you have beer so easily fooled ?
People who visit this CTH site, in my opinion, are smarter and better informed than the average.
You apparently have brought that average down a few points.
Whatever Luna is she is far better than a Democrat. Not voting for her and losing the seat puts the Dems one seat closer to getting the majority and impeaching Trump again. Wake up.
Michele
Are people in your district giving her what for? Hope so. She needs to be severly reprimanded.
The win on voter ID in WI is dead in arrival with a far-left state supreme court.
Not so. The Voter ID is an amendment to the State Constitution. That was the entire point – it puts it outside any possible review by the WI Supreme Court or any machinations by the Governor.
We wish. They will just say it violates the US Constitution. Magic word racism. Like the magic word asylum.
I don’t think so, but i appreciate your concern…..
lulz at thinking a bunch of entitled judges will not just overrule it as they see fit.
Amendment 2 in Colorado enters the chat.
Tony: You still didn’t get it, did you? Censorship is against the law. Gun control is most certainly against the law—shall not be infringed. Changing the way people vote without the state legislature is totally against the law. And yet, here we are…
It is a fatal error to idolize warm-sounding ideals disconnected from political reality.
The left does not care about the Constitution, state or federal. Never did.
When you have already said that you support murdering babies, which is against God’s law, what does man’s law matter? The liberal left is ultimately driven by the father of all liars and murderers. To paraphrase the Bible – when a man says in his heart there is no God, he is a fool.
God said it and I’m sitting here watching these liberals prove Him SO VERY RIGHT!!!
When in the process the voters approve then it is ratified!!!
I seem to remember that time CA voters did the same with marriage with Prop 8. It was gone in no time, thanks to GWB’s former solicitor general taking it to the SC and getting it and all others like it thrown out.
💯
EXACTLY
If the federal SAVE Act passes or gets included into some other law that passes then state courts won’t have a say on voter ID in any federal elections.
https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/22
There are appropriate ways to champion your cause (bill) and express discontent. Siding with the Dems is never one of them.
Please primary Luna, FL friends.
This stings a lot! The winner here is going to re-disctrict ensuring wins for the dems going forward.
Not to mention, how are people voting for such radicals? Maybe b/c they watch TV and see ads and believe them.
That is so infuriating.
If so, there will be two new districts in WI to focus targeted voter registration efforts in. The defeatist attitude is what stings.
Agree.
Maybe it’s the same as it’s always been…Milwaukee and Madison…Liberal shytholes
You can’t convince self-centered people to not be self centered. They have a party always ready to lick their boots and promise nonsense, and those voters will die to promote it. Democracy is its own worst enemy.
Until our educational principles are reformed our days are numbered.
Or vote fraud.
I wouldn’t be too excited. Devil is in the details. What is considered proper ID for voting? Whenever there is an issue, a provisional ballot is cast, and who knows what happens to them. Additionally, how could this pass by such a large measure when the Republican candidate couldn’t win? Doesn’t jive in my book.
I think it passed because the question was worded in such an easily understandable way. Unlike when a liberal puts out a resolution!
When the low info people see how they were lied to by Crawford maybe they’ll get riled enough to mount a recall.
One can only hope.
What is considered proper ID for voting?
At the polls, Wisconsin voters are required to present a valid photo ID, such as a driver’s license, U.S. passport or military ID card. Absentee voters are required to have a copy of their ID on file with their local clerk.
Whenever there is an issue, a provisional ballot is cast, and who knows what happens to them
Voters without a photo ID can still cast a provisional ballot on Election Day. They must then provide poll workers with their ID by 8 p.m. on Election Day or show their ID to their local clerk by 4 p.m. on the Friday after the election.
https://www.tmj4.com/america-votes/voters-approve-amendment-to-cement-voter-id-in-wisconsin-constitution
They have a VERY SPECIFIC definition and listed valid IDs in the Ammendment.
How does that work for mail-in ballots?
voter fraud in WI, 100k votes for court then voter ID. This is just like in MI in 2020 when only the prez and maybe the senate candidates got votes and everything else was blank….dodge needs to investigate. Also, in fraudville (milwaukee) they kept observers out….this also needs to be investigated and challenaged.
Watch the WI SC quickly convene and attempt to invalidate the ID election law.
In just 3,2,1…
They cannot do so. It is NOW OFFICIALLY in the Wisconsin State Constitution.
There is some consolation also from the idea that there are only so many districts in WI and many are filled with minorities and Lavor Union people who have shown a real interest in supporting DJT’s policies. This can only help in a redistricting because volume of votes is the key to winning… anywhere.
WI, like MI, is well known for election fraud and has yet to explain how >8 counties ran out of ballots. I’m going to bet that those counties leaned Republican. Many people were turned away. And how did an amendment pass requiring voter ID favored by Republicans with >61% of the vote, but Crawford beat Schimel 57 – 43%? It doesn’t pass the smell test…
The loss in Wisconsin in the court is devastating. This is being ignored by everyone except the man who can fix this: JAY VALENTINE AT OMEGA4AMERICA!! We will continue to lose unless his team is involved in ALL races!!
And why would anyone accept the results from WI when there is no reason to assume their voter rolls are better than EVERY SINGLE STATE LOOKED AT SO FAR which are not just a little bit bad but are (in the case of my state) thousands of times worse than our laws allow for a legal election! The elected officials who got elected under this system are understandably unwilling to discuss the blatant illegality, but it’s still blatant.
Not to mention the election machines that WI uses which Elon Musk as well as the President said are part of election fraud.
Why do we waste time discussing Democrat strategy and ignore the elephant in the room – that whoever runs the fraud will win whatever they want to win and we can’t stop it until we’re willing to stop the fraud??
Don’t the members of congress already have free child care?
Luna just ruined a lot of trust she had developed. This was a major strategic blunder.
What I’m worried about is some leftist judge might overturn the voter ID victory. In CA we worked so hard to pass a law that kept marriage between one man and one woman only to have one gay judge overturn the will of the voters with the stroke of a pen.
I think Luna may be a RINO.That being said, Speaker Johnson could have made another rule and brought the vote for the Issa bill but he chose to delay.
Did anyone else see the fox news headline that said repubs won both Florida races by narrow margines ?
I am sure Murdoch owned Faux News and the WSJ will be pushing this narrative non-stop.
14-15 point victories in both FL races is a solid result, given the fact that D’s raised 10X+ the amount of $$ raised by both R candidates.
Solid win in WI for voter ID.
The loss of the WI Supreme Court seat contest is a loss. But it was held by a D, and WI is a blue-purple state.
The state can redistric ( gerrymander ) and eliminate two red spots and the blue SC will up hold the change.
No – the State SC will LEAD. the redistricting charge.
Thank you, Oleollo,, JenL, Gary, ShainS, MOB, and Lawrence Bucar. It was good reading this morning.
15 is a very solid number given that these were highly contested open seats — both newcomers (non incumbents) against a highly engaged Dem party. This is how it always goes. Running as incumbents in 2026, both will add probably 10 more points to tally.
15% is yuuuge in a 2025 election.
Kamala would have given a truckload of her favorite Chardonnay to have even a third of it!
It gets worse for the WI SC over the next few years. It’s my understanding that two more republican SC seats are up for election, one in 2026 and one in 2027. I would not expect the republicans to keep those seats. The democrats just mop the floor with WI SC republicans. They have no chance. The GOP can spend a billion dollars on those races. It won’t matter.
Also concerning is how radical left and stupid the democrat SC nominees are. These are not your grandpa’s democrats. They are hard-core Maoists. If you think these federal judges are getting crazy, just watch the crap that flows out of WI over the next few years.
Sadly, Madison is RED, Communist Red, and Crawford was a judge in Dane county, where Madison is located. I’m sure the vote margin in Dane and Milwaukee Counties will be greater than the margin of victory for Susan Crawford. Wisconsin is quite red but not in Marxist Madison and Leftist Milwaukee.
The win by wide margins, for both Voter I.D. AND the Dem Judge confirms what election integrity advocates have long maintained; that election integrity is NOT a Dem/Rep issue, and that most Democrat VOTERS support it, and do NOT buy the BS put out by Dem politicians, that its rasssscccciiist.
Also seems to indicate most Dem voters, don’t support cheating, in order for ‘their side’ to win an election.
It is also filled with “FIFI’s”…
Freakin’ idiots from Illinois.
As I am fairly new to this, could someone please explain to me why there is so much gnashing of teeth over the Supreme Court loss in WI?
I guess the Supreme Court is in charge of creating confessional districts there. Seems odd but it’s Wiski.
I’ll briefly clarify the “redistricting battle” for non-Wisconsinites.
It is technically our useless RINO state legislature (now with less of a RINO majority than before) who is in charge of creating the congressional districts.
However, the Governor (currently “Tyrant Tony” Evers) has the power to veto any map that our useless RINO legislature supports.
So, it basically plays out like this: 1) Useless RINO legislature supports Map A. 2) Democrat Governor vetoes Map A and proposes Map B. 3) Useless RINO legislature refuses to adopt Map B. 4) Courts get involved and ultimately determine what happens with the maps. This usually means that a Map C gets adopted, which is basically Map B but the Dems still bitch about it anyway because it isn’t Map B.
But with our State Supreme Court now being controlled by loony far-left activist women, they will now demand that nothing short of far-left gerrymandered maps be enacted and federal courts will refrain from getting involved with a “State-level issue”. Thus, our districts will now be far-left gerrymandered.
On a federal level, this means that Republicans will for sure lose two House seats (as District 3 in Western WI and District 1 in Southeastern WI will both be gerrymandered to the Dems in addition to the Madison and Milwaukee seats that they already get).
On a state level, this means that districts will probably get gerrymandered to the point that Democrats could gain control of the state legislature for the first time since 2010. At that point, we will be Minnesota (and a lost cause).
Even if we’d miraculously get a Republican governor in 2026 and keep control of the legislature, the activist court would just deem any map that they both agreed to that wasn’t hardcore gerrymandered toward leftists to be “unconstitutional” based on it not allowing leftists to retain their newfound gerrymandered power.
But hey, at least they can’t take away voter ID… But I fear that its a moot point because they can still harvest and count fraudulent ballots all the same, and our activist court will only keep making election fraud easier to do.
Maybe they’ll eventually pull a France/Brazil and ban/jail their political opponents in the name of “saving democracy”.
Well said! You are right about everything. It’s sad but true.
Stay here a little and you will read constant reports of judicial activism at both state and federal levels that only seem to have the sc to hold them in check.
It’s a substantial loss, IMHO, but not surprising. Wisconsin has continued the slide toward leftism over the last thirty years and is now likely to look like Minnesota each election.
It has to do with “the redistricting of congressional maps” (1:35 into the video):
The excellent explanation by GM, as well as js pointing out the same “play” being tried in Ohio, …what we are seeing is one part of how they “paint” these States Blue, that really aren’t.
Its a massive deception, and they have made it nearly impossible to have objectively varifiable data to refute the false narrative of “,….America is a 50/50 nation, with slightly more voting Dem.”
Opinion polls, worthless.
Voter rolls, based on registration equally worthless.
Even though we here view Fox as Faux, it still has the image of being “the Conservative alternative” and this quarter Fox News is breaking all records for viewership, even as all its openly liberal competion continue to sink.
Snow White bombed at the Box office, and top 2 movies were “Conservative”.
We America are a center right country, always have been, and the extreme liberalisn they are trying to shove down our throats, is effectively moving us from Center/Right, to Right/Right.
Conservative judges seem to be more ‘constitutional’….
The loss makes the balance 3 conservative judges to 4 liberal judges.
Crawford is reported to be very, very, liberal.
Randy Fine is a hold your nose and vote for him kind of candidate. He’s a jerk but the other guy is off the rails liberal.
In Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election disappointingly but not surprising Dem Crawford won and as is being reported a 5-4 court approved redistricting will hand two seats now held by Republicans to the odious Dems in 2026.
This makes the great news out of Florida even more significant.
Can’t rest and can’t stop fighting, fighting, fighting…one battle at a time for the soul of our nation.
As to that DEM “WIN”…
Tom Fitton has just tweeted that the vote ” for” voter ID in Wisconson garnered approximately 145,000 MORE votes than did Crawford who was called the victor for the SC.
So it seems that 145,000 people marked their ballots approving voter ID but either did not vote for Schimel or left that box unmarked?
Ah, the stench of “something’s not right here” in the morning.
Not necessarily ballot mischief. In my area when judges go on the ballot most know little to nothing about the judges and many skip the judges on the ballot.
“. . . most know little to nothing . . .” Sums up things pretty well.
I could see that for local judges…but surely not with SC judges.
There were only two. With political advertising blanketing the state like a winter snow storm?
I am finding it not plausible, Mako.
Those who know it’s vital for voter ID I would think would be well informed about those running for the SC.
The DEMS spent millions of dollars on the SC race, mostly targeting Musk, and abortion.
The abortion angle was likely a major factor in the results.
It guaranteed an enormous turnout in Madison. Would be interested to know how suburban women in the Milwaukee area turned out and voted.
I think you already know the answer to that.
Or, maybe this confirms what election integrity advocates have maintained all along; Election integrity, for the voters, is NOT a partisan issue.
Apperently many Dem voters had no problem voting for the Dem Judge (and I don’t believe this was like the typical Judge election, with such attention voters KNEW what they were voting for .
And no, if they were going to stuff the ballot, to get their lefty Judge in, why not defeat the voter I.D. amendment, while your at it?
Wisconsin is full of those from IL…who bring their politics with them.
I thought they were 4-3…My bad (upthread)…

I think this Florida result is nice but the Wisconsin debacle is a wake-up call for MAGA! No time to be complacent about GOP low voter turnout in Wisconsin!
So I see this poor WI GOP turnout result and the judicial overreach are the 2 big challenges we face now
How many times to Republicans need to be awakened? Voting every four years, and not staying on top of the issues isn’t going to cut it.
The true motive for WI dem leadership in this election may have been redistricting of congressional maps but the top of mind created for dem voters was abortion.
The Wisconsin dem
People I spoke to were obsessed with killing babies, no talk of congressional redistricting
Precisely
No political movement is going to thwart human selfishness. Abortion has been THE hot potato that continues to rile the public thanks to Roe getting dumped. It was both a blessing but a curse politically.
When another D gets in the WH the retribution will make Obama look reserved. The Rs have no comparable will, plan or money. They don’t know who they really are and get derailed over anything. They can’t compete with Ds on selfish proposals but aren’t godly enough to have any real prayer power. They can be noisy for the good but it doesn’t result in reform.
I just praise God for the comparatively semi-sane majority, as frustrating and unproductive as it is.
So here is a question, we lost a PA special election (that DJT won) and an important WI SC judge where DJT won big..but no one is even questioning election integrity? I don’t see or hear a word about it…I am also waiting for any “arrests” that were threatened for the 2024 by DJT who said everything was being “watched”. Or is that no longer a thing…
Redeagle analysis was that the dem 10 point win in wi is just too big, fraud could not be responsible to explain big Dem turnout in Dane county
They ran out of ballots in several places in WI and I think shenanigans did happen.WI just overwhelmingly voted for voter ID and then don’t show up for the Republican in this race? I don’t buy it.Also the Democrats approval rating is underwater.
this is what I don’t get? they cheated in pretty much every single election. And not one question or even whisper from ANYONE on our side about fraud? nothing? what is up with that
29% turnout in PA. When the dust settles, you will see that abortion drove the result in WI.
Historically, off year elections trend against the party holding the WH, and it works both ways. The Tea Party triumph took place in 2010 (Obama’s first term off year election), and the Dems took power in 2018 (Trump’s first term off year election).
To put it quite simply, off year elections are determined by turnout, and complacency on the part of the party holding the WH tends to be decisive.
The mass numbers of women who worship abortion will never change or be defeated. God has left the country and baby killing and pedophilia has taken his place along with money.
I think it may have been easier for musk to help in PA in November than in WI last night bc PA requires party identification of voters but WI does not,
this is my interpretation from listening to redeagle voting return analysis
Wisconsin had same day registration; you can drive in, register, vote and be back in your home State by dinner.
“Media and political punditry are noticing that neither district was won at the same margin as President Trump (roughly +30 points). ”
Turnout, turnout, turnout!!!
Republicans simply need to show up in Nov 2024 numbers in off-cycle elections — then every election would be near Trump’s margins.
Well maybe…but it used to be said that “Republicans” were the civic-minded voters who “showed up” in off-cycle elections, at least that was the punditry in my hay day.
Perhaps, just maybe, if the GOP ran (or let run, or stayed out of the way of) actual MAGA candidates who are authentic patriots, then voters would show their support. Just MHO.
Three out of four and we’re upset? Including constitutionally protected voter ID winning with 63%? In WI?
And we’re worried what the lying s-bag media says? My goodness, chill out, people.
If voter ID wins with 63% in WI, that should be the next bill out of Congress making it a nationwide law. Not just proof of citizenship, proof of identity. And end drop boxes while you’re at it. Run in 2026 on locking down the DOGE cuts, election integrity, accelerating deportations, cutting federal courts, and massive cuts to the Federal workforce.
Now, the lazy Congress is another matter. In 2017-18 we had to watch a traitorous Paul Ryan and traitorous John McCain prove that every GOP promise of the prior 30 years was a lie. No Obamacare repeal, no widespread deportation programs, they helped Democrats execute their attempted coup d’etat, and then Ryan threw the 2018 midterms to help Pelosi become speaker so they could impeach Trump. (in a year when the GOP gained Senate seats).
THAT is a huge problem, and is the GOP House taking the week off simply to stall Trump? There’s zero reason to take the week off. And if Luna wants to put herself before her country, pull her committee assignments, and get back to work.
“Work from home” is a disaster and everyone knows it.
Easy. But Johnson didn’t do that. He gave them a week off after a 2-week (?) recess.
Obviously, you don’t live in Wisconsin. If you did, you’d know what for Marxist woemn on the state supreme court can do to destroy our state.
I live in Colorado, spare me the lectures.
We need to keep up support of efforts to defund all of these government “programs” which are nothing more than NGO feeders (think USAID) that kick money back into democrat initiatives and candidacies.
They cannot get far at all without lots of money, specifically public money, because only a vocal 10-15% of the country supports their lunacy – but they cast a much bigger shadow when they have free access to public funds. The democrats are on the street every day now squealing like stuck pigs about this “agency” and that “commission” being shut down, because they know their funding pipeline is drying up, and they don’t like it one damn bit.
Great for Florida, but these seats won’t mean much when the socialists get their way in Wisconsin. The results up there were predetermined.
But the GOP has lost Wisconsin through its own incompetence. When the WI Supreme court
redrawsgerrymanders the districts, the GOP will lose two seats. The vote for voter ID is meaningless when the same voters also vote for a hard left judge who will neuter any attempt to enforce voter ID.Scott Presler raised a lot of money and got all the headlines, but it was all for naught. The Democrats used their huge reservoir of illegal mail-in ballots to win the important race – the swing vote on the WI Supreme court. Omega4America has been demonstrating that the voter rolls in swing states are loaded with hundreds of thousands of voters registered at non-residential addresses who always vote mail-in and always vote Democrat. But the GOP ignores Omega while GOP election consultants make out like bandits no matter who wins.

Here in NC we had a constitutional amendment requiring voter ID. The liberal supreme court first ruled that the enabling legislation was against the NC constitution. That kept the amendment from being enforced for a while. Later, the court said the legislature that put the amendment on the ballot was gerrymandered and therefore illegitimate, and that the amendment was therefore illegitimate even though approved by the voters. That was breathtaking usurpation, but I believe that is what will also happen in Wisconsin. It was only after “conservatives” managed to take back a majority of the NC Supreme Court that voter ID was “allowed” to come into effect, many years after the voters had approved the amendment.
But, they cheated in Wisconsin.
Bottom line on the SC race in Wisconsin: Any redistricting can be taken to the US courts, so crawford can be overridden or stopped.
Federal courts will not intervene if the Wisconsin courts claim they are basing their decision solely on interpretation of the Wisconsin consititution or other Wisconsin law. Any intervention by federal courts would require an alleged violation of federal law or a federal constitutional right. So, anyone appealing the WI supreme court would have to claim something like violation of due process or equal protection under federal law.
Dems have found state supreme courts have tremendous power as long as they claim they are interpreting state law only; they can basically divine anything they want out of state constitutions. Just like the tremendous power wielded by state AGs and secretaries of state, and local prosecutors.
It’s been done before so there is precedent. Here is a current example:
Neil Gorsuch Asks Lawyer: Did Louisiana Draw An ‘Appropriate’ Congressional District? | Watch
Why is Team Red losing the voter turnout? Here is one theory:
How do you determine how much wealth you have?
Is it the number of dollars in your bank account?
Nope its the amount of stuff you can exchange for those dollars.
More inflation means you can buy less stuff.
More tarriffs means you can import less stuff.
As a consumer, NOW you have to spend more of your $$$ dollars, and have less choice of the stuff you can buy.
Further the stuff you can buy now is likely to be lesser quality. (because of new supply chains, overworked supply chains etc.)
Think a millionaire stranded / shipwrecjeed on a remote empty tropical island with his dollars.
He does not have a radio but he has a briefcase with 10 million dollats.
Is this guy rich or poor>
Less stuff = you are poor(er)
No wonder the that the average American on the short term will feel they are getting poorer
And own less
On the short term its going against Trumps stated goals in his campaign.
People will feel this increasinly each time they enter a Store
This means lower voter turnouts, unhappy voters.
Plus the small fact that Trump did not drop the Ukraine conflict but tries to be a peace negotiator (with the recent NY times article on Ukraine and US role in it that seems more and more ridiculous) PLUS the fact there is a military buildup to attack Iran in middle east. And after we brush that under the rug we can start a little war with China as well.
Whats not to be happy about as someone who voted Red.
Now Team Red is giving people a reason to vote Blue again. Even though Blue should have been out for the count for a number of years.
.
All of this is a morally based argument. When morals are selfish the votes reflect it. You cannot convince a child to hand over a toy without promising something even more fun in exchange. It’s an unserious race.
There simply aren’t enough morally mature voters left to carry the burden of governance. The public has been so dumbed down there is no way a message of righteous morality can win. After that it’s all about pandering for votes.
Will the 12 weeks stand for every miscarriage?
So the question I have is to the highly compromised and questionable Chief Justice John Roberts who said (paraphrasing) that there are no such things as Obama judges, Bush Judges, or Trump judges etc…and that judges are impartial and go by the law. So what did we just witness in the Wisconsin Supreme Court elections? Those were judges who are not impartial and will side with their preconceived biases and political ideologies. Also, how does Roberts explain Judge Boasberg and Judge Chutkan for example? Roberts is a clown and joker and the whole judicial system is a clown show.
Judges go by the law just as the supreme court goes by the constitution; nay. One time the president can have almost absolute power unless they decide otherwise.
Republican voters staying home sitting on their hands watching cartoon shows on TV instead of caring about important things.
WI Democrat wins the WI supreme court seat. Ya right. The same voters who enshrined Voter ID into the WI constitution turned around and also voted for a raging liberal to be placed on the SC and flip the WI SC to a liberal court. Of course, there will be no investigation of election fraud.
And the Voter ID law victory is irrelevant in WI because the now raging liberal WI Supreme Court is going to declare the measure unconstitutional and over-turn the Voter ID “victory.” Once again, WI Republicans snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Use to be I’d get excited when I read that republicans get/keep a seat but now I wonder if it will do any good.
That’s the nearly new tagline for the democrat party, “forces of evil.”
Lord knows GOP needs more of a majority in the House!
Or, the shrinking margins are a result of continued vote fraud, and conditioning of the electorate to think that Democrats can win in mid-terms, again setting the table for the regular extensive vote fraud. Media will fall in line telling us all how close things are, then Democrats will then count votes until they win. And conservatives say “aw shucks, we’ll vote harder next time.” Groundhog day.
Please do more than forecast doom for the 2026 midterm elections for Republicans. Please share ideas to mitigate doom for the 2026 midterm elections for Republicans now, while there my be time to do something.
If the Repub majority implements President Trump’s major agenda items: cutting spending, giving poor workers some tax breaks, stopping rogue judges, etc. enough of his supporters will hold their noses and vote them back in next year. Very simple and obvious.
If not, even knowing there might be an impeachment, they may stay home. Conservatives are represented by people who openly despise and defy them at every opportunity. So they may just walk away in despair and disgust.
I voted for Randy Fine yesterday. Without getting into details, Josh Weil has something important in common with Illan Omar. We received quite a few postcards from his campaign. In the first one we received, he looked like a terrorist, so I did an online search and sure enough he belongs to the same death cult as Omar.
I wasn’t too concerned about the election until the last day or two. When I went to the polls there was a volunteer (male) who also looked like he belonged to that cult and inside the polling room it looked like a bunch of democrat women.
Glad it turned out ok.
Election Expert Seth Kesh:
The Wisconsin Dem Candidate Susan Crawford received more votes than any other democratic WI SCOTUS candidate in history.
it’s true…
2025: Susan Crawford – 1,181,000 votes.
Every other Dem SCOTUS candidate in history:
– 2023: Janet Protasiewicz – 1,021,822 votes.
– 2016: JoAnne Kloppenburg – 878,000 votes.
– 2020: Jill Karofsky – 855,000 votes.
– 2011: JoAnne Kloppenburg – 745,690 votes.
So… despite the democrat party having historical nationwide low approval ratings (24%), they got more popular?
Ok whatever…
Democrats ALWAYS start off with huge leads via mail-in voting.
The country cannot survive with mail-in voting.
I love it when the Dems piss away campaign cash!
There has to be some indigestion on the part of the RNC, considering that without Trump on the ballot, the party has a hard time with turnout. Will we see another Trump run?
Randy Fine is the most racist hateful person that I have come across in a long time and the fact that he calls himself a christian just blows my mind
