Dems hold Senate!
AP called the election in Nevada tonight for Senator Catherine Cortez Masto, who was defending her seat against a stiff challenge from Trump-backed Adam Laxalt. If Raphael Warnock wins the runoff election in Georgia against Hershel Walker, another of Trump’s hand-picked candidates, in December, Democrats will hold a 51-49 majority in the Senate at least for the next two years.
It’s still unclear which way control of the House will go, but seismometers were said have detected signs of exploding heads in the states of Kentucky and Florida, where Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump respectively reside.
When the news broke, I exhaled. Again, it’s the Saturday after the Tuesday as in 2020. Still, I want to work hard for Warnock. Wouldn’t it be great to never have to consider the daffy Manchinema Duo ever again! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙❤️🤍💙
This is huge. It explodes the crazy GOP theory that simply whining about inflation and the border without offering reasonable policy solutions is a winning strategy, on top of all the congressional process advantages it allows for the Democrats.
