2018 Midterm Election Thread

The AP has just called the 4th District House race in Utah for the Democratic challenger Ben McAdams over the Republican incumbent Mia Love. The margin of victory for McAdams was 21 votes above what would have mandated a recount. This now means that the Democrats have gained 39 seats in the House of Representatives since election night on November 6th. That is more than where any of the projections were just prior to the mid-term elections. Democrats also gained 7 Governorships while only losing 2 Senate seats with a map that was advantageous for Republican candidates.

What happened? Just yesterday everyone was saying Love had taken the lead and was likely to win as the outstanding votes we're from more Republican leaning areas.

You’re happy that a black woman was ousted from congress by a white man?

Shame. Shame. Shame.

Well, black people and women vote for Democrats. If Republicans run a woman or a black, then the women and blacks still vote for Democrats. Doesn't make any difference who they run. They feel no kinship because they have been brainwashed to believe that Republicans are racists and misogynists.

First, Identity politics is garbage. Second, when African Americans vote for republicans they’re called uncle toms, when women vote against women candidates they’re called fake feminists and people say they let everyone down. So of course it looks like that

That’s not the point. People act as if Black people have to be democrats, if you vote against democrats you’re an Uncle Tom, a traitor, ect. People called any black person that voted for Ben Carson an Uncle Tom because he was a republican, same with John James, same with Mia Love, ect. Democrats complained and said white women was letting the country down and not voting democrat enough (split 49% vs 49% this year), they complained about 18% of black women not voting for Gillum. So of course one side is more diverse than the other, and again Identity politics is garbage

Is that why so many minorities ran for President under the Democratic banner in 2016?

Oh wait...

Sanders (old white guy)

Chaffee (old white guy)

O'Malley (old mid 50s white guy)

Webb (old white guy)

Clinton (old white woman)

Pretty good diversity you have going there...

Let's see, statistically in the 2016 elections:

Oldish white dudes:

GOP: 12 (70%)
DNC: 4 (80%)

Women:

GOP: 1 (6%)
DNC: 1 (20%)

Hispanic:

GOP: 2 (12%)
DNC: 0

Indian-American

GOP: 1 (6%)
DNC: 0

African American:

GOP: 1 (6%)
DNC: 0

In 2016, the GOP ran just as many women for POTUS as the DNC, 200% more Hispanics, 100% more African Americans, 100% more Indian Americans and 10% less white dudes.

EL? Care to explain why your tent wasn't big enough for minority candidates?
