Another fail for the great blue wave in elections
- Thread starter Celticguy
- Start date
They didn’t actually expect to win this special election, but they will try, again in November. I think the turnout will be greater then.

Fail? Both Trump and Romney won by high double digits. The GOP out spent the Democrats by 4-1, the candidate was very good, maybe a bit too liberal and you barely won by 4 points

I was listening to the exit interviews of why Republicans where Voting Democrat this time ...
It was all about Education, I guess that explains why a State that Trump Won by 20%+ , now candidates are narrowly Winning.
Ever stand in ankle deep water, when a chest high Wave comes in?
The press was by the Repubs. There was over a million dollars of Repub money funneled into that election at the last moment.
And how much funnelled in from the left before that ?

A win is a win. Doesn't matter how big or small (well except in those retarded states that require you to have 50%+1 to avoid a runoff trigger.)
A buck fitty. This was hugely Republicunt district , So it was closer than normal. But we still have another damn hater in office.
