The GOP have won around 90% of the special elections since Trump won.
In 2010 the Republicans only won around 50% of the special elections before a huge Red Wave came in Nov. 2010.
Has the media forgotten about 2010? Why are they acting like Special Elections are an indicator of Nov.? They clearly are not.

They fucked up, they thought Hillary would literally steal the election, but were wrong. To me it looks like Trump is undoing the long term plans of foreign governments and corporations in favour of the American peoples interests. I think it's just pure deception in the hope that they can sway voters, for some reason the BBC is considered credible over there
The only evidence is the narrowing gap between the same district in 2016 and now. The difference is that dems are pouring money into these districts, doing a full-court press where they’d normally concede and put their money elsewhere.
Why are they doing this? I don’t think they believe they can win these special elections. I think the goal is to excite donors by being able to say, “Look guys! Blue wave coming! If only we’d had more money then! Our 2016 analytics problem is over!”
Blaming poor analytics over 2016 is what they’re probably doing behind closed doors, rather than acknowledging that they’ve lost any mandate they ever had.
Its fake news, red tsunami coming
Dems just lost the Ohio referendum.
>The only evidence is the narrowing gap between the same district in 2016 and now.
Yes the Dems have thrown everything at these special elections and still lost. It's just the way the media totally ignores the fact that GOP turnout in special elections has been notoriously underwhelming, but then the GOP turns out hardcore in Nov. elections.
Pure dishonesty even in UK coverage.
Their basically trying to energize a demoralized, broken, chaotic democratic party. While we shouldn't get cocky going into Nov we should neither expect their imaginary blue wave.
Are we all forgetting republicans lost a senate seat in fucking Alabama? That is way more catastrophic than losing a few house seats
>The GOP have won around 90% of the special elections since Trump won.
You clearly don't know anything about US politics, or where those special elections were.
>Are we all forgetting republicans lost a senate seat in fucking Alabama? That is way more catastrophic than losing a few house seats
And they did lose a house seat in western PA, aka trump country.
That's really embarrassing for the GOP.
Western PA has Pittsburgh and its suburbs which are a dem stronghold no idea why it even had a republican house member so it's not embarrassing, but the Alabama senate election was
>Western PA has Pittsburgh and its suburbs which are a dem stronghold
Not outside of Pittsburgh. What are you talking about? Hasn't been like that for a while now.
the pundits twitter accounts, NY times etc are playing the game of if Democrats do well this is amazing and means Trump is gone, if they do badly it's expected , if anything other than a total loss occurs the Blue Wave is coming.
Just playing to their audience but it's infectious to people like the BBC as it fits their desire for it to happen, a blue wave and they can say it comes from reputable sources.
>Are we all forgetting republicans lost a senate seat in fucking Alabama?
emmm no sweety
If you think any Dem will be running against another tard like Roy Moore, you're in for a rude awakening lmao.
You'll never get another easy gimmie like that again.
Cause Trump backs Brexit, they dreaming he will be impeached in november.
Allegany count had less than 40 percent vote for the republican candidate in 2016, the lowest since before the year 2000. The Pittsburgh area is most certainly not trump country
The only way the dems are gonna win in these districts is to push their turnout even higher to like 90+%(no going to happen) to lower republican turn out even lower to 35% or less(also not going to happen)
in 2017 foreign readers should note, after a special election due a resignation.
Alabama is still republican 5/6 house representitives and 1/2 senators
Yeah this seems to explain it. Someone posted the stats from last night and Dem turnout is pretty much maxed out (>90%) whereas GOP was around 40 or 50%??
The Dems can't juice their turnout any higher and they still lost. People always say GOP voters are usually at work on special election days and will often not bother so much with voting compared to Nov.
No they can win without enthusiasm if Republicans stay home. Roy Moore lost even though less democrats voted in the recent senate election than they did in the 2008 election. All they have to do is find a way to steal away republican moderates from voting
>Roy Moore lost even though less democrats voted
Roy Moore was a one in a million disaster area..........literally the worst political candidate in 50 years. You'll notice Trump has since avoided supporting people like that and is backing candidates properly vetted by turtleman.
Only drooling retards think that Alabama is an indicator of ANYTHING.
The democrat party in the USA is become synonymous with "Liberal Hysteric"
They've been in a bubble since early 2016 or about and they don't seen what everyone else is seeing.
The journalists are pushing it, to excuse freebies to the USA. They love a paid holiday.
You mean have we forgotten how a pedo smear campaign was led against Moore, complete with Gloria Allred and Bimbo Brigade, no proof, just #metoo stories, complete with a forged signature in a yearbook, MILLIONS of dollars poured into the state, thousands of shillbots shitting up the comments sections of their local papers and shitting up Moore's Twitter? Oh and are we forgetting about one of these turds caught live on camera bragging about how they came from all over the country to canvas for and vote for "their man"? No, nobody has forgotten about that. Video very related. Asshole confesses that they came from all over the canvas and vote to get Jones elected. Alabama had their election stolen from them. Never forget that.
Steve Bannon and other retards backed Moore, while Trump backed Luther Strange. When Bannon’s bullshit blew up in his face, Trump sent his ass out into Hillary’s forest. Trump needs to hold the house by any means necessary to get his wall without a bunch of amnesty bullshit attached to it.
Trump backed Strange in the primary, but dumbass Bannon fucked up the entire process.
Well we are just as confused over here about the antisemitism in your Labour Party
special elections mean nothing. All the special elections that the democrats won were because nobody knew they even had to vote that day except the dems who's TDS makes them browse twitter 24/7.
The recent election in Ohio for example, the GOP only had 47% turnout compared to the dem's whopping 97% yet STILL managed to win.
British media coverage of American politics is lifted directly from CNN and the Jew York Times, which are indistinguishable from the Democrat party.
Their agenda is twofold; firstly, they represent (((international opinion))), so their counterparts back in the US can say that the world rejects Trumpism; while domestically, they get to perpetrate the narrative that no one likes or respects the American President, which steers normie Britbongs away from agreeing with him on matters of media bias or political correctness. They have been very successful with this as you can see in opinion polls where only about 20% of Brits are positive towards him (compare with Obongo when it was about 80%), so they will continue to lie no matter how well he does.
In short, they are lying kikes and the evidence doesn't matter because only a handful of people here actually follow yank politics.
they are pumping up a fad and instilling the "oh well theres nothing you can do about it" mindset like they did with the "englands bracing for another wave of refugees" and the "americas changing face" memes
They're doing the same thing they did with Hillary. Putting out fake polls to try and demoralize Republicans into not even turning out to vote.
IT. WON'T. WORK.
It will never work again. The mainstream media is dead when it comes to election rigging, which they've been doing for over a hundred years.
Social media alternative news sources have destroyed their ability to sway the public with polls. Especially since Trumps
election, where everyone on the right saw how blatant the poll rigging was.
No one who voted for Trump and saw those polls will EVER trust a poll again. Ever. You'd have to be a literal brainlet to trust them.
What's going to happen is the opposite. Everyone on the Dem side is going to get overconfident, they'll see all those inflated numbers.
And just like during the 2016 presidential election, these stupid faggots will get complacent, and they will fail to turn out in
the numbers they need to secure enough wins. Republicans will gain seats in the House and the Senate, enough to make it
so Trump can push through any agenda he wants without being stopped. Democrats forever BTFO coming this November.
Screenshot this post.
Every special election is a referendum against Trump until his candidate wins. Then it's "a close race that shouldn't have been that close BLUE WAVE IN NOVEMBER #RESIST #IMPEACH45" while the MSM talks about how Dems really won even though they lost.
For the few that Trump's candidate has lost (including Roy Moore, even though Trump didn't back him) it's a repudiation of Trump and the people rising up to stop Hitler 2.0.
The media forgets about what its said a week ago, why would they remember back to 2010? Their job these days is to push the DNC's narrative, not to report the news or to use historical context to explain an event.
>The recent election in Ohio for example, the GOP only had 47% turnout compared to the dem's whopping 97% yet STILL managed to win.
So the Dem turnout is maxed out already. All Trump has to do is bump the GOP turnout up from 50% to 60% and the House should be safe. What is the typical GOP turnout in Nov??
Should be very doable with a tv ad blitz and loads of rallys in Sept and Oct.
yeah this too
Are you forgetting it took the entire MSM focusing on false allegations for month to take that one seat? They can't repeat that trick during the general election, too many races will be happening.
The citizens of nowhere within the M25 have to spin it to justify their own march into the future mentality.
>Alabama
They ran a literal fuckhead who had no chance of winning the election. Trump did NOT endorse him.
>Party of braindead nigger lovers
>Wins election in place full of brain dead niggers
Well I'm just shocked. Drumpf is definitely finished.
>why are they acting like Special Elections are an indicator of Nov.?
it's because they are desperate to project the image of power overseas, in the hope it will sway domestic fence-sitters. pic related
The party not in power usually wins the mid-term elections. If the Dems do not win big it would be abnormal. They are hyping something that is commonplace and a natural occurrence.
>If the Dems do not win big it would be abnormal. They are hyping something that is commonplace and a natural occurrence.
And yet the Dems have lost 8 out of 9 of the House special elections..........
Hahaha. This guy was fucking with them so hard.
>Are we all forgetting republicans lost a senate seat in fucking Alabama?
>And that huge smear campaign with literally zero evidence that took place right before the election?
>And how many niggers the democrats literally drove to vote, which there is plenty evidence of?
>I mean come on guys, republicans lost ONE out of NINE special elections, how can they even compete against BASED Demolords?
>Oh dear god we are going to drown into this blue wave of piss ohno
BBC is fake news, bong
always believe the opposite of what they tell you
And the one they did win was won by a pro-gun, anti-abortion, old-school union worker Dem, not some effeminate "progressive" cuck.
lol nice find, looks like fucking Nigel Tufnel from Spinal Tap too.
