GOP on track for narrow majorityhttps://nypost.com/2022/11/08/midterm-elections-2022-live-results-and-updates/
By Samuel Chamberlain
As we approach 2:30 a.m., Republicans have flipped a net of six House seats,
one more than what they need to regain control of the chamber after four years
out of power.
Here are the nine seats they've flipped so far.
Florida 4th District (Aaron Bean def. LaShonda Holloway)
Florida 7th District (Cory Mills def. Karen Green)
Florida 13th District (Anna Luna def. Eric Lynn)
Georgia 6th District (Rich McCormick def. Bob Christian)
New Jersey 7th District (Thomas Kean Jr. def. Tom Malinowski)
Tennessee 5th District (Andy Ogles def. Heidi Campbell)
Texas 15th District (Monica De La Cruz def. Michelle Vallejo)
Virginia 2nd District (Jennifer Kiggans def. Elaine Luria)
Wisconsin 3rd District (Derrick Van Orden def. Brad Pfaff)

On the national front, it looks like the House will have a new party in charge! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:but Lauren Boebert (Colorado rep, 3 district) lost to a Dem, and Mayra Flores (Texas-34 district) also lost to a Dem. Both were incumbents. Laurens district was recently redrawn (gerrymandered). Mayra was a freshman.

even with a majority in the house, without a senate majority, impeachment proceedings will go nowhere. it might mark an end to the J6 drama-fiasco, though..

If some of the US House graphics are accurate, a number of areas of CA turned RED. Appear to be slim margins, but still.
Overall, seems like a signal that hopefully more CA folks are getting sick of the Pelosi, Feinstein, Schiff crap. I'm not really far leaning any direction in politics, just hate that people seem to complain about the crap state of things and keep voting for the people that got them there.

I am a bit surprised over some of the results, but I have to admit that I was watching mostly FOX for election coverage and doing so will give me some red-tinted goggles.
The most depressing thing about American politics is that ideologically, we'd have the "best and brightest" in office engaged in fair and balanced thinking. However, we have awful candidates we're essentially trying to force into office based solely on party affiliation. I get it. Most people vote by party affiliation. But, that still doesn't explain how these candidates get nominated in the first place.

It's definitely "far from over". Lots of states with 50% or greater margin-of-victory and mandatory recounts are still pending, not to mention any lawsuits.Same/similar. I was watching a Fox feed on my computer. Then when I was driving, the news feed on the radio was NBC based. MUCH different tones, which I expected.

On the ideology thing, I've found that in Hawaii, many folks vote by name recognition, and not necessarily people they know. Drives me bonkers.

Understandably so, these people want to keep their jobs and their way of life. Hopefully one day they will entertain the idea that they still can continue with their job security and way of life even though the leaders in charge do not have a "D" attached to their office.
I was a union member and my job depends on the political climate. Lay-offs are a reality when you work construction in the private sector. But the most profitable years of my career where I was constantly and gainfully employed happened when the leader of our state did not have that iconic "D" attached to her name.

What's funny is that ever since Bush v. Gore in the 2000 Presidential Election, both parties have questioned the legitimacy of any close election and challenged the Electoral College process.
It all started in 2000 when George W. lost the popular vote by like 500k votes, but won the Electoral College through Florida, where Jeb Bush was Gov, by less than one thousand votes, thereby making George W. POTUS. At that time, the "inversion" of popular vote vs. Electoral College had not occurred in more than 100 years.
Then Trump does the same thing in 2016, loses the populate vote by like 3 million votes but clutches and crushes in the Electoral College.

I agree. Aiona disappointed me as to his lackluster efforts. But I still voted for him. I know he can bring a fresh outlook to government and just wish he tried harder.
And who knows, if he just took a positive stance to 2a and gun rights maybe he would've done better. But that's debatable especially in this communist banana republic.
But I'd like to share a possibility as to why Green did so well despite so many people being outraged like you said about Green for many things.
When I was still working I would go to work the next day and my coworkers are all complaining loudly about how Democrats always get elected, same old, same old, yada yada yada.
I ask them. Did you vote? Most times than not they say No. Because it won't matter, they say. I look at them as a person would look at turds steaming in vanilla ice cream.
I would bet the majority of those complainers about Green didn't vote. Garan Ball Barans.

Republicans gaining a majority in the US Senate is still looking promising ---- for now.
As it stands, the Senate is at 48D/49R. 51 are needed for a majority. 50/50 gives the Dems a majority, as Kamala gets to decide any ties.
That's 48+49 = 97 seats decided. Between the 3 remaining races, GA and NV look to be the GOP's best shot at hitting the magic number of 51, with AZ being a less likely seat to flip to "R". If Republican candidates only win one of those three seats, we go back to a 50/50 split.
Georgia will make 98 seats decided. A runoff election is to be Dec 6th from what I heard. Since neither top candidate received the minimum 50% of the votes cast, the runoff is automatic. Walker (R) has a very good chance of winning.
Nevada is going to be counting for a week or more according to reports.
That is the 99th Senate seat, and the Republican candidate is making a strong showing.

In Nevada, two days after Election Day, Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto's race to defend her seat
against the challenge from Republican Adam Laxalt is still a toss-up, and the outcome may not be known for
days. On Thursday morning, with about 84% of the results in, Laxalt was leading by almost 2 points, but the
race has tightened, and the margin separating the two is now under 16,000 votes.
Ballots are still being counted in the state's most populous county, Clark County, where 86% of the vote is in.
In 2016, Cortez Masto won the county by over 80,000 votes. Washoe County, the second largest county,
where Reno is located, has 88% of the vote in.
Clark County Registrar of Voters Joe Gloria told reporters in Las Vegas Wednesday that he expects that the
ballots in that county may be counted by next Thursday, at the latest, and the canvass of the vote would take
place next Friday.
Cortez Masto, 58, is considered to be the most vulnerable Democratic senator fighting for reelection, and if
Laxalt, a former state attorney general, defeats her, it will be a crucial pickup for Republicans looking to flip
the seat and gain control of the upper chamber. Three Senate races remain to be decided. In addition to Nevada,
Arizona's Senate race is yet to be called, and Georgia's Senate race is going to a runoff in early December.

Arizona is the final state to complete the 100 seats in the Senate.

leading Masters by about 95,000 votes, or 5 percentage points, over Masters, with 76% of the results in.

New technology used on Election Day helped deliver voting results from more remote areas within minutes.
The state Elections Office launched the Remote Rally system for the first time Tuesday and said it worked.
The technology allowed results to transmit “directly to the county center,” said Chief Elections Officer Scott Nago.
In previous elections, after the polls closed, ballots from Molokai and Lanai had to be flown to Maui to be processed. And on Hawaii Island, the ballots had to be driven from Kona to Hilo, where the service center is located.

In 1992, I was supporting Operation Tandem Thrust in Guam. I was using FTP to send PowerPoint Presentations and other digital files from the shore site to the Blue Ridge Command Ship. It took 4 minutes from me getting the files until the intended recipient confirmed they had the files. Before this, the files were being flown by chopper to the ship and back. Of all the impressive and innovative things we did behind the scenes to make the exercise a success, THIS was what impressed the people in charge.
As I said, that was 3 decades ago. Are these people telling us it took over 30 years for this "new technology" to be used for something as routine and frequent as transmitting vote tallies?

At minimum a recount, I would guess.

I refuse to vote via mail. Way too many chances for some nonsense.

Voting this time was utter bull. Only two polling places on the island?! The polling place last time, before the plandemic, was at a nearby school.

I took mine to the Mililani Ride Share ballot drop box about 2 hours before end of election day. There was a line of cars moving the whole time.
Had to drive up to the box, get out, put the ballot in, and move along. The workers were there for traffic control and is you had any questions. Nobody touched my ballot between my hand and the drop box.
I won't trust the Post Office unless I have no other option. Too many stories of ballots being found in dumpsters, ravines, people's bedrooms, etc.

My Christmas present is thousands of cartridges.
I'm way past ballot box.
I prefer Russian ammo,
less for them to use on Uks.

Sounds like it's official. Lauren Boebert (R) won her race to retain her House seat in Congress by less than 600 votes.

Less than 600 votes. Votes do count. Imagine if those 600 people said F**k it. :thumbsup:

He doesn't want a recount!
I believe the report said the recount is automatic due to the closeness of the tallies. What he SAYS he wants and what he hopes happens are not necessarily the same.
I think the report also said if her opponent withdraws from the race, the recount would not happen. If he TRUTHFULLY doesn't want a recount, he should drop out. Otherwise, he's just mouthing empty words.
