202,000 votes.

Less than 2000 votes decided the election...

Meanwhile, socialist Ortez who shocked everyone in NY with a primary win - all of the candidates she endorsed elsewhere lost today.

Too damn close for comfort.

In MI, the former Ranger and West Point grad won tje Republican Primary. I hope he kicks the crap out of Stabenow. Trump won MI in 2016, we need to flip all the seats in the Senate where D's are up for re-election in Red States.

Dems outspent the GOP 4 to 1 in OH-12.

The RNC is a failing body.

The left is going farther left, and the backlash from centrist lefts is pretty clear, IMO...

If the dems push a centrist nominee, the far left will feel abandoned, if the dems push the 'socialist' agenda, the centrists might be convinced to #walkaway.

I just have a sneaky suspicion that every month during the 2020 campaign something 'new' will be coming out against Trump. The dossier did real damage, and people still believe it despite it being proven false.

Let's face it. The democrats are energized right now because of Trump derangement syndrome.

And the "winner" of the Ohio Senate election is:
Ohio's own Goodspaceguy
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... bsite.html

Green party spoiler candidate in Ohio election whose 1,100 votes could tilt outcome says his ancestors were from another planet and can't remember his own campaign website address

Joe Manchik played spoiler Tuesday in Ohio, taking nearly enough votes in from the Democrat in a special election to trigger a statewide automatic recount
The native of Hell, Michigan says his ancestors came from a distant planet and couldn't remember his own website address during an interview this year
He claims marijuana is the solution to opioid addiction and says he speaks 19 languages including 'Spanglish' and 'Sheet Music'
Calls Israel's prime minister a 'war criminal' and says every American should be required to grow hemp
There are still thousands of absentee and provisional votes to count, nearly 5 times the Republican candidate's apparent margin of victory
Ohio law says officials can't start counting them for 11 days

Having to know Goodspaceguy and being his Chief Campaign Strategist, I don't think that is a fair analogy. Goodspaceguy is a pro-Tumper (the ONLY Republican candidate in 2016 that fully supported Trump), libertarian, gun owner and PRO Gun. Goodspaceguy had his Trump signs taken in short order from his front lawn and paraded with Trump signs at Trumps appearance locally. Little goofy, but very principled. Does not take PAC money and limits campaign contributions to $25. Does not like the profligate spending of local politicians so gets off of his butt and runs for elected office. What have YOU done?

It takes to run a fee of 2% (IIRC) of the one year salary of the position you are running for. It is not cheap.

Added: Goes to local council meetings regularly to chide elected politicians of their reckless spending to where they implemented the "Goodspaceguy rule" limiting comments to two minutes.

What have you done to turn the tide?

Unpublished facts about OH12 the anti-American press refuses to broadcast/publish:


About 1700 vote difference between R and D. Around 100,000 votes for each candidate.

D total vote was 87% of the Hillz vote in 2016. Remember, the Dems level of HATE is high and getting drilled every day by the Leftie press. HATE, reinforced daily by 90% of the Leftie press, is a strong group motivator. After all, they are reminded daily that Trump is actually Satan. So any action to fight against Satan is justified. Any action at all.


R total 2016 Trump vote was 244,000. 144,000 R voters stayed home. Remember, there is a week or two left in summer school vacation, last minute household projects, getting ready to go back to school, etc.

Come November for the "regular" election, many of those 144,000 will be showing up.

The Leftie press will never mention this.
