Any ideas?
I am so mad over the way the Republicans treated that 10 year old rape victim from Ohio, I hope they pay big time at the polls for it.
What’s your opinion?

I predict the Republican bull that has calves with three cows to lose.
I would go along with Five ThirtyEight They have a pretty good record, although they had Clinton over Trump. They have the Democrats holding onto the Senate and losing the House. I am somewhat more confident in their House prediction than their Senate prediction.
Propaganda will scare people into voting Republican because people are afraid of protesters and crime.
The bad guy wins in the real world.
Sad but very true!
Thanks @Blackberry.
Hence why we call them Fright wingers!
No way you guys. Dems are going to win bigly again! Normal thinking people are pissed and more importantly women are pissed!
I hope you’re right @Dutchess_lll
But Republicans are experts at spreading fear among voters.
I have no idea. I think the Democrats are over estimating abortion being the saving issue this election cycle. I hear Democrats saying that more and more women are registering to vote and they are assuming that is going to tip the scales to the Democrats. I hope they are right; I don’t feel so sure.
I’m really really hoping Val Demings in Florida beats out Rubio for Senate. You should see the ads running against Demings. Blatant lies. Nonstop on my TV. It is incredible. Just like the swiftboat when Bush and Kerry were running.
I think Republicans will do well, but probably not as well as they think. I think some of the wackier candidates out there, like Herschel Walker, Blake Masters, and Mehmet Oz, will lose. I think Republicans will be claiming “fraud” absolutely everywhere and we may see violence at the polls (I certainly will be expecting that in 2024).
I think the popular vote will favor the Democrats, but I think the measures Republicans have put in place to gerrymander and hinder minority voters, and to emplace maniac partisans in positions to influence how elections are run, may get many Republicans elected where they should not.
It’s honestly hard to say, both parties have issues. The people who many see as left have done quite a few things to piss off the center-right and right even if the party at large has been mostly status quo. Then you have the Republican party with the abortion thing pissing off a lot of people. There is enough overlap of pissed off-ness here to go around.
Trumpers are in trouble !
