Pennsylvania voters retain three state Supreme Court justices, preserving Democrats' 5-2 majority​

NBC News projects the incumbents survived an up-or-down vote to keep their seats on the battleground state’s high court.

Exactly! Since Kiwifarmer do it, it is completely normal for the AG of a state to do that as well!

If Mamdani wins am sure the Federal funds going to NYC will be slashed to the absolute legal minimum. Don't see him ever being invited to the White House, either. Suggest he will be a nonperson as far as Washington goes, except as a target of the DOJ.

Mamdani winning is a forgone conclusion brudda.

Energy well spent

Again, I am saying this very loudly- Trump must pivot to domestic issues rather than wasting political capital on foreign ones, or else the Republicans will lose in 2026.

Definitely agree. He spent enough time abroad, and its becoming clear that when he does not push them to, GOP goes back to its kneeling position.

Total Migger Death
 
Sometimes, I wonder how many people are worrying about these high-profile races who didn't bother voting in their own local elections.
 
Well, it’s fortunate that these states are irrelevant to me. I think that Republicans had no particular chance in these states, but they ought to ignore foreign issues for next year and focus on continued immigrant removal and crime crackdowns to garner easy support in 2026.

A large percentage of "Virginians" are from the Northeast, California, or are Mexican mystery meat. And Indian/Paki H1Bs. And they all moved to Northern Virginia because of the government jobs and datacenter jobs.

Combine that with your stereotypical American urban black that already existed in Richmond, and Virginia's demographics are toast. Not even being a doomer, if you aren't in Richmond or NoVA, its still gorgeous and affordable(ish). Just that the laws will all be decided by retards in NoVA and Richmond.

I used to live in NoVA about 20 years ago. Even back then it was still heavily developed, but was mostly white. Went back last year for business reasons, place was unrecognizable.

Ya, spent a lot of time many years ago in NoVA, visiting defense contractors.

Got these today.

If Mamdani wins wonder how tourism to NYC will be affected.

Like I said, he's already essentially admitted defeat and let the Dems run wild in the country. His approval rating is cratering and there is almost no hope for Vance to win 2028.

The really scary thing is the implications for if Spanberger and crew think they have a mandate to try and turn Virginia into California. That is not going to end well at all.

Saw numbers on Fox, 52% of VA voters think "Support for transgender rights have gone too far."

Not CA, but not willing to use this as a litmus test for who they vote for.

Eternal reminder that this is what the people want. None of us are going to survive the next decade.


The Trump admin has already admitted defeat. The next three years are going to be a slow decline for Trump until Newsom or AOC wins 2028 and kills or imprisons us all.

The people of VA have spoken, and they want BLOOD.

Not their own blood, of course. Some indescribable social media version of blood that only exists in their imaginations. They didn't vote for this, obviously!

(lmao)
 
Trump must nuke the filibuster. I hope this is sufficient impetus (cue Fatpacks saying “durrr he won’t do anything we’re all going to a gulag”)

Should be a learning moment for sure. They should have been able to grab something. Knowing them however, they'll go back to Israel kneeling.

I don't want to be that guy, but a Fox News poll might not be the most unbiased poll.

Keep in mind half the reason polls exist is to manipulate public opinion, because a horrifying percentage of people will base their opinion on what is perceived as the majority opinion, rather than any actual facts.

I'm really more concerned about the symbolism of him winning than anything else. 90% of what he's promising is literally impossible, be it due to being out of his power as the mayor, complete lack of funds, or other interest groups who are going to cuck him left and right.

He's similar to AOC in that he's role playing as somebody way more powerful than he actually is.

But if he wins it will continue to normalize muslims and foreigners and socialists in positions of power which is disgusting.
 
The problem with the Republicans is that they win one (1) election and immediately piss off the median voter by going for the full Heritage Foundation wishlist because they fundamentally have no confidence in their long-term viability. They talk a big game but they act as if they need to do everything as slapdash as possible before the dems retake power.

Focus on the issues that you can actually win on (namely - immigration, the economy, and unpopular DEI slop initiatives). Stop listening to Twitter weirdos. Tell Trump to stop hiring all these retarded bimbos who can't help but have the worst messaging known to man.
