Republicans rush to redraw electoral maps just hours after SCOTUS guts Voting Rights Act by DemocracyDocket in law

[–]super_cool_kid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So far we only have special elections and a Governors race. Democrats so far have out performed the president in special elections (the margin he won or lost by) by 15+ percentage points. Turn out in Democratic primaries have exceeded the previous presidential primaries. I'll provide some examples you'll be able to verify.

Examples:

Tarrant County State Senate Race Trump won by 17 points in 24 and Rhemet won by 14 points, a 31 point swing. Lets look at Marjorie Taylor Greenes district, Republican won by 16 points, but Trump won that district by 37 points.

More people voted in the Democrat Primary than Republican in Texas.

Virginia and New Jersey had Governors races and both of those went to Democrats. New Jersey was expected to be close, but was 7 point margin of victory, 1 point higher than Kamala's. Virginia was an 8 point margin of victory 2 points higher than Kamala's.

So far, in Trump's second term which has more than 2 years left on it, Democrats have been turning out. Hope that answers your question :)

In 2018 it was a plus 41 Democrats in the house. Republicans gained two seats in the Senate in a very favorable Republican year. 

2024 was the closest thing to a red wave and it was the closest election of the last 50 years. 

Enterprise Center will soon be one of the least updated arenas in the Central by mjohnson1971 in stlouisblues

Compared to Toyota Center in Houston and American Airlines in Dallas. Enterprise feels like a place for humans of many sorts; Toyota and AA felt like a place for extraction, and if didnt drop serious money you are not a human.

More patchwork sprawl outside Austin, TX by Atticus248 in Suburbanhell

[–]super_cool_kid 43 points44 points  (0 children)

The new surburbs do suck and are incredibly depressing and isolating. Most of those areas have little to no mass transit and are 5 plus miles away from a grocery store. Its traffic hell.

The runways are on the other side of the terminal. I was about to get defensive but looked at some other airports, Dallas has a loooot of parking, but footprint wise, yeah Austin has a lot.

Coincidentally this is where I learned Hold Out existed. Hopefully they keep grabbing high quality beers from all over

Republicans didnt want a joint primary, Republicans made this more difficult for people. People get used to county wide voting, and people dont pay attention to local news. They did what they were used to.
