Mid-Term Election Nov 6th
 

Dems and the media saying there will be a blue wave which will help the Dems take the House and win a few seats in the Senate.

GOP says not so fast! They're predicting a red tsunami which will help them keep the House and possible add a couple seats in the Senate.

Disclaimer: the last election (2016) I was wayyyyy off with Trump vs Clinton. I read and believed the polls, which all predicted a landslide for Clinton. Two years later, I'm very happy I was so wrong.

This year I'm not reading into the polls. However, I did read something interesting found HERE.

Some dude named Larry Schweikart has been tweeting about early ballots and comparing numbers from 2016 to those this year. He says there has been an increase in both early ballots cast (votes in the bank) and requests for ballots from Republicans and that numbers of these ballots are exceeding expectations and previous numbers.

He appears to be agreeing with the red tsunami prediction by pointing to ballot statistics.

The POTUS is in town tomorrow night for an event.

The Dems thought they could turn McCain's Senate seat blue (instead of purple) with Kyrsten Sinema... most polls have her with a lead over Martha McSally. I did see one recent poll which has McSally with a 4pt lead. Also, the past week and a half, Sinema has been bombarded with past video and audio and tweets of her insulting Arizona and Arizona voters. She's called AZ the "meth lab of democracy" among other insults and also back in the early 2000s, said during a radio interview that she didn't care if Americans joined to fight with the Taliban.

Anything is possible. AZ had Napolitano for Gov, so it's never a safe red state. But I just don't see Sinema beating McSally. Sinema is getting a ton of money from CA and Hollyweird, but hopefully AZ voters will elect McSally.

Look at the line of people already in line for Trump's rally tonight in Montana...

All the polls show Tester up by almost 5 points. Not sure what the ballot returns are looking like.

I believe that I read, in the past, that early voting is normally a Democrat thing. So, if that is true, this is interesting. I know one of my relatives is ticked over Brett Kavanaugh. They don't normally vote mid-term, have no idea why not, but will be doing so this year. :thumbsup

I have been on three conference calls with Ted Cruz. He is pumped!!

During my lunch break today, I turned on MSNBC because I saw this tweet regarding Beto:

MSNBC tweeted: "Beto O'Rourke's campaign has transcended politics to become something of a political-cultural phenomenon."

To which Cam Edwards responded: "“Transcended politics” = “He’s gonna lose”."

Anyway, I caught a bit of a segment about Beto during my lunch and sure enough, MSNBC is already laying the groundwork for Beto losing. It was Ali Velshi hosting and asking her guest what loss could be viewed as something good for Beto and Democrats. Is it good if he only loses by 4-5% pts? Basically the whole segment I watched was that they believe he's going to lose, in spite of his "rock star" rally events and the record amount of money he's raised the past quarter.

I hope Cruz trounces Beto. Hope it's not even close. I read this article in the NY Times, where they claim there's a growing surge of white, evangelical women who are voting for Beto and the Democrats this year, instead of the GOP. This, allegedly, due to Kavanaugh and other MeToo related issues.

I don't believe it.

They are trying to gaslight us like they did with Abortion Barbie, aka, Wendy Davis. Now, they want to turn Beto into another John F. Kennedy. That isn't going to happen as he is a Socialist. But, hey, he can ride a skateboard. Turns on the dumb, college youth, I guess.

I have seen some polls that show Republican candidates leading in early voting as well. Encouraging.

Re: Mid-Term Election Nov 6th
 

Read this morning that Trump is going to TX to campaign for Cruz. The campaign rented a venue that seats 18K, and over 77K have requested tickets.

Incredible!

I had thought about taking my oldest daughter to the rally here last night. But I knew people would be lined up early and she has school, I have work...

At noon, the line was a mile long. Doors didn't open until 4pm. Fortunately it was only 85° or so. There were photos I saw of thousands left standing outside watching on jumbotrons.

Trump needs to come to Florida to campaign for GOP gubernatorial candidate Ron Desantis who is tied with a Marxist radical that wants to end parental choice on education, drastically raise corporate taxes, make Florida a sanctuary state and implement a state income tax. How this clown is doing so good in the polls is beyond reason.

Re: Mid-Term Election Nov 6th
 

Trump is in TX tonight to campaign with "Beautiful Ted" Cruz. HA!

The Toyota Center in Houston seats 18K+ ... there have been people camping outside the venue for two days now. The videos and photos I've seen on Twitter of the lines are insane!!! It's going to be a packed house. I wouldn't be surprised if there were supporters stuck outside, unable to get in tonight.

No way Beto beats Cruz. Not with this level of enthusiasm.
