For example in Mass. Republican nominated a very conservative candidate for Governor over a popular moderate one so they have won the battle but will lose the war. They have a candiate they love but the general election voters won't so by default a Democrat will win. I would much have a moderate Republican in office there than an avowed liberal Democrat as is going to happen in this case and many others this fall. We may still take the House and Senate but it is not looking near as likely as it did a few months ago.
McConnell spent 10 Million in 8 weeks to try to defeat the MAGA candidates in New Hampshire. The MAGA candidates won last night. Live free or die state.

Kari Lake won every single county in Arizona.

That’s something to pay attention to.
