1. Maine too. Dems need to focus more on state level control.

2. They may be in for a rude awakening if covid deaths spike.

So far they want to believe our economy can withstand the spike in deaths. Not so sure it will. Forcing people to die is not a winning strategy - long term. They will pay.

3. i don't think covid-related deaths will deter Repugs from voting for their rabid candidates.

73M voted for the Con. Few sensible ones voted for Biden but split their vote and voted for GOP candidates down ballot. Covid continues to spike at very high levels but their still voted for their candidates. They blame covid on the chinese and other brown people. Oh the stupid.

8. I'm just speculating that if projections are correct...

..the carnage, due to their denial, egged on by Twitler, will be catastrophic, in their face, and in their homes.

4. 148 seats out of 7383 is 2%

New Hampshire has a rediculous 400 member lower house.

5. We did gain a seat in the Missouri House of Representatives

and I am glad to say it is my state house district! I know it isn't much but it means a lot to me.

6. The New Hampshire House has 400 members from 204 districts

It is the most numerous lower body of any state legislature.

7. I will say it again

They are screaming about voter fraud.

Which to my observation of republicans is a nearly 100% chance they committed large scale vote fraud.

Trump may actually believe he won and biden cheated because he knows his people cheated enough to flip a normal election.
