How the Mitch stole Christmas

Has anyone studied the impact of impeachment on the Congressional elections?

Asking this because I was speaking with an old friend who was slightly involved with a re-elect campaign in a district that was flipped in 18. According to him, in the polling they did, the democrat's vote for impeaching Trump was far more damaging than any other issue. Now this is just one poll in one district. It could be a complete outlier. So am wondering there has been any other polls or studies done about this. Thanks.

Red alert: George Takei coming up on The Reid Out

Sorry couldn’t resist

The Senators that voted against the Stimulus were all Republicans.

And the usual list of a-holes:

Blackburn (R-TN)
Cruz (R-TX)
Johnson (R-WI)
Lee (R-UT)
Paul (R-KY)
Scott (R-FL)

Every Democrat in the Senate voted for it.

When should Harris resign her Senate seat?

Assuming we win the 2 Georgia senate seats, if she waits until January 20th and is named immediately it will still take a day or two before the replacement can be seated. That give the GOP a 50 to 49 seat majority for those few days in which they will be able to pass rules that will hamstring Dems when they take over. They could bring back the filibuster for everything and require a 67 vote majority to break it.

Of course if we lose the 2 seats in Georgia, none of this matters.
