Yes. We point these things out though because the GOP never worries about how the floor has fallen out for them in urban areas (whereas Dems constantly worry about the rurals). They don't because they have favorable geography for the Senate and Electoral College -- but thats extremely fragile. -OS
kiddos wont figure it out until Obergefell is reversed, that might shock them into giving a shxt but havent seen much of that (i think) bcause of "Brayden" problem uv previously highlighted, when young men r disinterested in women, u have BIG PROBLEM, as i've told DIL, "honey, we cant fix that"
They have a buffer in the senate, which is another reason that chamber is a plague on democracy. But aren’t Dems favored with in the electoral college? They only won 1 purple senate seat in 2024. The red shift was less pronounced in swing states
Seems unlikely in the EC, given how the ball will bounce after the 2030 census, even if done by the book. But your optimism is admirable! I wish I shared it.
Their floor has been caving in in the suburbs for 4 or 5 cycles now, and if or when that fully falls out, they suddenly have a host of problems in both the Senate and the EC. -OS
And that's politics, baby. Nothing is permanent. Voters and coalitions are always moving targets. -OS
From God's mouth to your ears, Sir.
Texas Dems gave up on the rurals, all those 5k-10k population towns add up quick
TX Republicans gave up on cities. In 2023, the Republican mayoral candidate got 6% of the vote. In an oil city. -OS
pretty much gave up on the general public
