I haven't checked but I'd bet they have a separate political arm of the organization. I could be wrong but that's what I'd guess how they get away with it. ETA: I just checked and PP has a separate PAC for political donations. |

Just riot in a few more cities and try to kill some more republicans and they have this all sewn up.IMO this is a good analysis: https://mpcdot.com/forums/topic/9639-the-dnc-is-burning Let's really look under the hood at this fantastic meltdown:  Attached FileMuch of lower Fulton county and the western half of Dekalb county went more Republican than they did in the primary in April? Why? Remember these are Democratic areas over all. In the "Silver Lake" precinct of Dekalb (just to take one example) there were 1150 Ossoff votes to 988 Handel votes yesterday. Back in April, there were 857 Ossoff votes to 428 Republican votes. (Remember, the Republicans had a real primary with lots of candidates while the Democrats did not, for strategic reasons.) Ossoff increased his votes by 34% over April while the Republicans more than doubled their vote turnout--in a Democratic precinct! How did this happen? I have a hard time imagining that the Republicans built a really good GOTV (get out the vote) machine and then chose to deploy it in the Den parts of the district. If you build a GOTV machine, you use it in your strongest area to run up the score. So, I have three theories on what actually happened: 1) The Dems GOTV machine ain't all that and is falling apart in the post-Obama era, 2) The out-of-state money was a huge turnoff and motivated undecideds to punish Ossoff, and 3) The alignment is real and happening fast enough to see a shift between April and now. Looking again at the vote map, Handel increased R margin along Route 19, a major commuter highway going in and out of Atlanta:  Attached File Attached FileThe dot map is the NYT segregation map; green dots are white people, blue is black people, orange is Hispanic. Route 19 appears to be a mostly white, some Asian commuter area. (I could be wrong; the maps are not easy to compare. Chime in if you're from Atlanta and have more insight.) The "money -> GOTV machine -> victory" pipeline Obama built is broken. There are an awful lot of precincts along Rt 19 that are light blue but have red arrows on them. If the Den GOTV machine were working, those precincts would have blue arrows. Is it broken because of poor organizing and infighting? Because milquetoast whites are rebelling against obvious astroturfing? Because it can't compete with Trump's Twitter feed? Discuss. |

I've been watching elections since DDE and voted for RMN. Where did all of the delusional left freaks come from? Have colleges been spewing them out? I remember all the fruitcakes in CA in the 60's; did they get older and have these kids? Our only hope is that they abandon hope and move to Europe...

Quote HistoryQuoted:
The GOP would be room temperature and attracting flies right now if Jeb cruised to a semi-rigged nomination and thus got blown the fuck out by Grandma Clinton, taking a shitload of congressional seats with him and driving the base to utter despair. Clinton wouldn't have passed up the chance to stomp on the GOP's neck either. Trump completely flipped the script and exposed the Democrats as delusional zombies instead, it's really an astonishing turn. and the best part is.....the media helped him, they wanted him to be the nominee! They were sure Hillary would destroy him in the general. They regret that now , don't they?

Trump hired the congressman in that district for his cabinet, so a special election was needed. Democrats spent about 35 million dollars to get a democrat (Ossoff) to fill the seat, most of the money came from California and New York. The democrats spent more money on this campaign than in any house congressional election in US history. Democrats everywhere just KNEW that the D was going to win, and told everyone that him winning would prove that everyone was sick of Trump. This was to be their bellweather of bellweathers. They went absolutely all-in on this one. This was a win big or lose everything gambit. The R (Handel) won handily, by about five points, about seven or eight points higher than the latest polls indicated. Absolutely no poll was anywhere close to the actual results. Handel is considered a weak candidate, but won anyway. So if this is a referendum on Trump as they claimed, Trump is awesome and everyone loves him. |

Quoted:
Leftist professor
They bitching about gerrymandering, but the redistricting reduced the number of GOP voters (narrowing the margin would have been the point of gerrymandering anyways). Ossof is also now making noises about "campaign finance reform"
Quoted:
This disturbs me. How can you get so emotionally wrapped up in someone WHO SEEKS POWER OVER YOU AND WANTS TO CONTROL YOU that you cry when he loses? My mind does not follow those paths. 1. It's like a kid throwing a fit that one parent is awarded custody, when the other parent promised them a pony. 2. Their entire identity is wrapped up in their smug lefty superiority. These are the kind of people that call off work because they're upset that their party won't get to use the .gov to force people to do things the way they want done. Some people want to be left alone - these are not those people. They're control freaks of the highest order. Quoted:
Sitting here thinking the same thing. Change the characters, and this was that crap posted all over arf in '08/12. It will be posted again when the pendulum swings back the other way. And it will. If the Dems had run someone who did the same thing and stole a bunch of traditional GOP voters (or drew out new voters, which is pretty much what Obama did), they'd have won handily. Instead, they made three big fuckups: 1. Obama did not govern based on what he purported to run on. Sure, it was clear what he was to anyone really paying attention, but he basically didn't deliver on anything to his voters. Instead he delivered for his backers, and even a lot of that was a half-assed shitshow. This turned off a lot of the Dem base and made any run by a potential Dem Trump-like candidate an uphill battle. 2. The grievances they tapped into for their campaign were largely imaginary, and mostly boiled down to name-calling. They did this after Obama handed their opponents a bunch of real outrages on a platter. 3. They ran Hillary on a platform of "fuck half the country, even if you voted for us in the past". Trump's campaign was openly but not overtly pro-LGBT and made a serious pitch to various minority groups as to why they should vote for him. This may not have gained a lot of votes (though he certainly performed better than any recent GOP candidate in that respect), but it made the Dems screeching about bigotry backfire on them. |

This wasn't the first "referendum on Trump" election but it was the big one. It was an absolutely devastating loss for the Femocrats. They went all in and their candidate not only lost, he lost decisively, by a higher margin than anyone predicted.
The meltdown on the left isn't entirely unwarranted. This was really bad. Their findraising will fall off a cliff after this. When it comes to winning, "Lawd, I ain't no ways tired." |
