Tuesday Night Sucked. Now, Get Over It.. Kurt Schlichter

Tuesday Night Sucked. Now, Get Over It.
Kurt Schlichter


I've been watching elections since 1972 – yeah, I was that second-grader who cared that Richard Nixon won, even though Justin Poe assured me it was because Nixon voted for himself 20 times. I've had great nights – Reagan 1980, the 1994 midterms, Trump 2016, and Trump 2024 – and bad nights. This was a bad night, really bad, bleak without a single ray of light through the clouds, an electoral abortion of Roe v. Wade levels. But here's a hard truth about elections from a lot of these nights. Some election nights are good, some nights are meh, and some nights suck. Tuesday night sucked.

But it didn't super suck. While we lost everything, the end result was not a disaster of Obama 2012 proportions. Well, except for NYC, but they can live with that. The election was the equivalent of walking down a Scat Francisco sidewalk barefoot after a hobo chili cook-off, but it did not illustrate any great new truths that doom us in one year in the midterms. It illustrated old truths. It just sucked, and it's important that we learn what we can from it and get ready for 2026.

I predicted it, as did most observers. In Virginia, New Jersey, California, and New York, Democrat jurisdictions voted for … wait for it … you're not gonna believe this … the Democrats. I'm a great believer in Occam's Razor – the simplest explanation is probably the explanation. And the most likely explanation for Democrats winning in Democrat jurisdictions is that they were Democrats.

But it still sucks.

Mr Schlichter seems unaware, or he is deliberately avoiding the fact  that there were other races besides the two governor races and the New York City mayor race on Tuesday

It sucked because Rats threw stupid amounts of money at races that they were expected to win, and basically turned out in a low turnout race the 'I hate Trump' woke Left?

Indeed, Democrats swept many local elections such as those for school boards, mayors, and town councils and the like.  This was much bigger than simple state governor elections.  For example...

Democrats even Chambersburg Council, ALL PA statewide judges win retention

With 100% of precincts in Franklin County having ballots in, official numbers show a stark series of wins for Democrats within South Central Pennsylvania, statewide, and nationally.

All of these numbers are accurate as of time of publication as per UNOFFICIAL counts released by Franklin County and other statewide sources. National and statewide total counts can and WILL fluctuate as more votes are tallied. For local races, 100% of precincts have reported in for Franklin County but exact counts may change, especially in extremely close races.

(snip)

Chambersburg Borough Council is set to go from 9-1 Republican/Democrats to now being evenly split at 5-5.

Yes, he did, by a landslide!

According to the unofficial results as of 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, Donald Trump has received just over 71% of votes in Franklin County. That amounts to 36,137 votes over Democrat Kamala Harris.

He won around 70.6% of the county's vote in the previous two presidential elections.

Cyber observes:
"Kurt is always a good read."

Then you ought to be reading his latest fiction:
AMERICAN APOCALYPSE : The Second American Civil War

It's told from the author's (fictional) position as a writer, interviewing those who fought in it, from both sides.

On amazon here:

This one earns the highest "Fishrrman recommendation" to forum members...

Depressing.  But entertaining and informative.  Makes you think about how bad things can get, but things turn out OK in the end.
