Hey, we've all been through some shitty elections. Clinton winning in 1994 & '98, Barack Hussein 0bama's back-to-back wins, and of course COVID Joe's fluke win in 2020. But to paraphrase my Dad, one should never let their dauber down. You shouldn't either.
I think some of thee problem in Texas is from all the liberals from California who moved there, just like here in Florida we have all the dems who moved here from the north east to escape t he hell holes they created in their states.
Looking over the info.
Might hold Alaska, but right now it's by the finger nail. (Singular) The Dan J trick is minimal, 3,447 votes, but the difference right now is less than 800 votes.
Texas is concerning. Hate to say it but Paxton clearly wasn't the better choice. John Cornyn was the safer bet. Also, every single district in Texas shifted Blue, not one red.
But looking over vote shift maps. States that showed some shift red in any district were almost entirely Liberal states while all Red states showed little if any. The red shift from 2024 undone. Maine showed the most promise with Red shift.
Good read on my point above

Edit
Looking at Texas more, Talarico has currently 5,445,121 votes, Harris in 2024 got 4,835,250. Right now the numbers are lining up almost flipped.

Some on DU are not as politically savvy as others.
I am speaking about myself. I don't often jump in with facts or analysis, but I support and agree with most posters, and our liberal agenda.
I want to say thanks to all of you who put in the time and effort that made being on DU in the last 24 hours so satisfying. In one week I'll be 82, so these victories mean I'll live to see a brighter future for my grandchildren.
You really are good people.

This is why I don't care if CA or NY to catch an errant nuke.
Best issue for democrats was conflict in Iran. This ranked very high as their priority.
Hispanic voters, who swung to Trump in 2024 in the naïve belief that he would bring prices down, turned massively against a regime that is arresting, imprisoning and deporting their friends and families.
