jamesb says
YES indeed Keith……
The Border issue didi NOT sink Suozzi….
The Democratic voters CCAME OUT AND VOTED…..
jamesb says
Biden won this district in 2020…..
A no name Dem lost it in 2022….
The GOP ran a Registered Democrat as a Republican…
This IS another indication that those who think Donald Trump is gonna over things should think twice and three times….
CG says
Looks like a wider than expected win, so james will gloat endlessly about this and claim he is intelligent about politics.
This should indeed be a big warning sign to Republicans. Since Donald Trump is bitter about early voting and mail-in voting, people who follow him do not do so, and thus Democrats are killing them on that front. Once again, Democrats outperform the polls and that is a huge reason why. Democrats know how to get low-propensity voters.
All that being said, it cannot be denied that Suozzi did not exactly run as a friend of Joe Biden in this race. That appears to have been the correct strategy. If he wins by double digits, you can argue he overdid it.
jamesb says
No Gloat CG…..
This district is just few miles from me….
I’ve seen Suozzi several time’s…
You asked me for my view….
I said 3-5%….
I do NOT give a shit…
Dem’s need the seat….
My guess is Dem’s WILL regain the House….
CG says
Suozzi sounded like a Republican on the border and sounded like a Republican on Israel. That was the correct strategy.
It seems like what worked to his advantage in this district was abortion and Trump.
CG says
The chaos over the border bill, etc, definitely hurt the Republican in this district.
Biden did win this district by 9 points in 2020 so its not exactly a political shocker that the Democrat win. Santos winning was the fluke and due to a horribly weak Democrat candidate that year as well as Democrats being overconfident across the board in NY in 2022.
CG says
The Dem nominee in 2022 was definitely not a no name. He just pulled a Hillary. Thought he had it in the bag and did not work hard.
I hope you realize now that you are in D’Esposito’s district and not in Meeks’ any longer. Perhaps, you did not vote in 2022 and did not realize that.
So, you will have the opportunity to have a more direct impact on flipping the House blue if that is what you want.
jamesb says
My Bad…..
Ur Right CG…..D’Esposito’s by 1/4 of a mile….
Yup….
Scott P says
I agree with CG. This is a warning sign to House Republicans in any suburban districts. Will they listen to election results or Trump? That’s the question.
CG says
Pro-Palestinian protestors crashing the Suozzi victory speech.
Preview of Chicago 2024
CG says
Has Suozzi always had that birthmark or does he have a red heart on his face for Valentines Day?
jamesb says
The GOP’s majority is now 219 to 213 (plus 3 vacancies).
jamesb says
Yo CG?
At 84% or so? In ?
9% margin
Keith says
It’s clear from the results, the voters of NY 3 want Joe Biden to be even older.
That migrant “crisis” didn’t work — again. The strong economy and dysfunctional Republican Majority won this election. Suozzi doubled the polling margin.
The Democrats also kept control of the Pennsylvania House in tonight’s special.
Bad night for the bad guys.
jamesb says
It HAS been STEADILY BAD for GOPer’s
But?
Suozzi gave warning’s
Of course GOPer’s got rid of Santos, Right?
GOPer’s have NOT done a DAMN THING in the House,eh?
jamesb says
97% in
Suozzi margin 7.8%
53.9 to 46.1
Kornacki says D’Esposito IS in Deep Shit
Biden won that district by 14%
And redistricting IS COMING SHORTLY.,,,
CG says
Maybe it finishes at a 7 percent spread.
I know exactly what MAGA types are going to say…. they are going to say since Governor Hochul postponed the Bills playoff game due to snow, she should have postponed the election today because of snow.
jamesb says
If they do Keith?
It will be the joke of the month…
CG says
D’Esposito’s district is more Democrat than this one. Biden won it by 15 points last time. I believe its the most D district to have a Republican House Member. It’s going to be pretty hard for the incumbent to win a second term there, but of course depends on who the Democrats nominate.
jamesb says
Ok
CG?
Don’t hold ur breath…..
My district ain’t gonna have the same bounties for the election
And yup D’Esposito was a leader in getting rid of Santos
jamesb says
Trump kicks Pilip for NOT running on his name…
jamesb says
Trump IS ONE WAY as usual…..
jamesb says
The reality is Trump HURTS REPUBLICANS
Keith says
Trump is the Republican Party!
He just said the GOP candidate didn’t win because she wasn’t MAGA enough.
Please proceed.
Scott P says
Exactly Keith. The GOP could use cut their ties with the loser Trump but they didn’t.
I’m gonna laugh my ass off at those in suburban districts who are chained to Trump now. They’re stuck and will sink with the fat fuck. I think it’s funny sd hell.
Keith says
The old guard is extinct. Of the 20 Republican Senators elected since Putin helped Trump assume the Presidency 17 of them voted against the foreign aid package at Trump’s instruction.
He owns the Republican Party!
jamesb says
Johnson Claims Special Election Says Nothing About Fall
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is brushing off the GOP loss in the special election to replace former Rep. George Santos (R-NY), arguing that the race is “in no way a bellwether” for the November elections, The Hill reports.
Said Johnson: “The result last night is not something, in my view, that Democrats should celebrate too much.”
jamesb says
Trump wasn’t enough in 2020
MAGA wasn’t enough in LI AND PA today
Suozzi though?
Ran AWAY FROM Biden in the campaign
But embraced Biden’s.. Why don’t we get along in his victory speech
jamesb says
Trump and his legal problems ARE going to be a crutch…….
LOT of GOPer’s mumble against Trump but are so scared they kiss his ass in public
Gonna be a LOT of them happy if their guy loses and goes to jail
