After a mixed November election, Republicans have struck back to win multiple state seats. The Free Beacon reports:
The Republican Party has flipped four state legislative seats from Democratic control since the start of 2019, reversing political trends witnessed over the past two years.
On Tuesday, Republicans won a special election for the Kentucky state senate in a district where more than 60 percent of voters are registered Democrats, as reportedby The Hill. The Republican nominee, Philip Wheeler, bested his opponent, Democrat Darrell Pugh, by a 52-to-48 percent margin.
The special election for the eastern-Kentucky district followed the resignation of long-term incumbent Ray Jones, who was elected to a local judgeship. Jones, who served as the state senate’s minority leader prior to his departure, won reelection in 2016 with more than 70 percent of the vote. At the same time, President Donald Trump received nearly 80 percent of the vote in the district over former secretary of state Hillary Clinton.
The race, which saw both candidates touting their pro-life, pro-coal, and pro-Second Amendment credentials, was widely painted as a referendum on incumbent Republican governor Matt Bevin. The GOP’s strong showing in the eastern-Kentucky bolsters Bevin, who has seen a rise in his unpopularity rating, as he prepares to seek reelection to a second term this year.
These series of elections show that there is no permanent victories in politics.
Anyone that continues to vote and support the Democrats after showing their true self’s have to be insane. The Republican party aren’t perfect but at least they dont support illegals that snub their noses at our laws, and who murder american citizens, and the Democrats are more concerned with saving kittens than human lives, when an animal is more precious than a human life. The politicians in the Democrat party are evil and corrupt to the marrow in their bones.
LETS DO TRUE AMERICANS !!! I LOVE YOU THX YOU
Most of these votes on the electoral college and stupidity like illegals or non- citizens voting are not legal. I know the electoral college is in the constitution as well as voting rights. All this crap on guns etc, require a constitutional amendment.
So sad that I read today, that Pelosi is going to have a vote and she says Democrats are backing their new push to pass the law allowing illegals to vote in all our elections. She stated that they contribute to our economy so they should have a right to vote. Makes me sick to see how far the Left is willing to go just to be able to win elections again. They know that the American People are getting fed up with all their Social Justice BS so they have to go to people who they know they can buy. Somehow WE need to stop the Lefts insanity before they get what they want with the destruction of America as we know and love her.
She can have all the votes she wants, but no way is it going to get passed the Senate. Conservatives need to get off their sofas and find out where their representatives are holding Town Hall meetings. Ask the uncomfortable questions, take notes of their responses and confront them with their own words when the next election comes around! We want to get that gavel back from the inept Nancy Pelosi and put it in the hands of a true Conservative.
straight Republican ticket no dang demos allowed
It’s unfortunate that Mitch McConnell is unable to control his GOP Senators, too many RINO’s, Collins, Mirkowski, Romney, Alexander.
Yesterday Pelosi was pushing for Illegals to VOTE! That is insane, the RINO’s are myopic, they are contributing to the destruction of the USA we once knew, NO WALL means perhaps millions of illegals will cross the border and vote for the Socialist Democrats, time for those RINO’s to change their positions or its ADIOS America!
I agree but really don’t think they will come to their senses. The RINOs are so use to how much power they have taken without votes from Americans. I mean, I don’t remember giving them power to give themselves the power to give themselves raises, exclude themselves from Laws they don’t like, ETC…
Sadly McConnell is one of them that will fight to the end not to let go of his power. I already informed them that our family will no longer donate to their party. Not until they stop the, We know better than you attitude. We voted for this GREAT President and they need to stop trying to railroad him every time he tries to keep more Campaign promises. The people voted for Trump in turn meaning we voted for the wall that he promised. It is like a slap from the RINOs every time they go against common sense bills. TERM LIMITS is the only way they will not get so comfortable to the point they feel they can all act like children, ignore laws they feel harms their wallet, lie to the very people who gave them a job, and most of all kicking can down the road because they all know, none of them will bend over and pick up the can except TRUMP. I demand they start finding their back bones and stand up and fight instead of whining while doing nothing to fix it.
The only way to get term limits is through Article 5, convention of states.
They will never impose term limits upon themselves, because that kills the cash cow. Check it out. The 14th state just passed the convention of states resolution. You will not see it in the mainstream news as they are in cahoots with the politicians!
Well said. I inform & encourage people to sign up the Convention of States. The state I’m from passed this resolution but it is in a holding pattern due to opposition.
LOOK, you have two choices. 1.) VOTE FOR AMERICA Includes Every Race, Nationality Religion or Political View. (RIGHT.) OR 2.) VOTE ANTI-AMERICA Select fews (LEFT)….. That is all we got to choose from. I am going for a Straight Ticket on the RIGHT!
Right on!
Go Right . or.. go left
I’ll go right, 100%
Exactly you want America to continue as a constitutional republic get these nut jobs off the hill! Who ever thought that the Muslims would protest in the halls of congress?
Of course
TRUMP 2020………….
Demoncraps only survive on Voter Fraud in Blue Counties that sway state results. GOP does not do much about it in most places.
So well said. And you are right, GOP never does anything serious to stop these crimes committed by the left. There is so much proof out there but after Holder allowed the New Black Panthers to intimidate voters in the 2009 election without any charges was the time I knew Elections were rigged and there was nothing normal Americans can do about it. So sad the ones who so called represent us does nothing more then whine but that’s about it. Why do these states allow such disturbing and UN-Constitutional law breaking behavior every time. Numbers just don’t add up. But then you could live in my state that has decided to find the left wing nut job Judge to take our voting rights away if it is a bill they really want which usually means costing us up the butt in new taxes. Heck, I know we did not have a vote to become a Sanctuary City to all illegals. Or where now carrying small amounts of ANY type of drug is now acceptable and will be allowed and ignored by police.
Scary times…
