    I believe that better than 90% of the population want change, but the candidates don't give the majority of the change that people are really looking for. So too many on both sides of the aisle plug their nose, per se, and choose to vote for the incumbents.

    Honestly, Trump, Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, Kamala Harris, McConnell, and so, so many other older than dirt politicians all need to go away. Far, far away! They are all bad for America.

    Because we have no third alternative, a Red Wave is a must on November 8th. RCP says the GOP has 227 in the House right now with 34 up for grabs. And they say the GOP has 48 in the Senate with 8 up for grabs. The House is nearly a foregone conclusion, but just how many seats switch is the biggest question. The Senate will be close.

    My confidence in the election comes down to the question of timing for results. For nearly every election in my life (take out Bush/Gore), results were know by the time people went to bed. That is every election until 2020. Counts taking all night or even days when they used to be finished in hours after polls closed prior to 2020 has to be called into question by everyone. I am not saying Trump won. But, I will surely question our electoral process when there is reason to question it. And before some of you go off the deep end on me. I am not MAGA. I am not a Trumpian and don't support Trump to return to politics. I don't listen to Trump and never have.

    In PA - they have over 1m mail in ballot to count
    Republicans would not change the laws to let them start counting, let alone opening them, prior to election day. So getting a result same day in PA will be impossible

    Watch and see how vote numbers start changing after they know how many more ballots they need to get Fetterman in office.

    Yep

    If Fetterman wins - it is because the dems cheated (not because Oz was a bad candidate)
    If Oz wins, it is because the lead was too large for the dems to successfully cheat

    Great thing about conspiracy theories is that no matter what happens, you can make up the theory to match up what happened.

    Have you figured out yet that the fraud in Philly nar in 2020 that you were sold was debunked BS, since Trump did better in Philly in 2020 vs 2016? or do you still clutch to that one?

    This will actually shock you, but I am voting for Oz, so not buying into the neverending election fraud BS from both sides doesn't make one a lib or a Trumper. Just tired of the lies

    Well it is not over until the weight challenged lady sings. Never underestimate the voter fraud network the Biden bragged about.

    That is a failure on Pennsylvania in the enactment of mail in ballots.

    We already know:

    -If a Republican loses, they'll claim the election was stolen from them.
    -If a Republican wins, they have a mandate and won despite Dems trying to steal the election from them.

    We also know that the gloating will be insane, should the Republicans take the House, or even the Senate.

    My feeling: The GOP will take the House and the Senate. Trump will claim that this happened because HE endorsed those candidates. He will reveal that he'll run in 2024 soon after.

    I miss the old way we voted: Go to the polls or absentee only. It was better before and more secure. PA has to much nonsense that smells of cheating and rigging. Especially when they got rid of signiture matching.

    Most secure elections in history. Yea, right.

    The only way the Rs take the Senate is that they win two of the four States that are tight currently. Georgia, Pennsylvania, Nevada or Ohio.

    The Ds will have easy victories in the States where abortion currently has certain bans in place.

    Um... Apparently you've been ignoring the rhetoric from the left already claiming election fraud as it's looking like many seats will be lost.

    6 election security threats to watch for on Election Day

    “More attention to securing voting systems hasn’t eliminated critical technical and human threats to our elections,” said Matthew Weil, executive director of the Bipartisan Policy Center’s Democracy Program. “And this cycle is practice for 2024.”

    That is just it, Democrats are not moving to secure elections or moving towards integrity, they want to eliminate signiture matching and they do not want voter ID because it makes cheating in elections a lot harder.

    Republicans blueprint to steal election: Show up at the polls and vote.
    Democrats blueprint to steal election: Voter fraud and ballot box stuffing.

    Predictions:
    1 Republicans will win control of both House and Senate
    2 They will blame Joe Biden for every bit of bad news for the next two years and will take credit for any good news in the next two years
    3 Republicans will complain about “election fraud” in places they don’t win, much more than Democrats will in places they don’t win

    The real question is, "Will the left learn from this, or will they simply double down on failed policies"? My bet is the DNC is incapable of learning and attract like-minded followers..
