Joe Manchin won West Virginia. No pick up for the Republicans in West Virginia where Trump won by 30+ points. Manchins support of Brett Kavanaugh helped him secure the victory.
I live in West Virginia and have said all along Manchin would win re election.I said it a year ago....six months ago...six days ago...yesterday.
I didn't vote for him but I don't know anyone here who expected him to lose.I don't know why so many people from other states expected any other result?
While West Virginia often goes for the R candidate for president its still an uphill battle in statewide elections for other positions.The only reason we have a republican governor is because he ran and was elected as a democrat and then switched parties......
No but now they are praising Trump for the caravan angle
Funny. CNN after the totally irrelevant “exit polling” were saying the caravan angle was the reason Trump lost it for the Republicans. Maybe next election they will do away with exit polls.
Sure but it’s expected. It’s normal for mid terms when one party has complete control to lose at least one body of govt. this is just normal. Not a wave. Dems went anti Trump. It did not work. Illegal immigration is a huge issue that the Dems ignore.
I agree, the President has lost 28 House seats per midterms since World War II.
