That means that Republicans have only Won 2 out of the last 8 Presidential Elections since then.

You seriously can't sit there and blame the Media or Early Voting as to why the last Popularly Elected Republican President was 35 years ago.

Ever think it might be the quality of the Candidates the GOP has put forth so far that doesn't appeal to regular Americans?
Quality of candidates is utterly terrible on either side. The GOP is off message on issues. People vote party, not candidate and until the GOP figures this out it will continue to have its head handed to it.

The media will twist, spin, pivot, deny, denounce, make up, stretch, obscure and outright LIE about anything and everything to install their chosen one.



It has always been an uphill battle for any Republican.
Then why don't the Republicans have early voting and late late counting? Then when they are done counting, we can find some extra votes somewhere to put us over the top and wah-lah, we win!

Bidenomics appears to be causing conservatives to all go broke.

While this quote may not be eloquent, it's still true:

Quote:
“There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what…who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims. …These are people who pay no income tax. I’ll never convince them that they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.”
This is the reason the presidential voting map looks the way it does. Blue voters clustered in big cities. Surrounded by a sea of red counties nationwide. We have slowly become a nation of folks that rely heavily on the government to raise them.

People making poor life choices actually benefit at times from government intervention. High school drop outs, unwed mothers, substance addicted the chronically idle all have social programs that benefit their self destructive choices. So they will vote for the party that will maintain or increase their reliance on the feds for their wellbeing.

yes unfortunately you're probably right but not because of the candidates but because the left NEED Biden to win and they will do what they have to to make it happen. It's already been said by FBI that they NEED Biden to win. They will get him in.

Biden/Dem voters have proven beyond any doubt that they are dumber than a bag of rocks, so it actually makes sense for Biden to exploit their stupidity.

It's called ballot harvesting, & if the Pubs don't ramp it up, they'll never win again.

Only way to stop it is to end mail-in voting, & that would hurt indigents. Funny how they never get around to counting military votes though.

As for the election: unless the rest of us can find a way to remove the cloak the left has placed around the election process and remove their monopoly, the election results have already been decided.
If they do it again, America will snap. Thankfully, many states changed back their election laws, post covid, to reduce mail in ballots, which slows the Dems ballot harvesting machine.

The next election should be mostly fair.

Not just conservatives. The average net worth of Americans on average is down. Everyone has been getting the Joe Biden financial and standard of living haircut/readjustment. Unfortunately, democrats FAAFO by electing a dementia case to highest office of the land, and we are all suffering as a result.

What a preposterous response! You are basically saying that the DEMS are all broke hence why the Win Elections.
So only the Poor vote for Democrats? Explain why all of the Poorest States are all RED ones then?
