Why is it always the unions fault? WTF. Zeldin won in Nassau, and Suffolk. I guess there are no unions out here?
Agreed, the NYC Dems (not all, of course) who have also voted in inept folks like DeBlasio (Twice!) are simply looking for a Dem. And Horchul fit the bill.
The republicans would have won easily if they ran a better candidate, a Trump supported election denier was a poor choice. Inflation rate at 8% this should have been easy.

It wasn’t easy, really, anywhere except Florida. In PA, Oz wasn’t a great candidate but he lost to a vegetable. Arizona isn’t finalized but it looks like the gubernatorial candidate Lake will lose to someone who, like Biden, didn’t even campaign or debate. The Dems picked up a few other seats nationwide that they were expected to lose, or were at least tight races. The GOP just underperformed.
- The GOP itself is still run by the establishment cucks like McConnell who hate populist Republicans and did not support these candidates at all. Conversely, the Democrats threw full support behind their candidates, blowing hundreds of millions on proven losers like Beto and Abrams.
- Likewise, said GOP is schilling for DeSantis to run in 2024, so they can get back to business as usual (IE screwing over their voters in favor of big business that no longer votes Republican anyway). The narrative all over is that DeSantis is the future.
- NY has a majority Democratic voter base, and they’re loyal to party. That’s nearly impossible to overcome, no matter how annoyed people are at inflation. California and other blue strongholds continue to vote blue no matter how bad things are getting there. Cities in far worse shape than NYC (Detroit, Baltimore, DC, etc.) have never stopped voting for democrats.
- Red states are getting redder, blue states are getting bluer. People who see the writing on the wall are moving. This will lead to a national divorce eventually.
