Oh, yes, very impressive numbers!
However, in reality, pretty much meaningless. The TOTAL number of votes cast does nothing to elect anybody. ONLY the votes in each individual contest have meaning. ONLY those votes can elect or not elect a candidate.
I notice a glaring omission: Where are the numbers for "Third Party" candidates? Have the "Third Party" votes cast increased or decreased over the last 6 years? If they have increased, does this indicate a growing discontent with the major parties?
Why don't you be honest and tell the WHOLE story?
I provided a link. That's as honest as it gets. I didn't say that total votes mattered in terms of individual contests, but what it shows is that the Democratic Party received far more total votes from American voters in the last election was much more preferred than the conservative party. This matters. This means that the average American voter wanted a Democrat as Senator, A Democrat as House Rep, and a Democrat as President.
So when conservatives lie and say Americans wanted the conservatives to be in charge of the House, well not during the last election. The majority of Americans voters cast a ballot for a Democrat in the House, that is objective reality.

Not only that but Obama received 94-95% of the black vote and much of the Hispanic vote. So that means that many blacks voted for Obama because it was race based and many like the socialistic policies of the Democrats. Hispanics like the amnesty plans for their ethnic group here illegally that Obama and the Democrats are pushing. And yet this is a surprise in the difference of votes between the two parties and their candidates? Instead the GOP hater you are replying to would have us believe that the GOP candidates have gotten fewer votes based on something inherently sinister? What's sinister about wanting people to work rather than collecting welfare? What is sinister about wanting our immigration laws respected and enforced?

They rather Americans work than draw welfare? Then propose not pushing, signing, endorsing and above all seeking anymore NAFTA agreements. Stand apart from democrats in this regard and the republican party might get somewhere. But that will never happen, because they are the architects.
"Healthcare.gov web site opening day sucked."
I'm wondering what they are going to run with the next time? "You didn't build that." Remember that one?
What have they done lately? I think of that sometimes. "We obstructed, real good." Maybe they can run with that.
I can't think of 1 thing in the last year that had a positive spin for Republicans.

NAFTA was implemented by Clinton. In all fairness when are the Democrats going to end it? NAFTA isn't the only thing hurting American job opportunities so why are the Democrats pushing for an amnesty for millions of illegal aliens?

I agree with you. However republicans implemented it, Clinton signed it. But that is just a pissing contest, both parties are involved with sending millions of jobs to 3rd world and communist countries. Both parties want amnesty for illegals, one wants the vote, one wants the cheap labor. Can not hoodwink the natives for ever.

I've always felt NAFTA should be chalked up to "it seemed like a good idea at the time." We tried it, it's failed America, and it's time to end our participation in it.
Big uncontrolled spending and extreme waste and more people living off fewer and fewer taxpayers is not a positive at all. The Democrats have zero positives.
