Things were fine last time around.
If republicans lose again, it's still fair and square losses, sorry.
On the other hand, I do sense Republicans will do better in 2022 than they did in 2020, which will make them stop complaining that the election was rigged.
So that's a positive. If y'all win, suddenly Dominion isn't cheating, and the results are accurate.
And I believe if the democrats lose, they will nod their heads in dismay, and agree the results are accurate. Because that's how they roll. In general, democrats understand technology and systems, and don't imagine goblins are there in voting booths stealing the elections from the voters.

I'm not technologically savvy enough to do it, but someone needs to post the 25 minute long clip of Democrats denying election results in 2000, 2004, 2016, etc.

That’s certainly not how they roll as they’ve goosechased because Trump and impeachment nonsense soon started after poor Hillary lost…and let’s not forget this. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1238156

I have no confidence in the majority of republicans. Most will be absorbed into the machine and/or lose the next election. A handful will realize what a cesspool Congress really is and exit on principle. Few will have the courage and fortitude to carry on.
At best We the People get a brief respite from the brazen insanity that is today's left.

Even in the best case scenario for Republicans, they are going to lose races in many of the solidly blue states and districts. There are likely to be voices declaring that the elections in (for example) Massachusetts, Maryland, Hawaii and California are rigged, and their message will get amplified by the key right-leaning media personalities. It would take Democrats getting literally zero votes nationwide for such messaging to stop.
I haven't been following the rest except Oz/Fetterman. I'm hoping Oz wins, and I donated to his campaign. He's a smart guy, a little eccentric, but he will do well for the people of Pennsylvania. Fetterman is a phony + he's literally brain damaged. The only reason he's not losing hard is the media and some people just vote straight ticket.
This will be a high turnout election on both sides, I'm not paying much attention to the polls, I don't think they have a handle on who is a Likely voter and who is just a Registered voter. The Early Vote so far is historically high...what does that mean got me...traditionally the early vote favors Dems. But Virginia had a very large early vote in 2021 and the Republican won Governor. Neither side should be feeling comfortable right now. Here is good write up from the Cook Political Report.
The Midterms May Come Down to the Last Gust of Political Wind

You need to watch each and every second of it.
In 2000 Gore lost by 500 votes. If any election results should be denied that was the one. Of course Gore challenged it but once it was decided that was the end of it. He didn't go on a pity tour, with this stop the steal BS and encourage his supporters to deny Bush's legitimacy. His supporters didn't storm the Capitol to stop the counting of electoral votes. This is the difference. There are always people who deny the results because their guy didn't win. What matters is that these candidates accept their loss and move on instead of trying to divide us because they can't accept their defeat.
I agree but think GOP will come in with 245-249 House seats, and either 52 or 53 Senate seats. Plus 30-32 governorships.
The House breakdown of 247 R/188 D after the 2014 midterms was the strongest for Republicans since before the Great Depression. It would be no small feat to exceed this, but there are a huge number of #MAGA Republicans who didn't vote before Trump entered politics and now will never miss an election. The Democratic base will likely show up more than during the Obama midterms, but that won't help them if independents swing further right.
