Well done! Elect an official that is likely to be deported because you just elected, "a dictator on day one who wants to deport 20 million people in the first 6 months, with no end in sight."
You're just like Missouri that just ended a statewide abortion ban, only to elect the guy that promised to ban it at the federal level.
Basically your state sold the rest of us out because of your pride, greed, and racism.
Another reason to love her.
Another reason to worry about her being deported
What was the breakdown of the district's vote in the presidential election? I'm surprised that wasn't included in the article. It seems extremely pertinent.
The Associated Press called the race with just 18 percent of the votes counted.
WTF?
Not unusual, and not a bad thing. They called a number of races with less than that. If you're taking your expected percentages with the voting samples you've got and your statistics and calculations say there's less than a 1% chance the race will flip, you might as well call it. They're pretty much never wrong when they make a call that early.
It also doesn't actually matter because the AP isn't who decides the winner.
I do have a problem with it slightly though, calling a result before pokls close elsewhere is problematic. All reporting should be embargoed until the last poll closes.
Not a bad idea, though I'd tweak it to say election officials can't release information, since that preserves freedom of press.
Either way, it's highly unlikely it's ever affected the outcome of an election.
Dont expect the Democrats to learn anything from this because their Billionaire donors would rather they lose by promoting policies that don't threaten profits than win and cost the donors money.
Their billionaire donors don't lose, that's the point. Reps are following the same main purpose of allowing barely restricted capital accumulation.
To know what happens in US politics when the donors are seeing even the distant possiblity of losing one day, ask Black Panthers for example.
