Did John Cornyn really beat MJ Hegar? I have had doubts about this from the start.
Did Jamie Harrison really lose by 10 points to Lindsey Graham? I have my doubts here, too. I think the margin could have been much slimmer, and maybe even within recount territory if everyone who wanted to vote did.
Was Soooozie really nine points stronger than Gideon? Really so?
Did Theresa Greenfield really lose by 8 points to Ernst?
Less than 2 points between Cunnigham and Tillis has a bit of smell to it, dontcha think?
The list goes on. Is all of this a portent of 2022?
The GQP has some major blockages in place.
I think voting protection legislation is more important than the infrastructure legislation, although getting infrastructure could pave the way for voting help by allowing the Senate to work.
