I see another former Democrat chose to vote Republican this time

The radical Republican agenda to ban abortion, end fair elections, slash environmental regulations, raise drug prices, destroy social security, and crush worker power is as dangerous as it is unpopular with voters.
They are already openly working on doing all of the above.

The already have control of the Supreme Court. If they get control of Congress, we can kiss our Social Security and Medicare good-bye.
If enough states become controlled by Republicans, they will call for a Constitutional Convention. That will be the end of this experiment.

The Democratic party, by allowing their senile and demented standard bearer to dismiss inflation as a nothing burger, will encourage Democrats on fixed incomes to act like one issue voters.

People who have their life savings in government bonds, CD’s and similar means of storing the funds they depend on for expenses, feel like the Democratic party robbed them. Ditto that for those on fixed pensions (no COLA).

They might not feel that way had the guy who was instrumental in their loss not laughed in their face, like a psychotic mugger would.

Joe Biden is out of his mind, has always lived a life of privilege by way of being important in government, and has a depraved indifference to the suffering of ordinary Americans that have been hurt by high inflation.

The Democrats choose to leave him in place, and to not even try to reason with him. Karma will deal with that, same as it did with Republicans who chose to let Bush and Cheney get away with destroying Iraq.

@jbnw,

I think the governorship of Oregon is going to become a Republican pickup.

This would mark the first time for the GOP to win this office since 1982.

Prior to U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 report, which includes population changes, Oregon is allocated with 5 congressional districts. Following the report, Oregon moves up to 6. The Democrats currently have an allocation of 4–1. The Republicans are likely to flip the state’s 5th Congressional District. This will change the allocation to 4-2 in favor for the Democrats. What this will also mean, for the Democrats in Oregon, is going from 80 to 66.66 percent.

Oregon is a part of this 2022 trajectory—and what I think will be a national wave—against the incumbent Democratic Party and in the direction for the White House opposition Republican Party.

I don’t believe there is any good point to voting Republican as such (unless the candidate really does represent you on issues that matter to you), but I understand why some people want to do it. I won’t be voting Democratic at all in this election or any other one – not sure who I will vote for. Maybe write in FDR.
