LordoftheMorons 02/02/21 8:15:26 PM #103:	I think 2022 is a neutral map at best. Last I looked at it I wanna say there were like three Dems that seemed to me to be vulnerable (and I don't remember if that was counting Warnock's seat or not) and maybe four winnable seats (though I think most of those would be uphill). Combine that with the incumbent's party usually losing ground in the midterms and having no margin for error and it's gonna be tough. --- Congrats to azuarc, GotD2 Guru champ! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:950212987] in Politics C...

LordoftheMorons 02/02/21 8:16:34 PM #104:	Suprak the Stud posted... It would be a "fine" map if not for the fact it was a midterm election and the democrats hold the presidency. Historically that tends to suck. Although I thought the same thing about Georgia so I'll just keep reverse jinxing the democrats with my pessimism at this point! Toomey is retiring and there is one more seat in a Biden won state with zero states up for democrats in states that Biden lost. I think the biggest concerns for dems are NH and NV. Particularly with how close NV was in 2020. The Dem seat most in danger is definitely Warnock's, but yeah NV, NH, and AZ are also all potential R pickups (I guess that answers my question as to whether or not my three counted Georgia... unfortunately not!) --- Congrats to azuarc, GotD2 Guru champ! <cite>LordoftheMorons posted [p:950213031] in Politics C...

No, the 2022 Senate map is the "good" one for Dems.

GOP only have 10 seats to defend on this map and those are the best chances lol. 2026 (Class 2 Senators; 2014, 2020) Dems at risk: GA (Ossoff), MI, MN Dem pickup targets: ME (Collins), NC Like maybe the Class 2 map is better now but only because it didn't go as great as hoped in 2020 so there's not much more losses that can be taken there. =/ class 1 map a nightmare tho --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:950213172] in Politics C...

xp1337 02/02/21 8:22:41 PM #111:	Basically, you have to look at the 3 Class maps relative to each other. None are great because the Senate is a bullshit institution that perverts democracy but the Class 3 map may well be least bad and has the most pickup targets left as elections continue to become more and more nationalized and states are locking in across the board. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:950213251] in Politics C...

Suprak the Stud 02/03/21 4:03:07 PM #135:	Well I think it was fair to be worried about Biden paying that more than lip service considering how he was always considered a reach across the aisle kind of guy. I dont think it was unreasonable for people to think he might get nothing done because he was committed to this idea of bipartisanship. Again, I will gladly admit to being wrong if he actually learned his lessons from the Obama administration and winds up being a more successful president because of that. Thats something Id loved to be wrong about and at least the early returns are much more promising than I thought. --- Moops? "I thought you were making up diseases?

The vote tomorrow is to remove her from being on House committees and my understanding is that it can be done with a simple majority vote.
