2. Donks lose seats in the Virginia state house.
3. San Francisco's Sanctuary Sheriff gets booted.
4. Conks take over the governor's office in Kentucky.
5. A black female Tea Partier wins the Lt. Governor's race in Kentucky as well.



Eh, PA Supreme Court is a bit of a joke (well, a lot of Pennsylvania politcs is as well, so no significant difference there).

Donks have always been the party of Big Gubbermint. There is no doubt they have positioned themselves to be the party of big business as well.kalm wrote:The Democratic Party has become the party of big business AND big government.
Nice positioning.![]()

Almost all of the big businesses are and have mostly been Donk controlled. Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon...all the way into Big Healthcare, Big Media - Viacom, Comcast, Disney, CBS, Universal, etc.
Though Conks have been bought before, they have never really been the party of Big Business. Conks have mostly always been the party of small business and entrepreneurs.

The GOP has a stranglehold on both houses in the legislature in PA, though, and have been at loggerheads with Wolf already. I'm not sure how this tips the balance one way or not - I don't see the GOP control of the legislature ending anytime soon and Wolf may or may not be in office after the next election, depending who the GOP comes up with (they've had some real bad candidates for governor as of late). But yes, judicial elections, especially for something as high as the state supreme court, is pretty goofy.Ivytalk wrote:It's no "eh-ing matter."GannonFan wrote:

When a governor or a legislature has an "agenda," the importance should be obvious. If these new Donk justices are just going to carry water for Governor Wolf, and consider themselves an arm of a political branch of government, you could be in for a long four years.
