It's fake if it is given as some sort of proof that the electorate is turning or starkly different then last year.

If you want to argue about the term fake, then let's say the tenor of the opinion pieces is another reason why many, including me, see an immense bias in the media.

The fact that the expected winners won is not fake news. To make more of it then that either is a display of opinionated bias, or falsehoods disguised as fact.

While the districts voted the same way in terms of winner/losers, the voter turnout was higher for both the Democratic and Republican candidates.

In 2013, approximately 2,240,000 voters participated in the gubernatorial election.
In 2017, approximately 2,600,000 voters participated in the gubernatorial election.

While both major candidate parties gained significant votes, the Dems gained almost 350K in votes, while the Republican gained only 150K (meanwhile, Libertarian candidate went from 140K to 12K.

I would suggest Trump's 2016 win was fueled in some party by significant voter apathy from the left. Pretty sure that ain't happening in 2020. Not sure what the next three years hold, but pretty sure the country is going to continue with its polarization.

My prediction: Increased chauvinism on the right, increased identity politics on the left, and a continued decline in intellectual debate and the competition of ideas.

I agree about the apathy, but I also think it was fueled by the demonization of those who hold values contrary to the progressive movement's appointed ones. I think that and a growing economy will push more away from the extreme wing of the Democratic party that has overtaken it.

With that being said, your a stinkhead, and you write too many big words so your bad!!!:cheeky:

Nah, Obama's was garbage. Trump is the real deal.

Economy > literally everything else. He could come out and say white people are the master race and nothing would change.
