We democrats were expected to win last night in the 18th Texas Congressional District and we did as the only two remaining candidates were democrats. The vote I am referring to is the vote for a state senate seat in Texas, district 9. No democrat had won this district in the last 35 years. As has been the case in nearly every special election since November 2024 is that democrats have been overperforming pundit expectations in wins and in close losses. The win last night in the special election for state senate was no different. A democrat will old this seat now because of a 15 point victory. Double digit increases for democratic candidates is a trend that is uninterrupted regardless the jurisdiction, win or loss.
The message of these strong democratic gains, even in dark red districts, foretells the inevitable. The trump regime/cabal is in trouble with the electorate nationally. The consistency over many months of democratic strength has to be worrisome to all republican candidates everywhere. They were given notice by we the people that we were not in tune with their democracy destroying agenda but they didn't listen So they pushed forward with their trump agenda and achieved many of their goals. But that cost them and the cost is stifling. We the people have found our voice and with that we are also voting our voice.
This coming midterm election is going to be a rout if republicans do not swiftly reverse themselves and stand on the side of we the people, The republican party has had many opportunities to realign their agenda but have been cowed into submission by trump. We the people will not be cowed and those who are cowed will find that they no longer have the majority support of we the voters. The blue wave election I referred to in the title is as real as it gets and will spare no one who is still standing in front of it. Know this, the blue wave is happening. What we don't know as of yet is how crushing it will be. I wouldn't bet against it being so massive that an absolute crushing of republicanism is its effect!
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
