Rep Crowley gets primaried

[Sun Devil 92]

Looks like the democrats have decided they need to go far left to win.

Never heard of him. Most powerful?

Btw I wanted to ask you what you are seeing on the aground for the Missouri Senate race

McCaskill is going to get trashed.

It looks like AZ holds Flake's seat.

Needless to say...I am pleased.

Time to push those illegals south of the border.

It's HUGE.
10 Term Crowley got beat.
He was 4th most powerful in House, perhaps next speaker.

He was beat from the LEFT by a Hispanic Sanders aid.
Like the GOP, looks like we have a Dem Tea Party.

Fantastic... as we know the Dems didn't vote for the Hilldabeast cus she wasn't liberal enough.. NOT lol, didn't they learn anything in 16? One would think that they would try to regain their voters who voted for Trump by sprinting to the center...

 

[Papageorgio]

This is great news for the Democrats, many lefties on this board were excited that so many women were running for offices this election cycle and it looks like they are impacting the election.

It may just be that the 14th District doesn’t look like Crowley anymore. According to the U.S. Census, there are 26,002 people of Irish descent in the district. There are 71,531 of Puerto Rican descent. Overall, the district is 49 percent Hispanic, 23 percent white, 17 percent Asian and 9 percent black.

Top Democrat Crowley loses in shocker

Think about this for a moment before you extrapolate

NY-14 is about as stark a dichotomy as you’ll find in a Democratic primary. Crowley is 56, Ocasio-Cortez is 28. Crowley is of Irish descent, Ocasio-Cortez is of Puerto Rican descent. Crowley is the former chairman of the New Democrat Coalition, a group of moderates; Ocasio-Cortez is a die-hard progressive. And Crowley is the No. 4 Democrat in the U.S. House and is often mentioned as a future speaker.

Wow! Big Trump Hater Congressman Joe Crowley, who many expected was going to take Nancy Pelosi’s place, just LOST his primary election. In other words, he’s out! That is a big one that nobody saw happening. Perhaps he should have been nicer, and more respectful, to his President!


Wooooooow an adult talks like this? A president? Wtf? There are people that actually cheering for this?
Jesus please come fast...we need to wrap this up.

 

[LoneLaugher]

Trump likes this result because he doesn't know that Crowley lost to a person who will be even less nice to him. He's a moron.

And Pogo, congressional members all vote on matters which effect all of us. So being interested in elections in other districts is perfectly reasonable.

they've been calling it; pandering to the progressive base, the whole time.

anyone deemed just a liberal is doomed, the kids growing up now are so damn crazy, trump might be the last "republican" Pres ever.

 

[Mac1958]

It gets even more interesting now.

Trumpsters vs. Democratic Socialists. Holy shit.

Yeah, I stopped reading POTUS tweets over a year ago and don't even bother to read about his tweets. It's like reading immature 5th grade graffiti on a bathroom wall. And sadly, folks do cheer this on.

Yeah try convincing middle America that they have to give up more and more for the "good" of the country. I believe we are going to see a resurgence of the Blue Dog Democrats.

I doubt that would have won him the primary.

If you get beaten by someone more on the left, going right isn't going to win you anything.
