Kansas's new Congressman Estes underperformed Trump's margin by 20.3 points. If every district behaved like that, Dems would gain 122 (!) House seats next November.

If Hillary had performed in the presidential election in the manner all you lefties predicted she'd be President.

so much trouble they defended the house seat :) I always hear about these "troubles" yet there has not been one election which has flipped.

You always hear about them? Really?

Can you name 3 other times?

They had to pull out all of the stops to get a single-digit win in one of the deepest red places in America, where they won by close to 30% just a few months ago.

That election was a canary in a coal mine. The bird is still alive but it revealed just how toxic for republicans their association with Trump really is.

Default Kansas election offers preview for 2018

And man, is the GOP in for the shellacking of all shellackings.

The Republican won a deep red district - where Trump won by 27% - by 7%. Early voting was through the roof for Democrats.

The left is more energized than they have been in many, many years. They'll trounce in the House. The Senate is set up extremely favorably for Republicans - but I wouldn't be shocked if the Dems picked up seats there, as well.

Trump was probably the best thing that could have happened to Democrats, except for SCOTUS. He'll define the GOP for years. And that's not a good thing for the GOP.

Yep, I do.

Poor bravs. I started my thread after the Kansas election - it was noteworthy that the Republican won by such a thin margin in what is normally safe deep red territory.
