What's the Cause for 2022 Midterm Results  

23 members have voted

  1. 1. Why did the GOP epically underperformed against an unpopular president during high inflation in a midterm election?

    • Trump's campaigning undermind GOP candidates.
    • Too many election deniers for the GOP
    • GOP had questionable, weak candidates
    • It was a Red Wave but the election was rigged for Democrats
      0
    • Voters failed to see the ethical and moral purpose of supporting MAGA Republicanism
    • This result was expected -- Polls had a conservative bias and pundits went with that.
    • Barack Obama campaigned frequently
    • Joe Biden's big speech on the MAGA threat to Democracy
    • Democratic candidates were inherently superior
    • Democrats had stronger, better messaging than Republicans
    • Inflation helped Democrats
      0
    • Overturning of Roe v Wade helped Democrats
    • The threat to Democracy helped Democrats
    • High Crime helped Democrats
    • Nancy Pelosi's election strategy helped Democrats
    • Voters saw the election as Biden vs Trump and preferred Biden
    • Other (You must list a reason below for this to count)

@jvikings1 What's your other?

Bad strategy from GOP "leadership."

They spent millions in Alaska for the Senate seat despite that being a Republican vs Republican battle. Meanwhile, Laxalt (one of the strongest GOP nominees this cycle) was badly in need of funds in Nevada. Plus, "leadership" decided to run a campaign without any clear message. They just shouted inflation and socialism without laying out any sort of plan for if they regained the majority.
