Those are some pretty alarming numbers. Vote them all out.
It's Sooo god awful! Have you listened to the likes of Lake in Az? And her fervent supporters shaking their heads in agreement? 
There only one word for it: "cult"...

I guarantee that Kemp from GA is on that list.   In his debate with Abrams she accused him of being a full time vote suppressor.  Yet this is the woman who loudly claimed that she was robbed four years ago!  Who are you going to vote for then?  Is Newsome without any baggage?  I'm not sure if Feinstein is running, but are you going to vote for her, she is an election result denier:

Jim,
You're confusing and conflating different issues. First, with Abrams, she is alleging voter suppression and that is not the same as election fraud. Second, with Feinstein, who BTW is not running, is alleging election interference by Russia, which they in fact did do, and not voter fraud.

Not at all semantics. Clinton acknowledged and conceded Trump won the presidency in 2016. For Abrams, she clearly stated, “But my assessment is that the law currently allows no further viable remedy.” Trump, on the other hand, never conceded and still maintains the 2020 election was fraudulent even if after SIXTY courts threw out his frivolous claims.  Neither he, or his cult of followers, respect the election process or the decisions of these courts so, in anything, it is Trump and his followers that are insulting the constitution and damaging people's faith in the electoral process.

Your Democrat Stacy Abrams still runs around saying the Brian Kemp election  in GA, was stolen from her.  Hilary Clinton wrote an entire book about it.  Al Gore and every other Democrat questioned the GWB win in 2000. 

Do you have anything else except your tired worn out excuses about Trump?

BTW, you guys are going your asses handed to you on a plate in about 20 days.  Deal with it, and when you lose in historic numbers, maybe you'll get a clue then just how fringe and how unpopular that you and the rest of the ULTRA Left Socialist Democrats are in this country.  
Funny how the Jan 6th commision did all that by calling in Republican witnesses...

The Jan 6th commision will likely issue a criminal referral to the DOJ. The DOJ can decide to indict and proceed on its own without one. Ultimately, the decision will be made by Garland.

That is insanity.  If the Democrats lose (or lose big) it will be because of the economy.   

The economy is not entirely a left/right thing.  You probably have noticed that the Conservatives have flamed out spectacularly in Great Britain.  Their economy is far far far worse than ours.  It is disaster the likes of which have not been seen in recent times.  The British economy crapped under conservative policies, and the Conservatives are going to be obliterated in the general election that will be called shortly.   Did the Conservatives cause 10% inflation in Britain?  Probably not entirely, but they are going to pay for it with historic election defeats.  Did Biden cause US inflation?  Well, he and his predecessor did in part, but there are all sorts of causes at play.  That pandemic thing.  A war.  Blame can be shared.  But if anyone has to pay for it, it is the party in power.  That is the way it works.  We will see if the Ds pay, but if they do it is not a repudiation of the Ds, it is just cold hard political reality.

Jim
In September, Larry Kudlow, Trump's former top economic adviser and an ongoing Fox news favorite, praised the economic plan of the conservative party of Britain and its PM as looking remarkably similar to Kevin McCarthy's Republican plan known as the "Commitment To America".  The outcome is ongoing misery...

All of his wonderful shovel ready gov't jobs didn't amount to a hill of beans now did it.

So then, since you think that allowing the gov't to grab the reigns, choose winners and losers when it comes to business, and that plan will work, then explain any time in history when spending into oblivion brought any nation out of their problems and into prosperity.

Provide 1 or 2 examples please, because the fallacy of spending your way out of a recession is a fantasy of the left, period.  
FDR took America OUT of of the great depression: you need to go back and study American history. Start with the "New Deal"...
Then, take a look at the current infrastructure bill, you know, the one from Biden that provides funding for all sorts of shovel ready projects from roads to bridges, and the same ones Republicans are claiming credit for after voting against the bill...

Gee, I wonder how much it would have dropped under Trump? Afterall, he did say, "I alone can fix it"...
