Even ignoring the large margin changes in the Rio Grande border counties the dems did not get the numbers they needed to get out of Harris County (Houston) getting only a +1% change in margin from 2016 at 96% reporting. The very large increase in turnout did not impact the margins here.

My whole extended family voted Trump. About half are traditional non-voters. Same thing the cubans fell for in Miami. One-note message about socialism and other stupid shit.

Facebook and online video games is the death of democracy.

Poll testing.

Basic Constitutional law, civics, and modern events.

Inbreds and Pelosi voters should be held to at least the same standard as legal immigrants.
