  • If you want to feel better about the election, here's an idea: turn off the news! As much as we want instant results, our Founders understood that there needed to be a system that could withstand the kind of political divisions we have today. Thankfully, despite the media's insistence that they call the shots, that's not how it works. There is a process for close and uncertain elections, and we need to let the process work. Because once the rule of law is gone, you can kiss fair and free elections goodbye. . There are radical forces out there who will do whatever it takes to stop Donald Trump from winning a second term. Maybe there isn't widespread fraud taking place, but there are enough anomalies to warrant questions being ask and answers being attained. Take the success Republicans had on Tuesday in the state legislatures, for example. In one of the most unreported storylines of 2020, conservatives had a huge night locally. Despite outspending Republicans three-to-two on statehouse races, Democrats didn't pick up control of a single legislature (so far, only Arizona is too close to call). That means that Republicans kept their historic lead of controlling 29 state legislatures to the Democrats' 18. . In other words, Republicans had banner wins in the House, possibly the Senate, and the states -- but the president of the same party didn't? Something doesn't add up. That's what the White House and other conservatives want to get to the bottom of. Even House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) agreed that all of these indicators point to a different outcome than we're seeing on the electoral map. "Republicans will not back down" on defending this election's integrity, he vowed. . That's great, you're thinking, but what happens now? Well, there are several scenarios. .

  • They say waiting is the hardest part. But they were wrong. Waiting is much worse when the messaging is controlled by a radical media with no interest in a fair outcome. For 48 hours, Americans have been glued to their televisions anxiously hoping for accurate updates on this nail-biter of a presidential race. What they've gotten instead is a torrent of commentary about the ridiculousness of President Trump questioning the results or laying claim to contested ballots. Worse, some outlets -- like the AP -- are calling anyone who draws attention to the irregularities liars. If you believe in transparency, you're a "conspiracy theorist." If you think there are anomalies to investigate, you're in denial. And yet the media -- who’s gotten everything dead wrong for five years -- still thinks we should trust their judgment? No thank you. Our country is swimming in a sea of unknowns right now -- and maybe by the end of it, Joe Biden will lay claim to our highest office. But we're a long way from knowing that with certainty -- and certainty is what Americans, with so much at stake, deserve. As Ken Blackwell reminded everyone on @WashingtonWatch today, "One of the brilliant aspects of our two-party system and our constitutional republic is that elections work best and have the confidence of the people when there is transparency and bipartisan oversight. When there is a lack of transparency, and partisanship in the administration of an election -- not bipartisanship, but partisanship -- you undercut not only the authenticity of the result, you undercut the buy-in to the result by those who are governed." In other words, it's to the benefit of everyone -- including Joe Biden and his supporters -- that these questions are answered, and that voters are reassured that this election was done by the book. Maybe some of us won't like the outcome, but we need to be able to trust the outcome. Instead, the media -- who's spent the last five years doing everything they can to undermine and vilify Donald Trump, whether it was Russian collusion or Ukraine -- wants to give fuel to another false narrative that there's nothing in this election to dispute! .

  • FRC Action PAC endorsed 150 candidates who are or will be champions for life and Christian values in Congress. Of those champions, 119 have won their races, while 13 lost (in 18 races, the winner hasn't been declared). Of the 92 True Blue Members of Congress FRC Action PAC endorsed, only one, Sen. Martha McSally (R-Ariz.), has lost her race. One highlight is the Montana Senate race, where my friend Sen. Steve Daines (R) effectively survived a challenge from the Dem. Governor Steve Bullock, who has consistently vetoed pro-life legislation during his time as governor. Rep. Ann Wagner (R-Mo.), the sponsor of the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, won her race despite being named as one of the Democrats' top targets. And pro-life champion Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) defeated high profile abortion activist and former state senator Wendy Davis by seven percentage points in a race the New York Times called a "tossup." Adding to the number of pro-life women in the U.S. House, Minnesota State Senator Michelle Fischbach defeated an incumbent in Minnesota's 7th District; she was endorsed by FRC Action PAC. State legislative results are slow to come in, but by Wednesday afternoon Republicans had retained "trifectas" (single-party control) in 4 states (Georgia, Iowa, Nebraska, and West Virginia) where Democrats thought they were vulnerable. They also retained the Republican legislature in North Carolina. Continuing a decade-long trend, largely pro-life Republicans continue to dominate state governments; they will continue to hold single-party control in at least 20 states at this hour, and control both legislative chambers in at least five additional states where the governor is Democrat. By comparison, Wednesday afternoon Democrats had single-party control in only 10 states and controlled two additional legislatures in states with a Republican governor. Control of state legislatures will be especially important over the next two years, as they are tasked with re-drawing congressional districts to reflect the 2020 Census. In this way, they can shape the composition of Congress by drawing more districts to be winnable by a Democrat or Republican. frcaction.org

  • It might be one of the most underreported narratives of Tuesday night, but when the dust settles, the GOP will have significantly outperformed in the U.S. House. Both parties, Politico points out, thought the congressional races would be a bloodbath. Democrats were supposed to win "a dozen seats in the House," they explain, "and knock off a whole host of Republican incumbents." Guess what? Those projections, like all the rest, were completely wrong. Instead, it was Republicans beating Democrats -- and, more importantly, Democratic incumbents. "They beat Minnesota Rep. Collin Peterson after a few decades of trying," reporters announced. They stunned in liberal strongholds like Miami, knocking off Debbie Mucarsel-Powell and Donna Shalala. In places like Staten Island, South Carolina, and New Mexico, the wins came tumbling in for Republicans. "And, to add insult to injury, the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, Rep. Cheri Bustos, is struggling to hang on to her Illinois district." "So much for the election landslide," the Wall Street Journal proclaimed. "We defied the odds," House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told reporters triumphantly. After wasting a year on bogus impeachment charges and refusing to negotiate on any legislation of substance, the country's message to Democrats seems to be: Start doing your jobs, or we'll give them to someone else. For pro-lifers, who've been battling the most extreme abortion agenda in history, the GOP's upsets are especially good news. The more they chip away at the Left's majority, the better likelihood of success on things like the discharge petition of the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. Depending on where the final numbers end up, Republicans may finally be able to force a vote to stop legal infanticide. That, in itself, would be a major win for the unborn. Of course, the biggest prize of the night was the U.S. Senate, where liberal activists had pumped tens of millions of dollars into defeating the #GOP. But outspent, Americans quickly learned, does not mean outgunned. Continue reading in the comments below. frcaction.org

  • Even though we can't announce the next president, we can declare a few losers, and the people who counted out conservatives should top every list. Tuesday night was not the epic collapse of Donald Trump and the Republican Party that the media had been dreaming about. It was, however, the last gasp of credibility for the national polling industry. Anyone who gave the big firms a pass after the embarrassment of 2016 will not make that mistake after this year, when the fairytale prophecies of 17-point leads for Joe Biden in competitive states like Wisconsin turned out to be more fools' gold. Even the morning of the race, when some survey houses were starting to flip states to Trump, the New York Times stubbornly insisted -- with 70 percent certainty -- that Biden would win Florida. Other mainstream pollsters conjured ridiculous numbers for Senate Democrats, giving the GOP only between a five to 20-percent chance of maintaining control. Wednesday morning, with five seats in play, Republicans were leading in every one. Whatever their reasons -- whether they didn't want to validate Trump's popularity, or they wanted to suppress the vote, or they're so blinded by their hatred for this president that they can't count straight -- the polling industry had a major reckoning Tuesday. And their survival will depend a lot on whether they can set aside their blatantly partisan agendas and adapt, like Trafalgar has, to the rapidly changing landscape. Americans don't trust the media, Tucker Carlson said emphatically, and they have good reason: they were wrong. "Is the polling industry dead? You know, I really hope so. [You have to be able to say] you screwed up, and you have to acknowledge it in order to get better. But we in the media are particularly good at pretending that there's some reason that we mislead our viewers or our readers -- and we really should stop doing that because too much is at stake. And the first way to fix it is by holding the people who screwed up accountable." Continue reading at frcaction.org . . . . #election2020 #Polls #media
