  1. Dan Walsh, the republican candidate went from getting 16.6% in 2024 to just 4.4% in this election.

  2. 95% is insane.

    Recency bias is insane in elections and midterms aren’t until November though. ICE is the hot topic now but it will be something different by the end of the year.

    This district is a blow out every election, in 2024 democrats had 83% of the vote.

    Still, running the numbers up to 95% is just insane…

    For those of us who live in RED States, watch what the GOV and his cronies are attempting to sell – pure bs, straight for DJT colon

    proving that non-magites can walk and chew gum and vote at the same time….well done

  6. Which shows how stupid Trump is. Does he think blue states are going to vote for Republicans because he singles them out for abuse?

  7. Has anyone found turnout numbers? Curious if the uptick was due to more dem votes or fewer rep votes.

  8. Interesting – so do we think that this special election, in part or ulterior motive, caused ICE’s presence?

    I felt a great disturbance in the GOP, as if millions of bungholes suddenly puckered in terror and their bowels were suddenly released.

  10. So I get that this is (hopefully) a solid sign for the midterms, but honestly, 95% is *too* good of a landslide.

    That’s bordering on Putin- and Maduro-level victory numbers, and gives more ammunition for Trump to try to take over the elections due to “fraud”.

    Imagine being the kind of dick who casts a vote for a republican in MN in January 2026

  12. The writing is on the wall for the results of the mid-term election. The majority party should have already lined up their post-Congressional consulting gigs. The remaining clock on this administration is running low.

    >Democrats have **won two special elections** for the Minnesota House of Representatives as the state reels from President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

    >Meg Luger-Nikolai, an attorney, won House District 64A on Tuesday with more than 95 percent of the vote, according to The Associated Press. Her Republican opponent Dan Walsh secured around 4.4 percent.

    >Meanwhile, Shelley Buck, a former president of the Prairie Island Indian Community’s Tribal Council, won an election for House District 47A with 97.6 percent of the vote. Buck ran uncontested in her election.

    💪

  14. Does anyone know the turnout? Like was there more turnout amongst democrats than amongst republicans? Wondering if enthusiasm amongst democrats and depredation amongst republicans might account for the increase?
