DYSPEPSIA GENERATION

We have seen the future, and it sucks.

Fewer States Than Ever Will Have Split-Party Senate Delegations

13th November 2024

The Washington Poop.

Voters in Montana, Ohio, West Virginia and Pennsylvania — states that Donald Trump won on Nov. 5 — also voted for Republicans to take over Senate seats currently held by Democrats, helping Republicans secure control of the upper chamber.

After these flips, only Maine, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin will send a split-party delegation of one Democrat and one Republican to the Senate. That is the lowest number since Americans began directly electing senators more than a century ago.

The 17th Amendment was a mistake, a big step on the road toward twisting our Republic into a Democracy. Of course Democrats loved it.
