jim. i do think basically as mae pointed out that this election was a turning point from what happened after november 2021 when there was this burst of activity on the right around monkeying around in elections, trying to get partisans into office to control the election machinery. it really was rejected almost everywhere and so you know, in some of the biggest election deniers aren t do what kari lake is doing in arizona, not conceding. most of them have conceded and moved on. you know, it s not like trump, lake doesn t have some, you know she doesn t control the republican party in the way that trump does. i don t think it matters all
communicate their message unencumbered on a single cable television and low-trafficked websites. that s it. the rest of the american media amounts to a gigantic filter designed to distort republicans. it s a campaign apparatus, and only the democrats have it. you can whine about that. ooh, the media are liberal. it s not about liberal or conservative. it s about winning elections. democrats can win because they have that. so if republicans want to win elections too they might spend money to fix that, to achieve parity. as of tonight, democrats have far more control over the election machinery, and almost total control of the manner media, and republicans don t. these are not ideological problems. it s not a question of who s right on the issues. that s settled in our minds, but probably in the minds of people who vote republican if it would kurt to them, but it doesn t, because they don t know what they stand for.
that, ron? this will be the most long-term implication, we re talking about how many seats, whether republicans take control of the congress. i think what historians will remember it provided a beachhead inside the electoral system to a large number of candidates who are untethered to the traditions of american democracy as we have known it, and it is going to take us into an unpredictable new era. no one can say exactly what it s going to mean in arizona or wisconsin if full-scale election deniers are in control of the election machinery in the roughly half dozen states that get to decide everything for the country, senate control, get to decide presidential control, but the odds are high that this is going to lead to some kind of crisis sooner than later. kristen, how are republicans who want traditionally republican policies in place but are not fans of election denialism making sense of this even as they are hoping to win over a majority in the house and senate?
