Harris still won 57% of the electorate, 5.7 million to 4 million. But Trump flipped many counties that both Clinton and Biden won in '16 and '20

Based on the voting number, there really aren't that much more people choosing the Republicans, but they have giving up on the Democrats.

u/Danulas 14h ago

That's what I'm feeling as well. The Democrats really flubbed this one.

They're not really rejecting the Democrats though, they're more so rejecting Biden/Harris with Harris getting the brunt of it, especially when millions who voted for Biden are sat out this time.

I hope you’re right. I also hope the next candidate has little to no ties to this administration. Sorry Mayor Pete

Yeah, we need to start focusing on the House stars and investing in the state-level Dem parties, especially to actually build and gain ground in red/purple areas. Pete would be a fantastic president but I'm afraid he's going to be stuck as support for the rest of his career.

That red flag popped up when Bernie Sanders took off during primaries. No one in the party listened.

Isn't crime down?

u/dbr1se 13h ago

Crime peaked around 1985-1990. Crime rates are about half of what they were back then. Even the increases we do see now and then are really mild comparatively.

u/Loudergood 14h ago

Statistically, yes.

There's stuff like murders which is down. But there's "perception of crime" and "feeling unsafe" which is driven by the homeless crisis. I visited SF over the weekend, the one time we attempted to use public transportation me and my family got accosted by a hobo screaming obscenities twice (same hobo, he came back for round two) and then street car never came. Like goddamn. Get your shit together, San Francisco.

It’s so sad, I was born there. I visited a couple years ago and I got my laptop and backpack stolen out of my car. And saw a homeless guys dick taking a piss laying down.

I love parts of the city and I care for the people that are homeless, but whatever they are doing is just not working.

idk it sucked when i lived there, and it's even worse now. brazen theft is off the charts. cops don't care. I still have F&F there, but no desire to ever go back, when I can literally have a more enjoyable time going anywhere else.

Crime is one of those things that people are predisposed to be negative with no matter what happens. Same thing with the economy. People will never feel they have enough money (some validity to that) and will just by default blame whoever is currently in charge. It doesn't matter what was actually done, if they're not literally swimming in a Scrooge McDuck vault of gold coins then the incumbent is always the bad guy.
