He’s run unopposed in the past and won the district with ~70% of the popular vote last year. David Price is from a super blue district he has dominated forever. Unless I’m mistaken, don’t see either going red. Starkiller, and luvyablue256 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starkiller Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 (edited) Price is 81. Doyle isn’t quite that old but he's almost 70. I don’t think that either of them are giving up cushy House seats just because they might end up in the minority. They have spent many years in the minority. But it doesn’t really matter as long as the districts are solidly blue and don’t seem remotely likely to flip.

Unless I’m mistaken, don’t see either going red. Very few if any retirements are gonna be in swingy districts. Also... say what you want about Palmer Report... but this should be a factor in the 2022 discussions. Shitty GOP candidates Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschool Posted November 4, 2021 Report Share Posted November 4, 2021 Democrats have slept on this issue for years and will now pay the price over a 2nd 10 year cycle. I wonder if the Dems will even have a shot to hold the House over the next 10 years? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Democrats are too busy infighting while trying to pass legislation that might help someone other than the super wealthy to play dirty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, some Democrats just refuse to be rational about eliminating the filibuster to get shit done OILERMAN 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
