Tldr: Trump team apparently uses Gmail, but WaPo admits to being unable to be unable to provide evidence when asked (though they claim they have it). Trump team denies this.

I might be confusing my providers but I believe Google offers a FEDRAMP-compliant email service.

Even should Wisconsin gerrymander for 2026, their Question 1 on Voter ID looks like it'll go through. That's a not-insignificant victory. Not to mention Florida's special elections held firm.

It's a pity that Crawford looks like the winner, but this is not decisive for the dems like they hoped. They've not roadblocked Trump here and now, but 2026 will be the judge of that.

Agreed, Presler identified an issue in WI by the end of January. The RNC basically stopped returning his calls in November, and spent the last 4 months spiking the ball and cashing in their loyalty coupons, instead of strapping in for the next fight.

That make sense because the current head of the RNC is a Bush-ite. This was his take away. I bet few in this thread knew Lara resigned and this chucklefuck is chair now.

The voter ID thing will be immediately overturned thanks to Crawford.

Everyone is blackpilling hard over this. The fact that this thread isn't is telling of how much people actually pay attention to US politics here.

The right is fucked. Dems are going to sweep 2026.

The thing about being the "silent majority" party is that the "silent" part still applies. The current GOP is suffering from the same ills that plagued the Obama-era Democrats, and this low-propensity status is why the only two Republicans (or R-affiliates) to win statewide are Donald Trump and Ron Johnson since 2016*.
*Except Brian Hagedorn in 2019... by 6 thousand votes.
Does this result mean that a blue wave a la 2018 is imminent? No, if only because the group of competitive House districts has shrunken to a point where the +40 gain of 2018 just physically isn't possible, but I would expect the emboldened liberal majority to redraw the House districts to flip 2 red seats blue (6-2 R >> 4-4).
However, this liberal hold guarantees control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court through 2028, and the conservative wing can very easily be decimated should the conservative seats up in 2026 and 2027 (in the same part of the year!) be flipped liberal. This could lead to a 6-1 liberal Wisconsin S.C. in 2027, mirroring the 6-1 conservative Court achieved in the peak of the Scott Walker era.

This election would have secured a Republican victory in the House in 2026. Now they just lost it and we're all gonna get fucked hard in the coming years. Back to the longhouse we go.

You’re a blackpilled Cuck.
I remember you fucks said we’d lose 2016 and 2024.

The Democrats were hoping to shrink the House Repub majority by gerrymandering Wisconsin. If Florida also lost their special elections, Trump would be stonewalled upon losing the House.

Did we lose the Florida elections?
