Democrats Flip Zero Seats in Four Blue State Special Elections

Democrats have failed since Election Day in November to take any Republican-controlled seats in four special elections in blue states, despite hefty investment from the Democratic Party.

Since President Trump's election, there have been several state-level special elections across the country. The Republican State Leadership Committee, or RSLC, published a memo this week showing Republicans have won every district they previously held across multiple states that Democrats have won in the last three or more presidential elections.

Republicans kept their seats despite "hefty financial investments and high profile Democrats lending star power to state-level candidates," RSLC noted.

There were four elections that Democrats hoped to win to show their resistance to Trump could be translated into electoral victories. The elections were in Virginia, Minnesota, and, most recently, Connecticut–all states Hillary Clinton won in the 2016 presidential election.

The American populous has finally awoken. The wool has been pulled over our eyes for too long and we are sick and tired of it.
We realize that the democratic programs are too costly, don't work and only push control from the states to DC. We want our country back and are taking it out on the group that has driven this ship aground.
More government is NOT the answer to our problems. Obama-care was recent proof of that.
I hope we continue to see Waters, Pelosi and Schumer on TV. It just drives the point home to anyone who's IQ is higher than my thermostat that the democratic party is only about controlling citizens- not about helping them.
