Re: U.S Election 2020

Mick using the logic that the House results don't match the Presidential one is completely illogical. There's plenty of times throughout history where a President has been elected but the opposing party has won races down the ballot. Nixon, Ford, Reagan and Bush all had Democratic Houses.

Where people aren't completely polarised by conspiracy theories and nationalist propaganda there's a percentage of people who routinely split their vote in the United States viewing that as an important check and balance within the system. These numbers may not be massive, but they don't need to be. They just need to swing enough races in the middle.

Not getting the result you want ≠ a fix.
