My closest counties, former bastions of unions and the working man, all went straight red...again.  The problem for them is that the populations have dropped so much the larger, blue areas override them on the state and national level.

I read something about so many conservative PA residents relocated to Florida to have "freedom" that Fl is now guaranteed red but PA is more purple than ever.

Well that goes back to the argument that a PA standard moderate republican would have won and kept the seat that has been red since 2011 red.  It seemed like Oz was going to pull it off with that late stage surge, but as hard as it is to believe the polls actually overestimated the GOP this time.

I'll be interested to see how the GOP losses here are handled.  I assume Trump and Mastriano will go the "rigged" way, but Oz seems like he's just going to take a private jet to his mansion in NJ and count his blessings he doesn't have to kiss Trump's arse for an entire senate term. Florida and Ohio going from THE swing states to being solid red now doesn't bode well for democrats on the presidential stage, though.
