So much for Michael Bloomberg. His candidates were soundly thumped yesterday as gun owners voted freedom first.
In other races, like Illinois’ governor’s race, rabidly anti-gun Pat Quinn was rejected by quiet on guns Bruce Rauner.
The only race that is still undecided as of this morning is the race to replace Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper, Bloomberg’s stooge who signed Colorado’s evil anti-gun bill after Newtown, costing that state thousands of jobs and millions in tax revenues. As of this morning, Hickenlooper held a very narrow lead, but only 92% of districts were reporting.
Ditto for Gabby Giffords and all the rest of the amateur-hour gun control groups out there vying for relevance.
In so doing, the Second Amendment annihilated the left’s relentless claim that 90 percent of Americans support more gun control.
On the gubernatorial level, in Arizona, pro-Second Amendment candidate Doug Ducey (R) beat gun control candidate Fred DuVaul (D). And in Florida, pro-Second Amendment incumbent Rick Scott (R) beat gun control candidate Charlie Crist. These victories were enhanced by the fact that Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly endorsed DuVal and Giffords’ gun control PAC gave $100,000 to Crist’s campaign.
The Second Amendment trumped their endorsement and their money.
In Texas, NRA-endorsed gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott (R) won. In Maryland, NRA-endorsed gubernatorial candidate Larry Hogan (R) won. In Alabama, NRA-endorsed Governor Robert J. Bentley (R) won. In Wisconsin, NRA-endorsed Governor Scott Walker (R) won. In Michigan, NRA-endorsed Governor Rick Snyder (R) won. In Nevada, NRA-endorsed Governor Brian Sandval (R) won. In Ohio, NRA-endorsed Governor John R. Kasich (R) won. In Oklahoma, NRA-endorsed Governor Mary Fallin (R) won. In Wyoming, NRA-endorsed Governor Matt Mead (R) won. In Idaho, NRA-endorsed Governor Bruce Otter (R) won. In Kansas, NRA-endorsed Governor Sam Brownback (R) won. And in Maine, NRA-endorsed Governor Paul R. LePage (R) won against gun control candidate Michael Michaud (D). (On August 8, Breitbart News reported that Michaud was supported by Gabby Giffords.)
In Senate races, gun control Senator Mark Udall (D-CO) was defeated by NRA-endorsed Cory Gardner (R) and gun control Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC) was defeated by NRA-endorsed Thom Tillis (R). In Kansas, NRA-endorsed Senator Pat Roberts (R) won. In Georgia, NRA-endorsed Senatorial candidate Bill Perdue (R) won. In Arkansas, NRA-endorsed Tom Cotton (R) won. And in West Virginia, NRA-endorsed Shelly Moore Capito (R) won, marking the first time that state has sent a Republican Senator to Washington DC in over five decades.
The spotlight was also on the race between NRA-endorsed Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and pro-gun control challenger Alison Grimes (D). McConnell won handily.
NRA-endorsed Senatorial candidate Joni Ernst (R-IA) also won.
Would’ve been even better if we could have dumped DICK! At least he and his boy hussein will be be limp and less of a PITA…..
Without these Senate wins the Marxist would have been able to easily trot in more freedom and Constitution hating commie liberal Supreme Court Justices, the loss of liberty would last for decades.
My family and I thank all you 2nd Amendment supporters for voting to protect our constitutional rights and defend our soldier-sacrificed American republic. The king will be retaliating, but hang on tight and do not let down your guard. Continue the conversation with everyone you meet. Reteach our children and grandchildren the good of this country and the original values passed down to us by our fathers and farmers that fought against this similar tyranny. Be proud of your red-blooded Christian heritage. VOICE YOUR OPINIONS AND CONTINUE THIS FIGHT!
shame little Dick Durbin didnt loose
Yesterday was a watershed moment for us.
Anti-gunners nationwide were rejected, with narrow few exceptions (regrettably, little Dick being one of them). Let’s celebrate our win and advance our freedom.
Kudos to groups like GSL for their contribution to this moment in American history. This might be even bigger than 1994.
Sam
yea I was sad when I took my ” dump Durbin “. Sighn ( s ) off today. I was hoping ole humpty. Dumpty would fall but no , I Gotta see that egg- head. On t v for the next 4 years tell everybody how great he is what a nothin. He is —- he is hot air at its finest And mouth his mouth never stops he can’t talk fast enough. The shit just keeps comin out. And on and on He’s Probably a billionaire. From stealing from us. He was out thanking people today but you know where He never left Chicago Why don’t you come down here and Thank people you worthless jack____!!!
No doubt about it…
The anti-gunners lost a stunning number of races all up and down the ballot and all over the US…
Too bad the lib’s won’t listen…
I’m happy the GOP took the Senate and got more seats in the House. I was really disappointed Dickhead Durbin is still here. That probably was fixed. But it still feels great to see the libtards crying.
We need to remind Mark Kirk, as to what happens to anti-gun Senators.
Yea your right. As soon as this all cools down. Ole. Kirk will be over in Durbins den sniffing around again just like before !!!
