The purpose of this thread is to provide Sup Forums a convenient guide to the 2018 midterms, and a platform to take action to achieve specific objectives that will prevent any semblance of a “Blue Wave.”
IMPORTANT DATES
November 6, 2018 --> THE BIG ONE. This is when you’ll cast your votes to elect your choices to the House of Representatives and the Senate
March 18, 2018 --> Pennsylvania special election for the 18th Congressional District; likely Republican but the Democrats have a strong candidate and you can bet your ass that they’ll be gunning for this seat
>Defeatist Black Pillers not welcome. Your mentality is for losers. We didn't need you in 2016, and we don't need you now.
>Shills not welcome. Your attempts are utterly transparent. You were wrong in 2016. You were defeated in all 5 House Races in 2017. Your only real victory was in Alabama, and that was when our guy was smeared as a pedo, got massively outspent, and got betrayed by prominent figures in the GOP. You won't be able to do that in every single race this year. We know the stakes are too high for that. On the other hand, legitimate dissenters of all types are welcome.
>REMINDER that most political power in the USA isn't in the Presidency, it's in the Congress. In many ways, this can be even more impactful than Trump becoming President
>REMINDER that a Democrat congress can fuck up everything we've achieved in 2016, and they definitely will try their best to. You can bet that they will seriously try impeachment.
>REMINDER that Trump's victory is a once in a lifetime opportunity. If we fuck up now, we may NEVER get another man like him in government in our lifetime
>REMINDER that even if you’re disappointed with how Trump is compromising too much with the Democrats by not doing things like immediately repealing DACA and not getting the wall through…November 6, 2018 is your chance to elect a much redder congress so that he doesn’t have to compromise with the Democrats so much and has a much greater chance of passing every item on his agenda through
>REMINDER that even if you hate Republicucks like Bitch McConnell, instead of whining in impotent rage, you should use your energy on electing solid MAGA candidates in the primaries and casting a vote against the Democrat even if a Republicuck wins the primary

Reminder that if you don't get out and vote in all federal, state, and local elections then none of this matters. If you don't vote then anti-white communists will win elections and be the ones in power. If Dems win state legislatures they will pass sanctuary laws. Most importantly, if we don't keep Congress in the hands of the GOP, Trump's agenda will be stopped dead in its tracks.
The next big election is in Pennsylvania's 18th congressional district on March 13th, vote for Rick Saccone. This should be our number one focus and priority. A loss of this seat would be disastrous. Do you know what district you live in? Are you registered to vote? Let's get to work!

Got plenty distracted by THE MEMO and that game of thrones being played out right now.
Connor Gonzalez
It's interesting. Probably the best known name, Josh Mandel, has decided (or been told) not to run. The egotistical John Kasich is above running, so you're looking at I think five or six people in the Primary, none of whom have the name recognition as the free-spending career pol and communist faggot Sherrod Brown. Our daily newspaper, the Columbus Dispatch, has been owned by Gatehouse Media (more like Bath House Media) for a couple of years now, and they are a company of shilling faggots and will be shilling hard for Brown. I consider them to be especially dangerous in general because most of their media holdings are in smaller towns with perhaps more limited sources for (((news))) and a captive, older audience that may not be inclined to seek out additional sources of information. Anyway, that's one of main goals for February: figure out who to support in the Primary while ranking the others in terms of "our" needs. t. Columbus fag

One more thing, concerning your pic related: It should be noted that Strickland was a very unpopular Governor. He is or was publicly friendly with the NRA/pro-gun causes, and when combined with the Dems' cozy relationship with unions he was able to get more votes from rural and suburban retards. He also won the election after the Taft era. Taft was pretty unpopular himself. I guess my point is that I still consider Ohio to be very much a purple state. Columbus is pure cancer, but the younger libs here may well have screamed themselves to sleep after a year and a half of GLUMPF. That could make the difference but it's obviously very early.
Ethan Cox
I hope Trump campaigns with whoever wins the GOP primary, that should help with the name recognition problem

I knew Strickland was pretty fucking unpopular. If he wasn’t we wouldn’t elect Kasich. The good thing this year is that Kasich can’t run.
Zachary Bennett
Actually, Mandel held a seat in the Ohio House before he took a pretty sound thrashing from Brown. He's currently the State Treasurer. I know little about Renacci, embarrassingly enough. I can tell you that his home county of Medina is, to my knowledge, one of the more conservative of NE Ohio. I know nothing of Gibbons or the others looking to take the Primary.
Liam Thomas

I'm thinking small / city based change and then maybe state rep level?
Yes I participate in some and practice debate my coworkers who "change my mind sometimes" but I really want to get involved as a public face, I have a very clean image, come from a great family, and have the financial backing due to /biz/ and some other side projects + my job at a non profit.

President Trump is incredibly popular with what I call the Outerbelt Crowd here in Central Ohio, the people who have developed the areas outside of I-270. These people have some big cash and I'm sure he can encourage them to help out. But fuck yes, he would be very helpful with name recognition.
Tyler Thomas
Funny thing is, In the 80s Brown was the Ohio Secratary Of State Under Governor Dick Celeste. Like a lot of Democrat politicians in this state (Strickland, Cordray, Kusicnich) they don’t go away when their term is over.

Jordan Williams
In the last midterm in my state, only 14% of the population of voting age showed up to vote. Getting your parents, family, friends, and neighbors out to vote is VITAL since with such low turnout numbers, any side can easily flood the polls in the direction they choose. If you know anyone personally who voted for Trump in 2016, make sure they go and vote in 2018 for the best RED candidate your state has to offer.

We have an unbearable amount of champagne socialists in Cleveland, Columbus, and Athens, along with a healthy number of nigger marxists in Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati, and to a lesser extent, Toledo. Toledo is interesting in the sense that their union people have been quicker to catch on to the fact that Dems are dumping them in favor of taco niggers and Baskin-Robbins genders. Youngstown is getting hip, too, but holy shit that town makes Toledo look booming.

Red Alert:
The Florida State Legislature has just approved Amendment IV - The Right for Felons to Vote Act to be on the November ballot after the nigger rights supporting the measure claimed it got around 800k signatures on its petition. The GOP-controlled State legislature is thinking of passing a bill that will restore the nigger's rights only if jewdge grants his/her approval. If not, this amendment requires, I believe, a two-thirds majority (if not just sixty percent) to officially pass so it's a tough sell, but it's Florida - there's enough cucked-up people down here for it to pass.
So Governor Scott, DeSantis, and Putnam (if he beats DeSantis in the primary) now have it even more tougher thanks to this.
We're talking about 1.5 million felons who'd get their voting rights restored if this amendment passes (the vast majority of them niggers, of course.)
Tyler Martinez
I think it goes without saying that the vast majority of felons are non-White. RIP Florida.
Landon Clark
Thanks for the update. Hopefully it doesn't pass.

For OHIO anons:
Primary Election: >Candidacies must be filed by Feb. 7. — Write-ins by Feb. 26. >Voters must register by Apr. 9. >Election day is Tuesday, May 8.
For Governor, it seems professional speed eater and noted presidential/spoiler wash-up John Kasich understands that he's a universally reviled carpetbagger and hopefully will return to his home state of who the fuck cares where PA after vacating his office. The presumed gubernatorial nominees appear to be former Senator and current Atty. Gen. Mike DeWine (R) and former Atty. Gen. and five-time Jeopardy! champion Richard Cordray (D) who recently resigned from an Obama administration appointment. The only other noteworthy (R) name is the Lt. Gov. Mary Taylor. These two exact people will likely be pitted against each other for the same exact office again after the same thing went down in 2010 for the Attorney General's seat. I don't really believe in (((coincidences))). Keep in mind that Ohio is a battleground state, so there will not likely be many extreme choices either way anyhow. I could see this going to Cordray in large part because DeWine has a longer track record of not really doing anything noteworthy.
Bentley Rogers
(cont.)
For Senate, frankly, I don't think anyone would want to vote for raspy Mr. Brown (D) if they could get away with it, but again with the old people. I haven't checked his voting record, but he's not liable to make many campaign stops if he was part of the government shutdown vote. Most people in the state would be more likely to support shutting down his face. The main problem right now though is that the clear front-runner for this seat, Ohio Treasurer Josh Mandel, went to the bench citing his wife's health. The current candidates:
Rep. Jim Renacci — Likely the front-runner, dropped out of the gubernatorial race to run for Senate after Mandel left the field. Abstained from voting on HR 3364 (the Russian sanctions bill which famously passed 419-3…surely user remembers). Haven't dug further into him than this.
Master of Theology and Public Administration, Don Eckhart — A Wharton alumnus like the God Emperor; it's been tough trying to find out any other information about the guy besides that he really likes the bible.
Melissa Ackison — Pro-Trump tradcon. Otherwise, just some no-name small business owner.

I'm In WI. The democrat senator up for election this the first lesbian senator ever, Tammy Baldwin from Madison Wi. Two candidates are squaring off in the primary A state GOP woman named Vulkmir and a bit of an outsider named Kevin Nicholson. Nicholson is a former marine and former democrat, until he claims he was repulsed by the creation of modern identity politics. He's literally the red-pilled politican. Nicholson seems to have good groundwork in the state but is terrible at social media, mostly making boring posts about taxes and reminding people he was a marine. On a recent Brietbart interview he said he's 100% for the wall and every other aspect of Trump's original immigration plan. Plus WI has Paul Nehlen running for Paul Ryan's congressional seat too.
Wyatt Anderson
Nicholson sounds great. Be sure to bring him up in future threads. Hopefully he wins the primaries

Right, I was thinking of reaching out to him about appealing to younger generations on social media. Maybe we could focus on memeing for him, as he seems afraid of bringing the bantz himself.
