Again, we can have a highly theoretical debate on what it means to run as a high-profile woman in a corrupt and unfair world, and the tradeoffs that requires. It's Twitter, after all! Or we could look at the actual ads that campaign run and the money spent vs. money raised

Yes, of course. Elections have widely-recognized standards, not my made-up rules. I agree they would win *some* even under those standards, but Senate is structurally minority;most of the rest of the country is gerrymandered and voters disenfranchised; plus electoral college.

For example, we had a Voting Rights Act and it was enforced, obviously partisan gerrymandering struck down and they won the popular vote as well as the electoral college? Choice of hard salami is on its way. (Senate is what it is. Rest is their deliberate choice.)

Actual majority/plurality of the popular vote?

I think this is a fair measure of who should get a salami. Will be skewed a bit by nature of races, probably in right direction to keep interesting

Speaking only for myself here, I’ll call R victories legitimate when they can win majorities of non-suppressed, non-gerrymandered electorates.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
