Fox Information host Laura Ingraham shared breakdowns by the numbers over the past a number of election cycles and identified new positive factors for Republicans on Friday’s “The Ingraham Angle.”
LAURA INGRAHAM: The Angle has been poring over the election breakdowns and we see that this would be the sixth time within the final eight off 12 months elections that Republicans took the Home. Wow. Will probably be the second closest margin of victory for the successful social gathering since not less than 1970 and doubtless because the Nineteen Fifties. The one nearer Home race by way of the favored vote was 1998. Now, have a look at what the Democrats did by way of turnout in 2018. In 2014, the Democrats obtained 35.4 million votes for the Home, however in 2018, they obtained 60.3 million votes. Now, the GOP really elevated their votes from 2014 to 2018 by over 10 million votes. However in 2014, they beat the Democrats by 4.5 million, and in 2018, they misplaced to the Democrats by nearly 10 million. However the Democrats haven’t been in a position to keep that fervor.

REPUBLICANS SECURE MAJORITY IN HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
…
As of now, the GOP has 53.3 million votes. That is up from 50.5 million in 2018. The Democrats have 49.5 million, down from 60.3 million in 2018. You see the place I am going right here? Nicely, in fact, we noticed an analogous sample within the 2020 presidential vote. In 2016, Hillary obtained 65.9 million votes and Trump obtained nearly 63 million votes. In 2020, Trump raised his vote to 74.2 million, however the Democrats raised their vote to 81.3 million. So it is an open query proper now whether or not they can keep that very same stage of pleasure. Now, our plan, the plan we have been speaking about is working. However because the angle has been saying since 2020, we simply must do higher by way of poll harvesting and early voting to match the Democrat efforts. And certainly not ought to we underestimate the Democrats skill to prove extra votes than they’ve in current historical past.
