November 2018 U.S. House Totals by Party

All states have finished their official vote tallies except for West Virginia.  The national totals for U.S. House by party (using the unofficial West Virginia returns, which will probably be almost exactly like the official ones) are:

Democratic  60,447,537; Republican 50,751,049; Libertarian 768,015; Green 224,919; Working Families 217,172; Conservative 207,094; Independent Parties (of Connecticut, Louisiana and Oregon) 74,672; Reform 66,579; Constitution 59,972; Independence Parties (of Minnesota and New York) 57,463; Working Class 53,102; Women’s Equality 41,317; United Utah 36,177; Legal Marijuana Now 15,791; American 15,011; Progressive 10,758; Independent American of Utah 6,686; Liberty Union 3,924; and Socialist Equality 2,213.

The Republican share of the vote, 44.67%, is its lowest share for US House since 2008, when it was 42.94%.

For accuracy, all data was checked against data in the Cook Political Report.  The national totals don’t agree because the Cook Political Report, and also Ballotpedia, assign to the major parties the vote cast for minor parties that participated in fusion.  BAN disagrees with this approach because if the voter chooses to vote for a minor party, it seems that voter’s vote should be recorded for the party that the voter actually chose.

November 2018 U.S. House Totals by Party — 20 Comments

  1. Copying the data is a MAJOR effort — due to clunky State websites – esp. ALL horizontal totals.

    What percent of the rigged gerrymander districts had 1 D and 1 R ???

    What percent of the rigged gerrymander districts had 2 D or 2 R [top 2 primary regimes] ???

    Votes for the 218 lowest D as a percent of total turnout ???

    Thus — one more ANTI-Democracy minority rule rigged gerrymander election since 1788

    — a mere 230 years and counting.

    How far away are the outer ring Reps from the Speaker HACK/puppet ???

    ANY room left for more gerrymander Reps ???

    Can the USA survive ANY more *wave* gerrymander elections ??? — 2006-2018 and counting.

  2. The US Senate breakdown by party will be in the Jan. 1 2019 issue of Ballot Access News (paper), by state. So will the US House votes, by party and by state. It’s only $18 for 12 issues per year. Send a check to PO Box 470296, San Francisco Ca 94147, or use paypal, ban@richardwinger.com. Thanks for thinking about subscribing.

  3. The Clerk, USA H Reps will be having a USA election stats item in circa Mid-Feb 2019.

    Pdfs of clerk stats back to 1920.

    NO reapportion of USA Reps in 1921-1922 after 1920 Census — Const subverted

    — led to at large elections for USA Reps in 1932 in many States

    — lead to RED Donkey robots in 1933-1934 Congress in 1929-1941 Great Depression I.

  4. 1/2 or less votes x 1/2 gerrymander areas = 1/4 or less control = MINORITY RULE OLIGARCHY.

    USA REPS – ABOUT 28-30 PCT CONTROL — GOING DOWN A BIT DUE TO TOP 2 PRIMARY AREAS.

    USA SENS – ABOUT 10 (REPEAT 10) PCT CONTROL DUE TO MANY BELOW AVERAGE SMALL STATES —

    IE ALL STATES WITH UNDER 435/50 = 8.7 USA REPS.

    SEE 2016 PREZ MATH – PREZ TOTALS BY STATE — HIGH TO LOW.

  5. It seems to correspond to increased voter turnout nationwide overall, especially but not only among supporters of the Democrats. Per Mark Rosenthal’s link above, Republican votes for US House nationwide increased from 41 to 51 million from 4 years ago and Democrats increased from 36 to 61 million. California being tilted Democrat it’s not surprising to see a big increase there. The only thing Top One Two-faced Party did for CA is cause a lot of people to leave the US Senate race blank.

  6. Again —

    Votes Percent United States Senator- CA

    6,019,422 47.35 Dianne Feinstein*, DEM
    5,093,942 40.07 Kevin De Leon, DEM
    1,599,178 12.58 NONVOTES
    12,712,542 100.00 TOTAL VOTES

    One more minority rule USA Senator HACK.

    Polisci profs will be working superhard on if ANY Elephant voted for RED communist Donkey Feinstein

    — or even for both Donkeys.

  7. CA Governor – Nov 2018
    VOTES PCT

    7,721,410 60.74 Gavin Newsom, DEM
    4,742,825 37.31 John H. Cox, REP
    248,307 1.95 NONVOTES
    12,712,542 100.00 TOTAL VOTES

    Compare NONVOTES Pcts.

  8. Gee- what pct of the CA Elephants voted for a Donkey candidate for USA Senator

    — the perceived lesser of 2 EVILS ???

  9. Also –

    UNEQUAL votes for each Rep gerrymander district winner.

    UNEQUAL total votes in each gerrymander district.

    Much below average stats in gerrymander districts having lots of illegal invaders who got counted in the 2010 Census.

    Brain dead *mainstream* media is too math stupid to note the above

    — along with SCOTUS super-math morons.

    Thus the 3 Jan 2019 coming CRISIS in USA H Reps.

    — to be like a meeting of the 1917 Russia Communist Party Central Committee with Lenin in CONTROL.

  10. Top2 is an electoral nightmare unless it limits a party’s nominees to one and provided that voters can vote for 2 candidates.
