Moving on to the National political scene,  it' shaping up to be a bad 2021 Elections result for The Dems.

First up in Mineapolis, the Ballot Amendment to replace the existing Police Department (the MPD) was voted down by a 56% to 44% margin. Additionally, another Ballot Amendment to transfer powers away from the City Council and tow the Mayors Office (which opposed replacing the MPD) also passed. Finally, several members of the City Council have lost their seats due to the inclusion of Ranked Choice Voting. No word on whether the new Council Members will be better or worse than the old ones.

And in the two Governors races that were expected to be an indicator of what the Dems could expect in the 2022 Mid term elections, things are not going well. In the Virginia Election, the Republican has beaten the Democrat.

And in New Jersey, the race is still too close to call with 88% of the vote reported. The incumbent Democrat Gov. Murphy managed to blow a 20 pt lead over his Republican opponent and currently only holds a 0.3% lead. The current Vote Tally is (D) Murphy 49.8% and (R) Ciatterelli 49.5%. 

With 2.3 million votes cast, Murphy leads by only 1,200 votes.
