Question

Why did most house and senate races favor democrats?

Answer 1

People wanted a change so they voted down Republican rule. It was meant as a stand to help the government understand that we want to be heard and heeded. I could be like some and give you the list of reasons they were so unpopular but I reckon someone else will fill that slot.

Answer 2

Because the majority of American voters decided that the Republican's do not represent them the way that they believe they should. There is a mistrust of the Republican good ole boys club that has been in power for years, and it is time to have balance of power back in Washington.

Answer 3

The voting public was fed up with the administration's handling of the war, Katrina, our economy, etc.. . I should also add that the scandals also played a part. More Republicans are embroiled in the Abramoff scandal in addition to the sex scandals that surfaced with Foley and Sherwood.

Answer 4

The Dems were better at getting out the vote.

Answer 5

because we're just sick and tired of the neocons in iraq. why are they looking out for some damn arabs and sacrificing good american citizens for them? makes no sense at all! so we yell out our disatisfaction with our damn vote!!!

Answer 6

No one likes Bush.

Answer 7

Cause the people voted for it.

Answer 8

it was a combination of reasons. Mostly was the media campaign, the democrats lies, and stupidity of people.

Answer 9

Because the average American voter is illiterate.

Answer 10

The majority of independants were tired of the war in Iraq. It is a force to be reckoned with in any election.
