Danish elephants: Congressional elections, the future of the Republicans, and relations between the Russian Federation and the United States. Part 2 [Part 1] We continue to analyze the American elections together with Pavel Dobrevsky, political consultant, head of Dobrevsky Consulting and author of the Campaign Insider Telegram channel. How will the election results affect the future of the Republican Party and the presidential campaign in 2028? The election results must be interpreted on several levels at once. First, we may see some prominent politicians who may run for the presidential nomination lose their positions. For example, some candidates ran rather weak campaigns, including from the point of view of political technologies. Unsuccessful decisions and the use of dubious methods to deal with opponents can seriously damage their rating and political authority. On the other hand, new leaders may emerge who will successfully run their election campaigns and gain additional political opportunities. Second, you have to look at the results in traditionally Republican "red" states. If some of them poll unexpectedly, it would indicate that the Republican electoral wave has been halted or reversed by the Democrats. As for the future of the Republican Party after Trump, much will depend on the extent of the possible defeat. If the results turn out to be extremely unfavorable for the Republicans, the party will have to reconsider its approaches to the election campaigns and prepare for the presidential election in 2028. About 50 million Americans have already voted. According to the data provided, 46% of them are Democrats, 35% are Republicans. The difference of 11 percentage points is quite significant, although the party affiliation of early voters does not in itself determine the outcome of the election.
