On November 2nd, several states across the nation held regular elections, and in some of them, there were sparks of hope that the evil of a Leviathan of a political criminal cabal has not taken over the nation completely. At least, there is still hope for a Free Republic to endure a bit longer.
On the evening of November 2nd, the National League Atlanta Braves won the World Series against the American Houston Astros. It was symbolic on a deeper, more cosmic level that the Atlanta ball players will bring the coveted World Series trophy to Atlanta, despite how the woke Major League Baseball elites moved the All-Star Game out of Atlanta to "protest" the election laws that the state of Georgia had passed earlier this year.
The MLB pulled the All-Star Game in such a blatant show of "corporate bullying"
In the midst of extreme hypocrisy and pseudo-compassion by several mega-corporations, conspiring against Georgia when the state strengthened its election laws. Biden weighed in on how terrible such laws were, and puppet master Obama was likely pulling strings and leading the effort "from behind. But, in a seemingly unusual effort at the time, the MLB removed the much acclaimed All-Star Game from the beleaguered state and had managed to create undo hardship for the good people of Georgia. At the core of this insidious "punishment," there existed an arrogance that only the despotic-minded, yet woke corporate elitists would be able to conjure up.
The MLB pulled the All-Star Game in such a blatant show of "corporate bullying," but their effort may have had more to do with their strings being pulled by the CCP. In that time, the MLB was in negotiations over a deal with China, and one could wonder whether their efforts had mote to do with completing their deal with China? The World Series coming to Georgia this year flips the corporate bullying on its ear. The elections the other day, follow the theme of "flipping" as a few brave candidates were able to flip the power base in their states. The more dramatic and pivotal race was the governor's race in Virginia as GOP businessman, Glenn Youngkin, defeated the current Democrat governor, Terry McAuliffe.
Tuesday was "Election Day" in several states, but the eyes of the politically savvy across the nation were upon the election in Virginia. It seemed to become a microcosm of what is currently happening all across the United States on a much larger scale. A great deal was riding on this election, which the Democrats invested in quite heavily. Democrats brought out their "heavies" to campaign for McAuliffe: President Joe Biden, former president Obama (or the hand in charge of the sock puppet president) and Kamala Harris. This followed the tactics of what the Democrat establishment did in the recall election of Gavin Newsom in California. Only, it is not totally clear whether the Virginia election had been properly "prepped" in favor of the Democrat incumbent as the election in California had in the summer.
True understanding of our nation's history cannot be derived from ignorance nor an ideological indoctrination
Yet, unlike in California, the Republican Party of Virginia appears more united and less inclined to allow the Democrats to do whatever they want in their state. Although Virginia had turned into a "Blue" state, ordinary citizens took matters into their own hands at the polls. The Virginia vote reflected a populist sentiment that is sweeping throughout the nation. Especially as more truth is spread about Critical Race Theory being taught in the schools, as well as the extremely evil loosening of moral standards on school grounds where boys can enter young girls' bathrooms because they "identify" as females, sensible and caring parents have had enough. In this governor's race, the election turned into a forum on parental rights and input into the education of their children, and the election was thrust onto the national stage since the DOJ directed the FBI to start investigating the parents who were demanding their rights to have input into their children's education. They began questioning and challenging the mandated curricula at their local school boards. Critical Race Theory had started to roll out in public schools all across the country as early as last year.
This election day brought into the spotlight two political agendas clashing in not-so-simple state elections: control and restriction of freedom versus many genuine freedoms that many American citizens have taken for granted for far too long. Progressive-revisionist historians and Marxist - oriented intellectuals attempt to re-write the history of these United States, and to poison the younger generations with their false narratives and mantras of systemic racism. McAuliffe was attempting to use the tried and useful race card in the Virginia gubernatorial race, as an indirect way of protecting the CRT values, while simultaneously attacking his opponent. It demonstrates that the Marxist or Socialist adherents are out of touch with normal America and such Wokism and Social Justice Warrior-Saviors are wearing out their visitation rights.
It is significant that this sweeping victory for the GOP occurred in Virginia as the state is the target of the CRT false narrative claiming that the history of the United States really began in 1619 with the first sale of slaves in the British settlement at Jamestown. Not only is the famous "1619 Project" fake history, one more lie of the Left that is not hard to expose, but it is quite a ridiculous attempt to view true history from the lenses of a twenty-first century vantage point. Looking at historical events in such a biased perspective has about as much sense as holding George Washington in contempt because he did not drive a Ford truck. True understanding of our nation's history cannot be derived from ignorance nor an ideological indoctrination. For this, Virginia parents who care that their children are properly educated, should be concerned.
On the other hand, New Jersey voters decided that they were still satisfied with incumbent Democrat Governor Phil Murphy, as he defeated his GOP challenger, Jack Ciattarelli in a very close race. In fact, the Gateway Pundit reported Wednesday that Murphy won by 20,000 votes, but "40,000 ballots were awarded to Murphy in Bergen County after the county was reported as 100% reported." Why would citizens suspect anything fraudulent in a state free of corruption? A Project Veritas video revealed that Murphy was going to wait until after the election to let the citizens know he would implement a statewide vaccine mandate, but it is likely the New Jersey voters are still in a state of slumber (or denial), or were sleeping when the tabulation "correction" occurred in the middle of the night.

Edward Durr's incredible David vs Goliath story
There is an incredible David vs Goliath story, however, that emerged from New Jersey, and it should give many beleaguered citizens in such "mandate states" a ray of hope. Conservative truck driver, Edward Durr, nearly defeated New Jersey State Senate President Steve Sweeney (D-West Deptford). The political race was for the state's third Senate district, and Tuesday night it appeared that Durr had won, but votes were still being counted Wednesday morning and Durr came up short in an extremely close finish. Conservative Durr only spent $153 on running his campaign, had no website, but a lot of guts to take on someone who is likely the second most powerful politician in the entire state. If he had been victorious, it would have been one of the most amazing political upsets in recent history.
Yet, in such a time as this, when politicians spend millions on manipulating the minds of the common voters, Durr's quest is noteworthy and can provide inspiration and lessons for citizens who are called to action. Citizens need to engage and challenge the growing tyrannical control and restriction of freedom, if freedom is to last in America. At least, there is cause for elation over these elections.
Dennis Jamison reinvented his life after working for a multi-billion dollar division of Johnson & Johnson for several years. Currently retired from West Valley College in California, where he taught for nearly 10 years, he now writes articles on history and American freedom for various online publications.

During the 2016 presidential primaries, he was the leader of a network of writers, bloggers, and editors who promoted the candidacy of Dr. Ben Carson. Jamison founded “We the People” - Patriots, Pilgrims, Prophets Writers’ Network and the Citizen Sentinels Network. Both are volunteer groups for grassroots citizen-journalists and activists intent on promoting and preserving the inviolable God-given freedoms rooted in the founding documents.
Jamison also co-founded RedAmericaConsulting to identify, counsel, and support citizen-candidates, who may not have much campaign money, but whose beliefs and deeds reflect the role of public servants rather than power-hungry politicians.
