Second Amendment Crushes Gun Control Candidates on Election Day

By Eric Reed on November 5, 2014 in BuzzPo, Civil Rights, Elections, Gun control, Politics

There’s no better feeling than waking up in the morning knowing that the GOP is in control of the Senate, still controls the House, and Obama’s agenda in the next 2 years might as well be his golf game. But we must not overlook the fatal blow that American voters delivered to pro gun control candidates.
According to Breitbart News, “On the gubernatorial level, in Arizona, pro-Second Amendment candidate Doug Ducey (R) beat gun control candidate Fred DuVaul (D). And in Florida, pro-Second Amendment incumbent Rick Scott (R) beat gun control candidate Charlie Crist. These victories were enhanced by the fact that Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly endorsed DuVal and Giffords’ gun control PAC gave $100,000 to Crist’s campaign.”

“In Texas, NRA-endorsed gubernatorial candidate Greg Abbott (R) won. In Maryland, NRA-endorsed gubernatorial candidate Larry Hogan (R) won. In Alabama, NRA-endorsed Governor Robert J. Bentley (R) won. In Wisconsin, NRA-endorsed Governor Scott Walker (R) won. In Michigan, NRA-endorsed Governor Rick Snyder (R) won. In Nevada, NRA-endorsed Governor Brian Sandoval (R) won. In Ohio, NRA-endorsed Governor John R. Kasich (R) won. In Oklahoma, NRA-endorsed Governor Mary Fallin (R) won. In Wyoming, NRA-endorsed Governor Matt Mead (R) won. In Idaho, NRA-endorsed Governor Bruce Otter (R) won. In Kansas, NRA-endorsed Governor Sam Brownback (R) won. And in Maine, NRA-endorsed Governor Paul R. LePage (R) won against gun control candidate Michael Michaud (D).”
“In Senate races, gun control Senator Mark Udall (D-CO) was defeated by NRA-endorsed Cory Gardner (R) and gun control Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC) was defeated by NRA-endorsed Thom Tillis (R). In Kansas, NRA-endorsed Senator Pat Roberts (R) won. In Georgia, NRA-endorsed Senatorial candidate David Perdue (R) won. In Arkansas, NRA-endorsed Tom Cotton (R) won. And in West Virginia, NRA-endorsed Shelley Moore Capito (R) won, marking the first time that state has sent a Republican Senator to Washington DC in over five decades. NRA-endorsed Senatorial candidate Joni Ernst (R-IA) also won.”
Also last night, Alabama adopted Amendment 3. According to AL.com, “The amendment was introduced to the state legislature by Rep. Mike Jones (R-Andalusia), and it specifies that the right to bear arms is a fundamental right for citizens of the state of Alabama. It will require ‘strict scrutiny,’ the highest level of judicial review, for any restriction of that right.”
Unfortunately I-594, an unconstitutional bill that will negatively impact Washington States law-abiding gun owners passed yesterday. It seems as if Washington wants to follow in California’s footsteps, and gun owners should be very concerned about the direction Washington is heading.
But despite that, yesterday was a tremendous victory for conservative American gun owners. Many of you were hoping that America would speak, and speak we did. Our voices yesterday told Barack Obama, Michael Bloomberg, Gabby Giffords, and Shannon Watts with her “Mad Moms” to go pound sand.
And with all of the above terrific news, only one day after being elected Governor of Texas Greg Abbott has just said in a press conference that he’ll sign the open carry bill if it reaches his desk in the upcoming Texas legislative session.
It’s a great day to be an American. Here’s to hoping that the massive damage caused by the Obama administration can start getting repaired very soon.
