Marie Newman under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for possibly bribing a primary opponent to stay out: https://www.businessinsider.com/marie-newman-bribe-primary-opponent-office-congressional-ethics-2022-1

An Illinois Democrat being corrupt? I've never heard of such a thing! 

This is Chicagoland. It's one of the qualifications to be a major politician here.

It's literally only the Democrats. Never heard a hint of corruption from Bob Dold, Mark Kirk or John Porter.

Never a hint of wrongdoing from Rauner, Hastert, or George Ryan either! Truly imitable figures.

TBF, Rauner wasn't corrupt. He was just incompetent.

Buying his daughter’s way into a public magnet school is just good parenting, then? Mafia-like tactics to intimidate reporters?

I feel vindicated in that PA-07 move.

TX-34 is interesting though, I still feel like there's just no way Flores has that big of a chance.

I assume the changes to TX-34 (and TX-15) are related to rumors I’ve heard about CLF internal polls showing Republicans doing well in the Valley. The numbers aren’t public but Wasserman et al have been privy to such unreleased internals in the past.

The Economist house model in 2020 wasn’t run or created by Morris, only the presidential model was.

Part of it is nervous incumbents making noise (what I suspect is happening with Brownley and Morelle) and part of it is the “use it or lose it” incentive to spend the remaining money everywhere that could possibly be competitive, better safe than sorry.
