Dems best possible candidate (out performed Trump by almost 30 points), but he won't win this federal race and this will almost certainly result in the flip of his state house seat.

He's probably only running as a way to get out of what will clearly be a challenging legislative seat to hold in a Biden midterm.

This feels like a Hail Mary though I’m curious why he overpreform’s so much.

My guess is it has something to do with Lumbee voters splitting their tickets because of parochial issues (Graham is Lumbee and has been representing the area since before Trump made big gains with those voters).

His Republican opponent Oxendine was also Lumbee and she's an elected school board chair. She's probably likely to replace him.

This is an ancestrally D area trending R fast, so his Democratic replacement probably gets curb stomped against a strong R like Oxendine.

NY-22 is way, way, way more Republican than CA-25 is Democratic. Tenney f#cked up by a comparatively much larger amount.

Tenney underperformed Trump by 11.5%, so a bit larger than Christy Smith’s underperformance, but the two are comparable. I think neither of them are as weak as people make them out to be, b/c Tenney was severely outspent by Brindisi and the DCCC/Emily’s List didn’t even run ads for Smith in the special election, allowing Garcia to define her early. It also goes unmentioned that CA-25 and NY-22 are fairly prone to ticket-splitting.

A very interesting profile for a candidate in this district, though she's probably betting on a very favorable redistricting.

Good for the party at all levels, & exactly what Obama should've done during his 2 terms:

What is he thinking trying to run against Ron Wright's widow? It obviously is not going to work out for him.

I remember when Anthony Gonzalez was supposed to be the frontrunner against Sherrod Brown in 2024. Not anymore; he's not surviving this primary unless there are like five people against him and they split the vote.

Notably Lance Harris declined to run against Julia Letlow, whereas here State Rep, former aide in the Bush White House and former candidate Jake Ellzey is not only not running against Susan Wright but also under the argument that he is 'not a politician'.

LOL. Golden voted in favor of an amendment which is giving the right to vote to inmates.

A very dumb move considering how his district is leaning.

Maine actually has a system like this where it is legal for incarcerated people to vote from prison, so his vote makes a lot of sense in that regard.

Also, not sure what your post has to do with recruitment.

I guess this is an issue which could be weaponized by the GOP against him during the next election cycle.

Article on the shadow battle for Pelosi's seat. I'm increasingly convinced that she'll retire in 2022.

I'm pretty convinced she will. She promised to step down as the leader of house dems. You can't lead the dems in the house for 16 years only to step down to become a back bencher. Not to mentions she's pretty old and probably doesn't hate the idea of retirement
