This should teach users a lesson the Approvals aren't coinciding with the GCB and state by state numbers, Biden was at 33 percent and Mark Kelly was leading 40/39, there is no red wave it's a 303 map with wave insurance 2/5 Senate seats we win WI and PA, and OJ, NC and MO are up for grabs

[OSR stands with Israel]

Republicans need to put anti bureaucracy ballot measures up as stripping powers from these agencies will probably be popular

It would not be popular lol.

Even after today, you still completely misunderstand what issues actually draw people to the Republican Party.

Being anti bureaucracy should unite every wing of the party :

Cultural conservatives who don’t like wokeness

Economic conservatives for obvious reasons

Libertarians who are anti big government

And Populists who dislike elites having so much power

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Epic fàil by Traggy polls had Lake beating ROBSON but the Approvals of Biden are at 41 but Ryan and Fetterman and BEASLEY are ahead even in Boston polls.

Democracy Corp 50)48 D on GCB on 41

[Senator Incitatus]

Now a non-zero chance that Gibbs just wins Kent County.

[Yoda]

Well, suddenly I feel a lot less stupid for daring to say that maybe the reason you see polls like (as just one example) Whitmer +15 but Biden -20 in Michigan suggested that the reason for Biden's bad approvals had as much to do with poor progressive enthusiasm as they did with conservative backlash.

This. As a Left-Wing person who'd probably vote 'disapprove' if polled on Biden, I've always thought that polls should differentiate from which side people 'disapprove' of a President or politician.

Are Progressives the silent majority? Huzzah.

Yeh this is the mistake republicans are making this cycle when they quote "fundamentals" as their rationale for not believing the polls in PA-SEN, OH-Sen, or wherever else. I'm not sure where I would come down on binary approve/disapprove question (with all the wins recently, probably approve but disapprove at other times for sure). A lot of democrats out there are in the exact same boat as us. Even if they disapprove, there's no way in hell they are going to vote for a republican, so these "fundamentals" are extremely misleading.

[Alben Barkley]

The Donald went down to Kansas, he was lookin' for a vote to steal
He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind
And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this old man sawin' on a fiddle and playin' it hot
And the Donald jumped up on a hickory stump
And said, "boy, let me tell you what"
"I guess you didn't know it but I'm a fiddle player too
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you
Now you play a pretty good fiddle, boy
But give the Donald his due
I'll bet a fiddle of gold against your vote
'Cause I think I'm better than you"

The man said, "my name's Brandon and it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best there's ever been"

Brandon, rosin up your bow and play your fiddle hard
'Cause Hell's broke loose in Kansas, and the Donald deals the cards
And if you win, you get this shiny fiddle made of gold
But if you lose, the Donald gets your vote

The Donald opened up his case and he said, "I'll start this show"
And fire flew from his fingertips as he rosined up his bow
And he pulled the bow across the strings
And it made a evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this

When the devil finished, Brandon said, "well, you're pretty good, ol' son
But sit down in that chair right there
And let me show you how it's done"
"Fire on the Mountain" run boys, run
The devil's in the House of the Rising Sun
Chicken in a bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny, does your dog bite? No, child, no

The Donald bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat
And he laid that golden fiddle on the ground at Brandon's feet
Brandon said, "Donald, just come on back if you ever wanna try again
I done told you once you son of a bitch, I'm the best that's ever been"

[Minnesota Mike]

Now a non-zero chance that Gibbs just wins Kent.

Down to 1%/ He is probably winning election day votes.

[Senator Incitatus]

Looks like Heidi St. John is playing spoiler to Joe Kent in a massive way; likewise for Sessler and Klippert to Culp.

If you're talking about highly-engaged Republicans, sure. But everyday people just don't care about that stuff.

Focus on what actually draws people to the GOP: crime, immigration, school choice, and "the economy".

I hope the race between Lake and Robson is a long, nasty, drawn-out mess.  Karrin Taylor-Robson's husband is a billionaire housing developer who is considerably older than her.  Not too long ago, some of Kari Lake's team were comparing her to Anna Nicole Smith.  Pretty darn hilarious.

[Minnesota Mike]

We can argue whether it was the right thing to do but the DCCC spending for Gibbs just may flip this race.

What an evil organization, no better than the GOP. Every DCCC affiliated person should be punished, and also should be sued in court for betraying democratic values & ideals. It's not just Trump who needs an inquiry case, it's all of us.

Congratulations, you've managed to win a landslide among Republican Twitter.

Dammit.

Assuming it holds, Lean D pickup especially with the abortion referendum.

I probably would vote Trump if i was American, not because I like Trump but just because if i vote Trump, it would trigger you and no-one wants to miss that?

I’m far from a Democrat and I don’t see anything wrong or morally objectionable about this.

[Minnesota Mike]

WA-08: Total Dem vote is around 51%. Good sign for Schrier as IIRC Dems lost the total primary vote in 2020.

What a truly rational and sane statement to make.

Anyway, you already endorsed Trump before you even knew anything about me so you showed your true colors long ago.

[LAKISYLVANIA]

That being said, everyone has an active democratic duty and I feel like few of even red avatars really understand what that means, which is very clear from some threads or posts. Yes a lot condemn Trump but it is often just partisan bias.
