Whoa‼️ Dems could lose 19 seats due to GOP gerrymandering.

CA, UT & MD can’t fight fire with fire alone. Other blue states must step up, and every Democrat needs to vote. Don’t sit out any election.

Push your governors and legislators to act. Tell friends and family to vote. Help them. #YesOnProp50

Jeffries: "It's perplexing to us that Rs refuse to spend a dime to protect the healthcare of the American people, but somehow the Trump admin found $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina in ways that are also going to continue to hurt our soybean farmers in Iowa & the Midwest"

More coverage of the crucial Pennsylvania State Supreme Court retention elections that are not getting nearly enough attention.

All 3 Democratic Justices MUST BE RETAINED.

Not doing so will impact redistricting, voting rights, abortion, and so much more.

National Parties Are Investing in These ‘Sleepy’ Pennsylvania Retention Elections

“This is one of the most important races in the country that nobody’s talking about,” a vice chair at the Democratic National Committee told NOTUS.

In fact, "Democrats" didn't kill Charlie Kirk; this is a wild lie - and really sick, dangerous, deranged rhetoric. bluevirginia.us/2025/10/wedn...

Sign in the Fredericksburg VA area, supporting Winsome Earle-Sears, 100% falsely claims that Democrats "killed a Christian, killed a father, killed a patriot."
