Vote Erin Houchin OUT & stop ghosting Hoosiers

JOIN US FOR THE ‘GHOST HUNT’ RALLY — OCTOBER 19

OUR CONGRESSWOMAN IS GHOSTING US. She hides from town halls and keeps voting against us. She won’t show up, so we will

On Sunday, October 19, 2025, join Friends of Brad Meyer at the Washington County Fairgrounds… in her backyard.

We’ve got the whole place: speakers, food, info booths, and an all-ages costume contest (detail at www.BradMeyer.org Event Tab).

EVENT DETAILS
Who:   Brad Meyer, Democratic candidate for U.S. Congress, Indiana’s 9th District 
What:    'Ghost Hunt' Rally and community gathering When: Sunday, October 19, 2025 | Fun 1–5 PM | Rally 2–4 PM 
Where: Washington County Fairgrounds, 118 N. Fair St., Salem, IN 47161 Why:   To call attention to Representative Erin Houchin’s absence from the district and to show growing community support for change.

WHAT TO EXPECT
What to Bring: A chair, signs, and friends and family.

Car Procession: After the rally, we'll take the message to her office with a mobile car procession. Decorate your car to show your support!

Call to Action: Forward this email today. Share it with friends. Most importantly: show up on October 19th.

Join the Fight: To learn more about our campaign, volunteer, or donate – Go to bradmeyer.org

The rally is designed to be both a spirited event and a family-friendly gathering. Festivities will include speakers on topics of importance to Hoosiers, music, food trucks, and an all-ages costume contest, along with opportunities to connect directly with Brad Meyer and campaign volunteers. Supporters are encouraged to bring homemade signs and their voices for an afternoon of straight talk and community energy.

Brad Meyer said: “Our Congresswoman has been ghosting the people of southern Indiana. She’s absent from our district, out of touch with everyday families, and voting with special interests instead of us. It’s time to send her a message. On October 19, let’s make it clear: southern Indiana won’t be ignored.”

Gov Mills has done a good job for the people of Maine but it’s time for the younger generation to take over

People want a change……

ElieNYC @elienyc.bsky.social · 21h

Not that anybody comes to me for Maine politics, but the fact that the Democrats successfully convinced a 77yo Governor to primary the 41yo progressive, is today's example of why the Democrats fucking stay failing.

Susan Collins is 72 and if Schumer gets his way, she'll be the YOUNGER choice!

He is sort of right…….the shelves are empty….so groceries are down……because the tariff prices are up ……which
makes it to expensive for the stores to stock the shelves & for people to buy the groceries

Doesn’t have any strategy coz he has to wait & see what the next insane thing is that trump wants him to spew🤮

MeidasTouch @meidastouch.com · 19h

Meiselas: MAGA Mike Johnson was being questioned about the shutdown during this disastrous press conference he held. He literally says, “I don’t have any strategy." Then Rep. Lisa McClain jumps in, apparently realizing Mike Johnson had just blown it and she completely unravels on camera.

bindergirl @bindergirl.bsky.social · 13h

Said it much nicer than I would have.

My comment would have been: “Speaker Johnson…why don’t you get your balls out of trumps golf bag, grab a copy of the oath & take 90seconds to swear me into office”

Please & thank you….dickhead….oh your name is Mike?

Adelita for Congress @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social · 13h

All the drug tiers make it so hard to understand. And you don’t know what might happen during the year & end up with drugs that are not covered under your current plan. All of Medicare is hard to understand. Your mominlaw is lucky she has you trying to figure it out💙

IndyAnna @indyannapolis.bsky.social · 15h

I spent 3 days of hard research on Medicare part d plans for my motherinlaw. I didn’t have the heart to warn her she may well end up with no plan at all in the very near future. It’s all fucking bullshit.

Maybe make yourself a little less obvious, take off some of the fake gear & go to a truck stop. They have bathrooms, showers & hot dogs that have been cooking for 14 hrs.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

MIKE JOHNSON: I've not seen them cross the line yet.

Jack Hopkins-The Original @therealjackhopkins.bsky.social · 18h

Trump WH says its prepared to “ride out” the shut down. That translates to: This was planned. It was never meant to be short…and…oh yeah…we are going to f**k things up even worse during this period of time.

Instead of working to get the government open and pay our troops and air traffic controllers and helping his constituents keep their health plans, Mike Johnson has been tasked with helping Trump get the Nobel next year.

That is really scary that a part time resident “assumes” that this logging company will ONLY mark HIS trees& only remove HIS trees. He should have been ON SITE when they were marked.

Get your purple paint out & mark your fence & every tree if you need to.

I'mjustagirljm🌻 @justagirl52.bsky.social · 1d

Also my broken fence was caused by a crew he hired & he offered to fix it.
So... now I have the new owners name & contact info. He is a part time resident, like the previous owner. 2/2

Great article-one of the reasons I love Pete is because he DOES understand that AFTER trump…..this country needs to rebuild in a BETTER way
We can’t just put ALL things back the way they were. Some of our systems are broken
Dems….need to understand going back is NOT the answer Doing better better IS
