Big, big day in specials tomorrow. Dems have a chance to flip the Miami Mayoral office and a state House seat in Georgia. We’re also defending a close-ish state House seat in FL and the Mayoral office in Albuquerque.
Get ready for a fun one tomorrow!

It’s Election Day tomorrow!
And it’s a big one because Democrats have a big shot at flipping the mayor’s office in Miami.
And also they’re aiming for an upset flip in the state House in Georgia.

Really interesting to see the breakout by generation.
Again, still very very early but this kind of stuff is always fascinating to me to see what & who is breaking through.

This is very, very well said. And I think boils down well what 2028 is going to be, or at least a big part of it:
- What have you done over the last 4 years to push back?
- What's your plan to rebuild?
- What's your plan for retribution?
- What have you done over the last 4 years to push back?
- What's your plan to rebuild?
- What's your plan for retribution?
Yeah, a big chunk of 2028, not the entire ballgame but a big chunk, is going to be "what did you do for us in the past four years?" and nobody's gonna get to do the surprised pikachu face if the folks with good answers to that question have an early leg up

I’ve pretty much decided that the best thing for me over the next few years is to just block people that are going to shit on potential Dem presidential candidates.
Centrists on AOC, Lefties on Newsom, whoever on Shapiro, don’t care.
2028 is the ballgame. Get serious or keep shit to yourself.

Fully agree with my pal @purrtah.bsky.social. Feel how you will about Josh Shapiro. This is a win/win for everybody. If he and his team help orchestrate a big midterm in PA, he puts himself in a strong potential position for 2028.

Fantastic read on how the WI maps will be decided on. Sounds like a pretty thorough process but like @trumpstaxes.com, I’m optimistic we get something before WI primaries in August!
Good reminder that we still might get new, fair House maps in Wisconsin prior to the 2026 midterms.
The 3-judge panels reviewing the cases are helmed by jurists who may very well rule in Dems’ favor.

I've really been on a tear lately blocking & muting people that constantly doom or say debbie downer shit all the time.
I hate that I've muted and blocked some folks that I genuinely like but I just don't have time for that shit.

This could potentially be a very big deal. Would basically keep the old map in place until the new vote!
If they have enough, it would put Missouri’s new map on hold until a vote takes place.
Proponents of a ballot measure to repeal Missouri’s new gerrymandered congressional map say they plan to turn in signatures next week.

Susan Collins still hasn’t filed for reelection and wasn’t 100% committal in an interview today. Honestly no idea what she does, notable that it’s coming after TN-07, she has to know that a 13-pt swing left (Maine D+20 if it’s uniform) is almost unsurvivable even if the Dem is a paper bag
