A quite startling overperformance for Democrats in tonight's special election for a state Senate seat in Kentucky:
Democrat Gary Clemons won 72% to 25%.
He was defending a Dem-held seat where Kamala Harris beat Trump by 5% last year.

Susie Wiles is one of the most brilliant political operators in the business, having guided DeSantis and then Trump to significant victories, and the idea that she doesn't know how 'on the record' worked is like saying a pilot doesn't know how to land a plane.

Bari Weiss’ much-hyped CBS News town hall with Erika Kirk was a massive ratings flop
According to Nielsen, the Saturday night town hall saw a 27 percent decline in viewership compared to the network’s standard programming in that time slot year to date.
