Even though Trump has endorsed Miller-Meeks in #IA01, you have to wonder how safe she is against MAGA primary challenger David Pautsch, who got about 44% of the votes in the 2024 primary.

Tweet from Lakshya Jain:

James Talarico is going to need a WAR of D+6 in order to beat Ken Paxton, if that's who he faces. 

I can't stress enough how tough that is. Even Fetterman vs Oz didn't get a candidate effect of that magnitude. Paxton has to be one of the worst candidates of all time to lose this race.

This post really solidified how pointless talking about political WAR is to me.

We're in the process of some pretty Earth shattering political shifts, particularly with Hispanic voters. The idea that right now we can easily map what a needed WAR score would be seems ludicrous.

Uh, all the precincts are reporting in the North Carolina #SD26 Republican primary and State Senate President Phil Berger is losing by TWO VOTES!

Sam Page- 50.00% (13,077)
Phil Berger (Inc)- 50.00% (13,075)

#NC04 is coming down to the wire!

Valerie Foushee (Inc)- 49.8%
Nida Allam- 47.7%
Mary Patterson- 2.5%

10 precincts left in Durham and 23 in Wake, both places where Allam is winning. She only needs to net 2,300 votes to take the lead

Y'know how the Wyoming Republican Party kicked out Liz Cheney?

Colorado Democrats need to do the same to this idiot.
