Sheldon Whitehouse Stan

in NJ there’s a fair bit of fatigue from having a dem governor for so long. In VA there’s none of that + DOGE cuts and that’s going to be bad for her

(FWIW I supported lamb)

Except Fetterman is much different from sinema tho lol.

Fetterman just vaguely countersignals the party but is a reliable party line vote despite it. He’s incredibly pro labor and is probably economically to the left of a lot of senators

It’s because Reynolds is super duper unpopular

Minneapolis somewhat resident here, can confirm he sucks

Trump isn’t covering up for Epstein. He’s covering up for Trump.

James underran Trump in 2024 if I’m not mistaken so he might’ve lost anyway tbh

Yeah I’m going to be entering the job market in 2-4 years…..

Hopefully he doesn’t screw things up too bad at least as far as tech is concerned for me tho I’m not optimistic

He isn’t really a potential candidate to run against Susan Collins.

He worked for her

Sacrilege!

Ok but you need to admit this is more about optics than anything else

McCarthy definitely would have

A lot of their ideas are being said with them knowing that they’re never going to actually happen tbf

Yeah right now I’m banking on a less favorable midterm than 2018….

But the maps are good enough for Dems that the difference between D+4 and 8 is not a lot

Mcginty’s suburban numbers weren’t good in 2016 but depasquale got the same suburban numbers but significantly outperformed in rural Pa. He almost won fayette!

Seems to me that the row offices are tough lifts for Ds in the past two elections largely because the ancestrals have realigned harder downballot than the suburbs have.

Makes you reevaluate certain things…..

AG bombing out as badly as the rest of the row offices makes you think that Shapiro was just exceptional in 2020 and what happened with torsella wasn’t unavoidable but at least understandable.

Has nothing to do with biden

Matt Cartwright was part of the Progressive caucus and outperformed Harris by almost 7 points, deluzio outran both Harris and Bob Casey……
I’m not saying prog is more electable but I don’t think it has to do with labels like that at all

I don’t get what happened in Richmond this cycle considering how the burbs stagnated everywhere else

I mean the steelworkers union, deluzio, kaptur, etc all opposed the deal lol. You don’t have to like it and I agree with the rest of the tweet but saying “nobody wanted this” is a stretch. He’s being consistent with his pro union policies, for better or for worse

Yup

The even longer streak are the Germans in western Ohio who hate FDR and have voted R since

This is where I am at but at least in the senate a wash is as good as we can hope

same for big AG

Went to Chicago, would recommend!

Opposite as well in a weird way, nc and wi were probably the worst swing states in 2022 and they were one of the better ones this year

Yeah I don’t think Grassley got punished due to age, I think it was just polarization. If you look at the trend from 2004 in each of his senate races he won by less and less and less

Can’t wait for the next one! Happy holidays!

why thune? Isn’t Johnson the only one that’s in trouble here?
