HD-41 voted for Trump by around 3% in 2024

Lily Franklin ran a textbook campaign on how to turn out young voters

But she also persuaded them to back Dems after it was close last year

A lot Dems can learn from her campaign about organizing on campus

Absolute blowout, especially by VA standards. Way bigger than 2017. And, once again, a veritable tsunami of transphobic attack ads did nothing to curb Spanberger's momentum.

It happened

Spanberger is going to win by more than 15% with a few more votes to count

Don’t think she will get to 2 million votes, but she will win by over 500K net votes

β€œ.. There were no counties or cities (as of writing) that moved right relative to four years ago. On average, they instead moved 13 points to the left.”

Trump filed lawsuits over jokes, tweets, and news articles, but not once over any of the countless allegations of child rape. I feel like more people should mention that.

Between what came before and what happened tonight, Dems ought to treat encounters with CBS reporters as presumptively hostile and untrustworthy. A small thing, but there’s no way out of this disaster if the party continues helplessly submitting to unequal treatment from ~all mediating institutions.

For the love of God, can just one interviewer push back on this insanity?

There are people seeking political asylum in America. They were not taken out of mental asylums in other countries and brought here.

It's a big mistake with big ramifications, but no one wants to correct Our Special Boy.

Proof of violation of federal law where the Trump administration uses government websites for political attacks against Democrats.

The president thinks federal goons haven’t been violent *enough* with the American people.

The president seems to hope that his thugs will kill someone soon.

If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.

This isn’t just an improper blending of church and state.

It’s a twisted mockery of Christianity that ought to offend any actually devout Christian.

Showing armed soldiers moving into battle as you lip service β€œβ€¦ as we forgive those who trespass against us” sorta misses the point.

It’s been FIFTEEN YEARS and the media is still letting Republicans pretend they have some super-secret concept of a hidden plan to maybe consider a covert proposal that could theoretically be implemented in a hypothetical simulation of a Congress run by people who are not actually clowns.

When you grew up in rural Oklahoma you know the singular reason why poor white Americans support Trump is for his racism. Because you know that those same people would look at this and be outright disgusted.

This is the elitism that they hate… but not as much as they hate post desegregation USA.
