New from me at @statenavigate.org: Democratic primary voters tend to rank a candidate's 'electability' high on their priority list for who they decide to support.

So, which Democratic candidate for Virginia Lieutenant Governor is the most electable?

If we're in a recession on Election Day 2025 as a result of all this, I think people should start to consider that there is a tangible, but minor chance Democrats create a supermajority in the Virginia House of Delegates this year.

Thread from me on tonight's special in the Iowa House, where the GOP supermajority will be decided. I'm expecting a single-digit race based on all available info, but specials are less predictable than generals given the fluctuation in turnout between each special.
