Oh I don't think he's a nitwit.

House races I again haven't really followed but I don't buy the dooming about national polls there either.

ETA: Somalis for Amy Acton. Apparently Vivek Ramaswamy is part of the white nationalist MAGA crowd.
Quote:

"It's our country. It's our people. Our aim is a united front for Somalia," Mohamed says. He encourages anyone in the Columbus, Ohio, area to vote and volunteer for Acton.
The Columbus, Ohio, area is home to the second-largest Somali community in the United States behind Minneapolis. There are nearly 70,000 Somali immigrants currently living in central Ohio, according to one estimate.
The New York Times dropped into the area in January amid an ICE effort to crack down on illegal immigration. The far-left mayor of Columbus called ICE's presence "unwelcome" while opposing Trump administration efforts to enforce immigration laws.

The polls are a front to justify voter fraud activities and anomalies...

while i'd be happy with dems modestly taking both chambers and gridlocking trump for the rest of his term, the ideal scenario is they win so decisively that republicans have no choice but to thoroughly excise every last trace of trump and trumpism from the gop. a man can dream.

I get people wanting to remove every last vestige of Trump but do you ever consider what your party is putting forward as a replacement?

Jihad or a reckoning.

That's the choice Democrats offer.

No one that can read your post history is falling for the "hey guys I'm really just a moderate that hates Trump" schtick

So, you are a supporter of Islamo-Marxism then. Noted.

Dem narrative is that KS is now a done deal for them.

For anyone doubting that the mainline Dems won't embrace DSA:

Quote:

Allies of establishment Democrats say the party apparatus hasn't only gotten behind El-Sayed and Jackson but has also gone above and beyondespecially compared with the far left. The Schumer-aligned super PAC, for example, had previously announced plans to spend more than $60 million on communications in support of El-Sayed and $33 million for Jackson on TV by Election Day. It hasn't announced investment in Minnesota. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Senate Democrats' campaign arm, has invested more than $21 million to support El-Sayed and $8 million for Jackson.


In other news, the fake Democrat Dan Sullivan in Alaska is still MIA. No one knows where he is. Incredible people are going to knowingly vote for fraud like that.

I'm so old, I remember when the Carter Center (yes, that Carter) lamented that even the allegations of voter interference would have a corrosive impact on trust in the elections.
Quote:

She says that even the suggestion of interference can have a negative effect on voters.

"These narratives around interference do have a corrosive effect on people's confidence in the election process."

But 2020 fortunately was the most 'fortified' election in history, of course.

That certainly isn't the narrative here in KS. If anything people think Hamilton has a slim chance to win but still unlikely given the history of the state.

Thx. I agree with that sentiment given the math. The latter tweet I just provided after hearing some 'silly' sounding optimism this am from Dan Turrentine about the state.

FWIW, here are the updates I can share from the PAC that I formerly chaired. It is a national PAC focused on federal races, so the updates are more on the Senate side.

Michigan was heading towards a big R loss, but I have not visited with anyone after the news of the last couple of days to see if has reshaped the race. I personally still think Rogers pulls this out.

NC, GA - gone by a large margin, as expected

Iowa - R expected to hold

OH - Hopeful R hold, Vivek is a real drain down ballot and may cost this seat.

ME, AK, and KS - these are the races to watch and can go either way. Not a lot of confidence in predictions, but likely a split decision.

TX - pains me to say, expected R loss. Abbott is expected to outrun Paxton by 5%. A few weeks ago, Abbott was forecasted to win by 5-6%. Since early voting models and the late decision makers have gone against R's, the hope is Abbott can hold on by 1-2% - can do the math on Paxton.

There could be more R losses across the state (Patrick most likely).

House will be blue.

The fear is that soft Republicans will stay home and independents and moderates will break big to Democrats, making the election go from bad to really bad for Republicans. "Brace for impact" is the takeaway.

We will see.

The betting odds on the Maine and Michigan Senate races shifted pretty hard to the Dems the last few weeks. RCP tracks the polymarket probabilities and the current state of play is


Maine - Jackson 75%//Collins 25%

Texas - Talarico 49%/Paxton 46%

Michigan - El Sayed 50%/Rogers 44%

Ohio - Brown 49%/Husted 46%

Kansas - Hamilton 50%/Marshall 46%

Alaska - Pelota 49%/Sullivan 48%


Iowa has a dead heat between Hinson and Turek 47%/47%

I think the tide has turned in Michigan. Rogers is also a strong candidate with crossover appeal.
