Just voted. Fingers crossed VA flips these seats 🤞🏽

virginia … don’t f*** this up

we did it jay jones

and decision desk too :)

Let’s freaking go!!!! I’m so pumped I knew VA wouldn’t let me down

Right wingers are sooooo heated and coping rn because of that Virginia redistricting that passed by popular vote and yet not a peep whenever GOP states unilaterally enforce gerrymandering, you gotta love it

Where I see things standing right now regarding the Senate:

• I think Dems will hold the current seats they have in Swing States (Georgia, Michigan, etc)

• I think they will pretty easily flip Maine and North Carolina because both states were purple to begin with and they also have popular candidates running there (Platner and Cooper)…this puts them at 49 seats

• I think Peltola is a very popular candidate in Alaska and likely leads to that state flipping…that’s 50 (Vance would still be the tiebreaker

• I think that Latino support in Texas completely flipping from MAGA (like it was in ‘24) to Dems, and especially because Talerico is an amazing candidate, and also especially because Paxton is a HORRIBLE candidate (if he beats Cornyn in the GOP runoff), I think Texas could flip as well…that gets you 51

• But here’s the kicker, 51 seats and a majority control of the Senate may not be enough to prevent Trump from confirming a new Supreme Court Justice. Why? Fetterman and his stroked out brain. I could EASILY see him voting to confirm a Trump SCOTUS justice. So that means you’re only at 50 safe “Nos” to block a SCOTUS replacement. Where can you get one more?

• Options 1 is Ohio: a lot of people had this higher as a chance because Sherrod Brown has such high name recognition. I and a lot of people in Ohio love him because he’s one of the most Pro-Union Senate Members of the the last two decades. But recent polls have not looked good and Ohio is full of brain dead Fox News voters

• Option 2 is Nebraska: because Osbourne is a strong “Independent” candidate, however I think he may pose the same problem as Fetterman — he’ll just vote for Trump SCOTUS picks, because denying that may mess up his “Independent” image

• Option 3 is Iowa: I don’t love the Dem candidates in this race, and Iowa was pretty red in 2024. The voters in the Midterm will probably be more left leaning though. The big question is will Farmers there be feeling the pinch from Trump’s policies.

Old mfers need to seriously gtfo

I swear this was the only ad I ever got on YouTube. Thank God this s*** is over.

Steyer did p well I thought. Mahan is such a Thiel plant it’s f***ing disgusting

But Bianco had me absolutely dead. You got this ridiculously bigoted cartoonishly evil cop who got this p**** ass voice that sounds like he huffed helium before the debate started

Edit: I was trying to post the California Governor debate from yesterday but it’s not working — easy to find if you search it on YouTube tho

i saw some clips on this

despite polls, i don't think any of the republican governors have a shot

especially in a general election

i think steyer is still the frontrunner here

Obviously neither of them would ever win in a head to head race with a Democrat, but because of this dumb Jungle Primary System we have, I think it’s totally possible.

As things stand now, if Mahan Porter Becerra and Steyer all remain in, then they are splitting the Dem vote 4 ways. Bianco and Hilton are only splitting it in half — and Hilton actually comes off as slightly more moderate but has the Trump endorsement and Bianco comes off as hardline MAGA, so they will probably split it pretty evenly.

So if this state is 60% Dem, 40% GOP the math is pretty clear — that breaks down to Bianco and Hilton each getting close to 20% of the vote. Question is: with 4 Dems and none standing out right now enough, can even 1 rise above the others and get 21% of the vote?

Damn, killed herself by self-immolation

need a mcmorrow disasterclass tonight

It’s the funniest s*** how conservatives keep saying “you’re going to drive all of the wealthy business owners out of California if you raise taxes on billionaires” and it’s the same s*** as Mamdani doing it in NYC… you mfers gotta gain some brain cells for a second and think about what you’re saying — you think Billionaires (who will have enough money to live wherever tf they want no matter how much you tax them) will prefer to live in buttfuck Ohio or some s*** over CALI or NYC just because they can’t buy a 50th mansion

We have a truly priceless resource (and same with NYC) in our location

How concerned should we be?

Shouldn’t the Supreme Court’s decision that allowed Texas to do this overrule this?

Like if Texas is good, why not Virginia, legally speaking of course

Yeah I’d be curious to see a legal experts take

That being said, this SCOTUS doesn’t give af about precedent

Watching tonight’s CA governor debate…

Man Bianco is the f***ing devil

And these moderators are prob the worst I’ve ever seen

All 6 conservatives on the court voted for racism to be legal

yet another 2 steps back for this s***hole country
