Just an extraordinary performance for Democrats tonight in the Louisiana special election — winning a Trump +13 seat with a 38-point overperformance.

look if actual R voters, not just Indys, are starting to vote Dem in any numbers at all shit’s gonna get real wonky in the fall
Just by looking at a cursory glance of the turnout by precinct, this doesn't look like a case of Democratic areas turning out more than Republican areas.
In fact, the opposite. Chasity Martinez won by winning over a bunch of Trump voters

every time I do a thread like this about a good election result I get a whole lot of “don’t get ahead of yourself, we still gotta make sure people are motivated for November” replies/quotes and while I understand the sentiment you know what gets people motivated?

Dems are now overperforming the 2024 lean of red districts by, uh, 30+ points in special elections
I’m not sure “apocalyptic” is sufficient to describe how the environment is starting to look for the GOP in November

RESULT: Democrat Chasity Martinez wins a special election for a legislative seat in Louisiana, 62% to 38%.
This was a district that Trump carried by 13% last year, so a big overperformance by Dems, but the seat was already Dem-held.

Martinez is pulling off a ~40 point over performance by winning over DEEP SOUTH REPUBLICANS.
Dem seat be damned; this isn’t “it’s just a special election territory.” We’re entering the “make 2010 look like a GOP underperformance” zone.
Congratulations to Iowa Governor-elect Rob Sand

Calling up your Dem senators and thanking them for doing this is how you encourage them to hold the line, no matter how low your estimation of them is
👀 Every Senate Democrat + Collins and Murkowski just voted for the Bernie Sanders amendment to repeal the $75 billion in additional ICE funding under Trump’s “big beautiful bill.” The measure failed 49-51.

The march in Chicago has continued on past Trump Tower and is turning back south into downtown.
The snow is coming down hard now.
As it does, the column chants, "say it once and say it twice, we do not fuck with ICE"

It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

This is how authoritarian narratives work you smear the victim, praise the armed agent, and ignore the killing. No video justifies an execution. No insult erases due process. This is propaganda, not accountability.
