With the 2025 election season concluded, we can calculate that on average, Democrats outperformed Kamala Harris by 13.5 points.
For comparison, in 2017, Democrats outperformed Hillary Clinton by an average of 10 points, while in 2021, Republicans tended to outperform Trump by 5 points.

Politically, any hires from this campaign are sure to backfire in a very public way. These folks will likely be more incompetent and cruel than their predecessors, and that will only create more resistance. Practically, it means many more people are going to be unnecessarily targeted and hurt.

Iowa Dems remain absolutely ablaze.
They started 2025 with a shocking double-digit overperformance in a State Senate seat (that unexpectedly flipped) and they ended 2025 with a shocking double-digit overperformance in a State Senate seat, with several others wins (and one other flip) in between.

The last special election of 2025 happens on December 30th - and it has huge implications especially if you live in West Des Moines. If you live in IA SD-16, please get out and vote for Renee Hardman so that the GOP doesn't get the supermajority in the Iowa State Senate.
