Right now, there are three by-elections that retake the House. Democrats on the ground are mobilising voters to make that happen. Elected officials are gumming up whatever they can.

If you have seriously created a list of one left-leaning woman’s followers with the express purpose to mock or block them and encourage others to do so, you’re doing me the favour of blocking you in advance.
You absolute nards.
