This only matters on the margins but the scheduling of the TN07 special feels a bit self-impeding from Rs

EV window runs directly into Thanksgiving: EV is 1 day shorter, but Davidson is the only county in the district offering a full final day of EV on that Wed

I’m Steyer-pilled in California atp

Unleash a couple hundred million to clear the primary field sir 🫡

I am interested to see if rural/Rep turnout picks up today in TN07 after the Kamala visit, but Chatham county is opening an additional location and Williamson is opening 2

So those two will see big turnout increases regardless, not bc of a “surge” 🙂‍↔️

I think you can fairly criticize the showboating but I do find the ardent defense of Garcia’s actions to be sooo embarrassing

I think the Supreme Court will intervene to uphold the Texas map but it would be objectively hilarious if the gerrymander which started all of this doesn’t even go through

in things literally no one asked for here are my personal top 10 pop songs this year (alphabetical order)

so ik a lot of Talarico stanning happens in my replies but this is my truth

I’m still put off by how clearly he was just using the walkout to boost his profile before his run and he obviously didn’t gaf about redistricting itself

And defending taking Adelson money is so…

Here's turnout through four days of EV in TN07

Over 20k votes cast, up 153.7% vs the same day in the primary. (This is also about 6.3% of total votes cast in 2024)

The more populous counties have been most overperforming vs the primary so far
November 16, 2025 at 4:58 PM
Miyares receiving fewer votes than he (and Herring!) received in 2021 is kind of silencing me lol
November 16, 2025 at 1:51 AM
Statewide %RV turnout is just a hair below 2021, 54.3% vs 54.9%, but the electorates are very different

2021: Reddest localities held up best, bluest lagged
2025: Bluest cities and counties excelled, reddest (esp in SWVA) didn't show up

With Richmond’s update, we have what should be our final totals in VA

Spanberger +15.36%
Hashmi +11.56%
Jones +6.68%

Statewide turnout is 76.2% of 2024

Spanberger finished at nearly 85% of Harris’ vote total, and she also received more votes than Trump 2020 in VA

Here are the 20 closest HoD races from VA this year, including all 13 flips

For educational purposes, I also put the net spending advantage/disadvatange the Dem candidate had

I wonder if any patterns will emerge 🧐
November 14, 2025 at 9:57 PM
The winner of that NJ special primary is going to get like 10% of the vote at this rate lol
November 14, 2025 at 8:31 PM
Richmond is finally beginning to report!

So far 1500 of >4k provisionals, splitting Spanberger 92.5-7.5
November 14, 2025 at 6:34 PM
Albemarle County fully in (surrounds Charlottesville); was Harris +33.9

Spanberger +40.9
Hashmi +36.9
Jones +31.1

Turnout 83% of 2024, Spanberger at 89% of Harris’ vote total

UVA precinct: Spanberger +77.5
Harris +63.5 (before provisionals, prob by less including them)
November 14, 2025 at 6:17 PM
I’m guessing 10-15 counties in Texas will cast more raw votes in 2026 than in 2024

I’ll revisit after the primary but that’s my truth for now
November 14, 2025 at 5:33 PM
ready to hear something unhinged

Montgomery County, Tennessee
day 1 of ev: 51.4% of 2024's day 1
day 2 of ev: 43.5% of 2024's day 2
November 14, 2025 at 3:44 AM
Clean margins right now
November 14, 2025 at 12:04 AM

Spanberger +78.1
Hashmi +74.6

Manassas City, the other plurality Latino city, voted Harris +14.8

Spanberger +31
Hashmi +27.1
Jones +23

The two majority Hispanic precincts:
001: Harris +25 —> Spanberger +46

November 13, 2025 at 9:19 PM
Last big chunk of votes left in VA is Richmond, which hasn’t updated since election night (around 6k outstanding there)

Then Albemarle, Alexandria, Charlottesville, Hampton, & Norfolk combine for ~6k provisionals and with Richmond that’s 95% of what’s left
November 13, 2025 at 7:26 PM
Fredericksburg: Harris +31.5

Spanberger +43.8
Hashmi +38.4
Jones +33.8

Spanberger won provisionals 208-23 (+80%)
Harris won them 320-173 (+29%)
November 13, 2025 at 6:23 PM
No one was really talking about this race but it ended up being among the closest in the state

Last finance report had the R outspending the Dem $210k-$45k
