Newsom and Pritzker are the democrats problem. they underperformed the democratic baseline in their elections. Newsom preformed even worse than Harris LOL.

You wording makes it seem like democrats are doing bad but in reality they ae doing pretty well.
December 15, 2025 at 8:33 PM
Well in that case I think you might be right because the first person to come to mind who pleases everyone is @andybeshearky.bsky.social

The democrats problem is that they think A white man is necessary but democrats need pretty much the opposite. the need someone who can win back the Hispanic, Asian and Arab American voters that Harris lost a lot of ground with. I think @fernandez.house.gov might be that candidate.

another option for for democrats to secure Stein's veto pen is to gain one seat in the state senate. and I think they will pick up one seat(SD 11).

if all the moderate to conservative democrats win their primaries democrats would need a net gain of four seats in the chamber to make Stein's veto secure. I think the democrats will have a net gain of exactly four. (HD 105, 35, 74 and 25).

This is one of the most interesting chambers to watch next year. there are primaries in the state house that are as important as the general election.

did Spanberger actually do this?

It is ironic that he endorses candidates who oppose gay rights(like Winsome Sears)

I hope they stop endorsing Brian Fitzpatrick. Glad they endorsed you

In this race there are three democrats running against her. those three very need to speak to each other and coalesce around one. in other words two need to drop out, so they do not split the anti Cunningham vote. @rodneysadler.com have you spoken to the other two candidates yet?
Rep. Carla Cunningham, the Democrat who faced a jeering hometown crowd this summer after delivering a controversial speech on the state House floor criticizing immigrants, is seeking an eighth term. ncnewsline.com/briefs/nc-re... by @lbonner.bsky.social #ncpol

This is something liberals agree will with him on. (Including me)

I am a democrat because I believe in checks and balances and I believe you should put people(regardless of their political views) over AI

This Georgia flip is in a district that the GOP drew to drown Democratic voters in Athens into a neighboring red county, Oconee.

But tonight, Dems in Athens were out in FULL FORCE to swamp that gerrymander.

This is also notable because republican gerrymander this seat. the split Clark county in half. so it would never have a democratic representee. seems like it didn't work this time!

you showed us that the democrats can win flip the Georgia state house in 2026. and we can finally give democrats a seat at the table in the state after the 2026 elections. after 20+ years of having no legislative power in the state. 2/2

This contradicts some of what he is saying
Trump gives Nvidia the OK to sell advanced AI chips to China
Nvidia had been at the centre of a geopolitical tug-of-war between the US and China in recent months.

I think the best path is NC, ME(with Mills), AK with Pelota, and than KS With Mr. Beat
