It's expensive and has low reliability, and has scaling issues if there ever were too many users.
It also screams 'too big to fail' in how it works.

You gotta hold everyone accountable, regardless of what side they're on. Giving people a free pass because of a 'D'? Not good.
Giving people a free pass because they're a 'R'? VERY not good.
For some reason nobody ever holds R's responsible for anything. Why is that?

I know who Andy Kim is.
It's very, very possible to give the boot to bad Democratic party members, and it happens all the time. The worst examples have been getting the boot, one after another.
Meanwhile, Trump's asking for straight-up million dollar bribes on a website, via online shopping.

What you need are energetic people who want to make the world a better place, and are able to talk with people and not look like utter pillocks.
A lot of the time that'll be a progressive. Sometimes it isn't. Either can be fine.

There's a few others. One in the Arctic, and one in British Columbia, IIRC.
When you fly these things around constantly a few get lost. The Soviets absolutely have lost some they've never spoken about.

Over Covid, they did the math and figured they'd gain more votes than they'd lose.

I mean, maybe? But the one in the GA house district was a flip of about one more percentage with a significantly lower turnout..
I'd say her performance in TN was about average, and she was against a better-than average GoP candidate.

The Dem legislative slate has no fear of letting their state's own voters decide the matter. They also haven't asked them, year upon year, decade upon decade, to approve terrible maps for tiny bits of power federally.

So I look at individual parts of the district, where the worst performance is in Springfield, TN. At the same time, her performance in Nashville and some of the other extreme rural counties is very good.
No, I don't think the result supports calling her a noticeably bad or good candidate.

Is that true? Turnout in TN-7 was high, many districts in, say, VA were far worse performances than Behn, and Behn beat about half of all dem specials.
That said.. supporting you, the half she outperformed include many mini-turnout deep=blue elections where the D share decreased.

Literally, the judge inserted a line into the judgement stating that there was an order.
A line that didn't exist before doing so.
Yes, this same justification could be used to change verdicts.

Trump writes an EO banning federal employee unions, the blue party forces a vote on it, and they get it overturned.
An actual policy, and it's one of the ones that you listed up top.
