Dems building a bench of senators younger than 75 challenge fail

Eric Michael Garcia @ericmgarcia.bsky.social · 11h

Janet Mills's campaign account just posted this video of her saying that she just announced her campaign against Susan Collins. #MESen. Mills, 77, is expected to jump in the race against Collins. She would face Graham Platner, Jordan Wood and Dan Kleban.

I just announced my campaign for U.S. Senate to defeat Susan Collins because Maine families deserve a senator who fights back and stands up for us.

So please, can you donate 5 or 10 dollars right now to help me flip this Senate seat blue?

Yeah she's in a "magnet" program for elementary, so she had to apply and take a test and interview to get into elementary school.

Now she's gotta do that again but for middle school. The kids are smarter than us

They can earn highschool credits in middle school now! It's wild. We were lucky to have AP classes, they have the opportunity to be able to take even more classes!

Just got back from learning about the International Baccalaureate program for my oldest. Middle school is wayyy different now

I saw that you're planning on native apps, any opportunity for a 15 year Android dev to help accelerate those plans?
