Can somebody let the @amyactonoh.bsky.social campaign know that repeating the same request three times in 25 seconds while offering no reason to support her campaign shows either the campaign doesn’t understand how IG ads works or is amateurish? #wedeservebetter

Salesforce has customer service operations?

Meanwhile, some campaigns aren’t taking advantage of basic tech to better communicate w voters. Although I gave a couple hundred dollars on launch day to a Senate campaign, I got five emails from them in three days asking if I could just pitch in $5. So bad. We need people who know how to use IT.

Would also love to see the %s on none of the above, someone else, not sure. By my tally, ideal candidate comes out to 79%, so the field (not surprisingly) is wide open.

Go back and watch! That expression is fantastic. She summed everything up of 1970s inflation w that one little look!

Good point, but a picky note— she actually throws it in her cart with a look of disgust/exasperation. It was a sign of the times. The original opening when the show premiered doesn’t include the clip. (Thank you for giving me an excuse to go back and look at the clips!)

Not really. In OH, people can switch parties at any primary just by asking for that party’s ballot (although technically they can be challenged), so there’s nothing preventing people from voting as Dems— except lack of competitive primaries.

I have no idea. I just stumbled across it as I was doing multi-year outreach to rural Dems in my area and noticed the #s were declining but not because people were switching parties— just that they had no reason to vote in a partisan primary so were getting shifted to Ind.

A technical question: in OH, if you don’t vote in a partisan primary in 4 (?) years, you’re switched from that party to independent. Big declines in OH registered Dems because no competitive primaries. Is this true in these other states? Does that account for some of the decline?

Absolutely. Our best chance in years.

Spokesperson for Ryan saying Sherrod’s decision means Ryan has heightened interest in running for governor. Ryan had said publicly that he wasn’t interested in running for Senate.

This season is just, um, unbearable.

“Vastly outspent.” The article says they’ve spent all of $1M on the ads— $400K more than the GOP. Reporting where they’ve placed those ads would have been more insightful. How far is the $1M going?

Stellar job of reporting priorities at NBC News where 1:45 was spent talking about a House hearing on Biden’s mental ability. And just 30 seconds more barely scratching the surface on Trump and tariff news including accepting without ? Trump’s false claim they’ve brought in hundreds of billions

Which is why we need him back in the Senate.

NBC News first 11 minutes:
1) ID firefighter shooting,
2) ID murder case,
3) Flight delays in the northeast because of— wait for it— weather,
4) Two go overboard Disney cruise

Legacy media failing again.

If the Democrats up and down the ballot don't run on economic populism and making government work for the working class, they are completely out of it. There is a complete convergence of the morally right message and the best political strategy.

I appreciate these posts but I wish you’d present it as the percentage of $1 of taxes paid. I think that’d be a more powerful argument of how little these programs cost each of us.

Obama was a great candidate, but I wouldn’t over read his margin in 2004. Keyes wasn’t just a paper candidate he was terrible, and Obama outspent him 7:1. I don’t disagree with your overall point. I just don’t think this is a good example to make your case.

Easier to do that as a Senator than as governor.

Apparently he forgot that part of the citizenship test.

Snowflakes

No offense, but this kind of politics as a sport seems so shallow with all that is happening in DC right now.
