2025/2026 Elections Congressional & State

[UNI88]

The most damning accusation comes from a Republican op. That’s bad enough without the Dem establishment piling on.

Meanwhile, for comparison:

Lol the Democrats had the scruples to order the Code Red on Platner while he can still be replaced with Mills while the MAQA Republicans celebrated Paxton's nomination (and trump's election).

FYP

Yep. Just like I said.

Dem establishment hates progressives more than Republicans. They attacked Platner from the start of the primary.

Federal court blocks Alabama from using GOP-drawn congressional map

A three-judge panel Tuesday blocked a Republican-drawn congressional map in Alabama from going into effect, writing that the district lines “intentionally discriminated based on race in violation of the Constitution.”
...
“The Legislature well knew that a plan without an additional Black-opportunity district would dilute Black Alabamians’ opportunity to participate in the political process, and it intentionally enacted that very plan,” the panel wrote. “Further, the Legislature well knew what dilutive mechanisms would prevent Black voters in Alabama’s Black Belt and Gulf Coast communities from having any opportunity to elect representatives of their choice, and the Legislature employed precisely those mechanisms.”
...
But the map was originally challenged under both the Voting Rights Act and the 14th Amendment, and the court confirmed it still stood by its ruling that it violated the 14th Amendment.

Lib judges overruled 6-3. Roll Tide!

These elections will be contested in the courts. Unless the R’s retain control of both houses. Americans shouldn’t be this gullible when it comes to propaganda. Media is partly to blame.

WASHINGTON, April 23 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's years-long campaign to undermine faith in U.S. elections has ​gained broad traction with the American public, a Reuters/Ipsos poll shows, potentially creating fertile ground for misinformation heading into November's midterm elections.

The six-day poll completed Monday showed ‌sharp partisan divides over trust in elections, with solid majorities of Republicans saying fraud is widespread -- despite a lack of evidence to support this claim -- and favoring federal law enforcement presence at polls.

Some 46% of respondents said they agreed with the statement that there are large numbers of fraudulent ballots cast by non-citizens in U.S. elections, with 82% of Republicans agreeing compared with 18% of Democrats and
About 53% of respondents said ​they were worried about fraudulent mail‑in or absentee ballots, compared with 43% who said they were not, with partisan division again apparent: 83% of Republicans expressed concern, versus ​33% of Democrats.

Taken together, the responses indicate that years of messaging by Trump and his allies casting doubt on voting have resonated strongly with ⁠Republicans, particularly around claims that non‑citizens vote in significant numbers and that mail‑in ballots are unreliable, despite repeated audits and academic research finding fraud in either case to be exceedingly rare.
More broadly, the ​poll suggests that many Americans have been primed to accept claims of wrongdoing in November's elections, when Democrats are favored to win back the House of Representatives and control of the Senate will also be ​up for grabs amid voter discontent over the war with Iran and stubbornly high inflation.

Ken Paxton's attorney in his impeachment trial endorses James Talarico in US Senate race

"I worked my ass off for the man for nine years," Cogdell said in an interview with The Associated Press. "But that's a different inquiry. My obligation to Ken ended at the courthouse steps and my obligation as a citizen is to do what I think is the right thing."

Cogdell said Texas needs a lot of work, pointing to education and health care, "and to simply bootlick or rubber stamp Trump, that's not what we need in D.C. right now." He also recently spoke to Talarico at length on Cogdell's podcast.

Cogdell is voting for Tala-Freakin-Rico.

Hoax -

clinton lost to trump because she was a horribly unpopular candidate.

trump lost to biden because he was a horribly unpopular candidate.

harris lost to trump because she was a horribly unpopular candidate.

trump and MAQA are relying on redistricting because they are horribly unpopular.

No collusion proven doesn’t mean it didn’t affect the outcome. This not exactly a secret.

Going by that standard then in 2020 no fraud proven doesn‘t mean there wasn’t any, and it didn’t affect the outcome.

Going by that standard then in 2020 no fraud proven doesn‘t mean there wasn’t any, and it didn’t affect the outcome.

Except there was zero evidence of fraud in 2020 and a metric shit ton of evidence regarding Russian influence.

Holy shit!

69.5 million 2008 Obama
65.9 million 2012 Obama
65.8 million 2016 Clinton
81.3 million 2020 Biden (vs Trump with no convictions & civil judgements)
75.0 million 2024 Harris (vs Trump with convictions & civil judgements + a larger electorate)

Yeah if you want to believe mass mail in of ballots in most states for the 1st time the above all makes sense and the 81.3 million was all legit.

Newsflash: Russia has tried to meddle in every POTUS election post WWII. There‘s ZERO evidence that Russia‘s weak attempts had any effect on the outcome of the election.

[Caribbean Hen]

Although it never happens, according to our self appointed geniuses on here, guess what it’s happening again

Dozens of non citizens found to have voted in Blue NJ for decades...in just one county. And these are the ones found.

And Dems say there is no problem and fight for any tightening of rules to protect voting integrity. We all know why.

81.3 million 2020 Biden - was more about how sick people were of trump. And trump's numbers in 2024 were about how sick people were of biden/harris, not how popular trump or his agenda were. Those are the realities that MAQA is too delusional and cowardly to face.

No there wasn’t

The proof is the vote count

No way No how Joey the Con got 16 more million more votes than Obama did in 2008….

That’s one of the reasons Joey hid out in the basement for the entire campaign because he knew the books were totally cooked in his favor

They weren't voting for biden, they were voting against trump. That's how unpopular he was.

That’s not proof. That’s weak evidence at best and evidence can mislead.

Voter turnout has been trending up hard since 2000 with jump from 2000. And many voting decades typically don’t vote at all.

I’d say proof or STFU but we’ve already established that the truth is hard for you guys haven’t we?

[BDKJMU]

Psst…hey GOP. Your attack methods for Platner and Talarico are only landing with MAGA. Thought you should know.

So he‘s posted some left wing stuff (like I’m a communist) with all the anti women, racist, misogynist stuff he’s posted online that’s been dug up.

lol keep believing that a guy who has stated he is a history nerd, had no idea both when he got it with other members of his unit, and then for the following 18 years, that his big NAZI tattoo (later adopted by white supremeacists btw) he had plastered on his chest, was a NAZI tattoo. Even an ex gf has come out to the NYT and he said he called it ‘my Totenkopf‘. Just wait until a member of his unit is dug up and says yeah we all knew what the tatoo meant. Only leftists actually believe he had no idea.

I’m glad the lefties in the Maine donk primary went with Platner. Mills would have been a more formidable Gen election candidate for Collins. More skeletons are probably going to come out of Platner‘s closet, esp with all the dumb shit he said online. Platner and Transarico are both going to lose. Bigly.

[Baldy]

Lol the Democrats ordered the Code Red on Platner while he can still be replaced with Mills.

Yep. Just like I said.

Who knew the Progtards would cede the moral high ground and go all-in on a mysogynistic, Nazi, girlfriend beating, racist who loves to mock purple heart recipients and troll around on child predator apps?
