You don't know that and it doesn't change your double standard.

So require voter ID without making people jump through hoops and pay any amount of money (poll tax) to get a specialized ID.

And tell the hypocrite in the oval office to STFU about voting by mail.

Fuller wins 55.9%-44.1% For MTG‘s seat. The donk Shawn Harris, a retired brigadier Army general, tried running as a centrist/moderate donk. I even heard him on the Clay and Buck show. They claim to have invited many, but Harris was the 1st democrat running for election I recall in 4+ years having on there. Harris claimed he was approached by some local Republicans about running for the seat, not knowing he was a Democrat. At the end of the interview Buck even said to Harris you sound like a Republican, Harris stuck to his I‘m a moderate/independent Democrat shtick.

Republicans win Georgia race — but Democrats post largest swing yet in special House elections
Republican attorney Clay Fuller, Trump’s pick to fill the seat vacated by GOP former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s resignation this year, is projected to defeat Democrat Shawn Harris and hold Georgia's 14th Congressional District for Republicans. But the results Tuesday look nothing like in 2024, when Trump won the district by almost 37 points and Greene won by about 29 points.

Fuller led Harris by 55.9% to 44.1% with 99% of the expected vote in, according to NBC News’ Decision Desk. That's a 12-point margin — and a 25-point swing from Trump's margin.

‘A wow moment’: Democrats’ election hot streak goes scorching
Democrats just had one of their best election nights since President Donald Trump returned to the White House. Again.

In Wisconsin’s Supreme Court election, the Democratic-backed candidate sailed to a nearly 20-point landslide victory Tuesday in a battleground Trump carried less than two years ago. Meanwhile, a Georgia Democrat slashed Trump's margin of victory by two thirds in the state's reddest district despite losing the election — the most significant overperformance the party has seen across all seven House special elections so far this cycle.

The results in the battleground states — home to key Senate, gubernatorial and House races — are the latest repudiation from voters of Trump and his agenda and flashing warning signs for the GOP heading into November.
I disagree that “enthusiasm for Democrats is growing everywhere.” IMO, it's more a matter of dissatisfaction with trump and MAQA.

It’s an offyear when the party not in power in the WH traditionally does better.

-Donks traditionally do better in Special elections.

The donks ran a right leaning donk with a military background who in any blue district would be a conk.

So the conk only won by about 12 instead of about 29 that MTG did.

Tell yourself whatever you need to to keep that big bad Democratic boogeyman hidden under your bed but it doesn't completely explain the "largest swing yet" in a special House election.

I didn‘t even include a 4th factor this election happened while the Iran War still ongoing which probably cost the conk several points, even though the donk candidate said he supported the actions against Iran.

But keep fapping to yourself that it signifies some sea change for the donks gaining power in 2026..

Biden ally tells Spanberger to exit ‘bunker’ as ex-gov renews debate push
Michael LaRosa says Spanberger squandered goodwill and let the GOP define her within months of taking office

A former top official in the Biden administration slammed Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger as wrongly following Joe Biden’s playbook, squandering "goodwill" and allowing the GOP to define her, demanding she "come out of her Biden bunker."

The swipe comes as former Gov. George Allen offered to debate her virtually on the subject of redistricting if timing was an issue in her original rejection, and Spanberger briskly avoided a Fox News Digital reporter who confronted the tight-lipped governor in Richmond this week.

Michael LaRosa, former first lady Jill Biden’s longtime top aide and spokesperson, slammed Spanberger on Tuesday, unfavorably comparing her to former President Joe Biden and calling a Washington Post poll showing her as the governor with the highest unfavorables dating back to Allen’s era "entirely self-inflicted and avoidable."

LaRosa called Spanberger’s fall from a landslide-winning candidate to a controversial chief executive "a classic, but all too familiar tale."

"[She] came in with a mandate and genuine goodwill, and within months, the GOP succeeded in branding her a wolf in sheep’s clothing," he said.

"Instead of confronting it, the governor defaulted to the old 1990s ‘don’t give it oxygen’ playbook prescribed for Biden throughout his four years: duck and cover."

LaRosa added on X that ignoring "attacks, smears and misinformation" doesn’t make them disappear but instead creates a vacuum for Spanberger and allows her opponents to define her.

"What started as silly right-wing noise is now a mainstream narrative, and it’s reflected in her first report card. She needs to channel the badass, confrontational Abby Spanberger from that Nov[ember] 2020 caucus call — spicy, direct and pragmatic."

He suggested she hold regular pressers, get combative with reporters and accept interviews with mainstream media.

"She has to show and tell and climb out of the Biden bunker," LaRosa said, before borrowing a line President Donald Trump used toward African American voters unsure of whether to break with Hillary Clinton and Democratic Party orthodoxy in 2016:

"What the hell does she have to lose?"….

….. Forty-six percent of Virginians disapproved of her job performance, while 47% approved, only four months into her term.

In contrast, predecessor Gov. Glenn Youngkin saw a 54-39 job approval at this point in his term, with the highest favorability going to Democrat Mark Warner – now Virginia’s senior senator — with a 78-20 rating….
