I’m hopping on a plane to DC tomorrow for freshmen orientation tomorrow - so bonkers, it’s all happening! Excited to get to work for us. Between now and January you’ll still see me working at the restaurant in Eau Claire. I got debt and bills to pay! So proud to be a voice to embolden the working class and reclaim rural power in Congress.

Bye, bye Virginia Foxx the horrible woman who claimed that the murder and torture of gay college student Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyoming in 1998 was a hoax and not a hate crime.
I do not forgive you ma’am.

Change starts at the local level. For the past few years, the Florida Democratic Party’s #TakeBackLocal program has helped build Democratic power where it shapes daily life, from school boards to city commissions.
On Tuesday, we added seven more wins. Across Florida, voters elected Democratic leaders ready to work hard and give working families a fair shake.
Together, we will build power from the ground up.
ALT A promotional graphic with the headline "FLORIDA DEMOCRATS' TAKE BACK LOCAL PROGRAM ADDS SEVEN MORE WINS." It features headshots of seven individuals, each with their role and district specified: Kimberly Coward, Flo Entler, Debbie Jordan, Karen Perez, Hunter Miller, Christina Romelus, and Daniela Simic. The graphic highlights two "Seat Flipped!" labels next to Kimberly Coward and Christina Romelus.
This is why they lost.
Abdul El-Sayed is now saying he won’t work with Democrats & is starting his own party.
He ran as a Democrat, used the primary process, & accepted Democratic support to get elected. Now that he has the office, he’s walking away from the party that put him there.
He needed the Democratic machine to win he no longer needs it to hold power
You can’t make this up

Miami-Dade County officially flipped blue for the first time since the 2020 general elections. While Republicans won the statewide races for governor and U.S. Senate, voters in majority-Black and majority-white neighborhoods across Miami-Dade propelled wins within the county for Democratic candidates David Jolly and Angie Nixon. 1/

This is a big deal in Polk County FL:

Damn right. I wish I had been able to get one of those @AngieNixon signs. We tried. I want to put some up in our windows for the next two years. Lol
Astonishing. Stuff like this should be being talked about more instead of just saying Florida is still solidly red. Clearly we are NOT still solidly red. That should be the big take away.
When David Jolly lost #FLGOV by 1.3%, he did so in an electorate that was GOP +8.7%
County by county, Jolly far outperformed the party makeup of the votes cast, indicating he won independents big: and some Republicans
The panhandle, still full of white rural "dixiecrats" was a different story. However, every major population center saw big Jolly over-performances #flapol

Lawyers for Democrat Scott Colom are warning election officials across Mississippi that Republicans' demand to segregate affidavit ballots from other ballots “will violate Mississippi voters’ rights and Mississippi election law.”

CNN: We can project that Democrat Jessica Killin will win Colorado's fifth congressional district, defeating Republican Jeff Crank. This victory marks the first time that Colorado Springs based district has elected a Democrat since it was created in 1972.
