This is very smart. Most campaigns would have put the poll out to raise money, but they understood the value of staying off the radar a little longer.
Semafor: Annie Andrews knew she was winning in October — but kept the poll secret On Oct. 5, the Andrews campaign received a poll showing her with a 3-point lead over Graham. But the Democrat’s campaign decided against publicly releasing the poll — or any subsequent internal poll — showing Andrews with a lead over Graham, wary of drawing too much attention from national Republicans and jeopardizing a peak at the right time, according to Chas Goldman, a strategist for Andrews. semafor.com/article/11/04/20…

A big part of winning modern campaigns is managing attention, and no one did it better this cycle than @ZackCarroll and @chas_goldman in South Carolina. semafor.com/article/11/04/20…

.@BrextonIsaacs joined @AnnieAndrewsMD's campaign at the most important time when few others believed the possibility of a path. There's a lot to unpack and a lot of talent to be recognized here, but this win was possible because he joined this team.
South Carolina, you have shown the nation — in an era of partisan divides, of vitriol and namecalling, in a politics dominated by billionaires, special interests, and insiders in Washington — that we will not bow down. We will not back down. And we will chart our own course.

Larry Kudlow is correct. We were too successful the first year of the Trump administration.

Something very wealthy people often fail to understand -- because they are used to money solving all their problems -- is that in politics, message/environment > money
Not a good night for Elon Musk!

Since 1990, only five Senate seats that have been won by double digits by the opposing party in the state's most recent presidential have flipped. We met that tonight alone (and still might beat it!)

Want a sense of how bad things are going for Florida Rs? Mario Diaz-Balart, in a seat that zero Dems thought they could flip, is down by a point with 82pct of the vote in.

My friend @MiryamLipper and the Ossoff team have run a hell of a race — disciplined but always on their front foot. They’ve earned all the 👏 coming their way tonight.

Turnout by Age and Race so far A really stunning stat so far. Black voters 18-24 have higher turnout their whites under 34. In 2024, Black youth has the worse turnout % of any race/age demographic And election day historically has a decent Black share #flapol

South Carolina is my home & @AnnieAndrewsMD is not only a client but a friend. I’m usually the words guy, but wow, final EV numbers just dropped. The black vote surged over the wknd and is currently 29.6% of the electorate. An astounding number. #SCSEN

Abrams on Haley Stevens: She used black people as a prop in order to pursue an agenda of sore loserness. And having been someone who has not won everything, I thought it is deeply inappropriate to use anyone else to justify your behavior and to justify your dismay, She said he told her not to come to something. I've been asked not to come to things before. That doesn't mean that I then disavow my values
