What’s wild is that this applies to so many states now that it took me a second to remember where Jason lives
It hasn't quite sunk in that we're not going to have a governor who calls public schools woke indoctrination factories anymore.

when he signed the civil rights act, lbj famously told his press secretary bill moyers “we may have lost the south for your lifetime—and mine” and my brother pointed out bill moyers died last year.

Only the Judiciary Committee nerds will truly appreciate the fact that Scott Colom is only a Senate candidate because Cindy Hyde-Smith did not return a blue slip on his District Court nomination.

Been in this business in this state for way too long. Don’t even know how to process all of this. But anyways, time to get to work.

Democrats are poised to win back the Senate — sending a Methodist pastor, a Presbyterian seminarian, a Muslim doctor, and a Catholic Native American to Washington while reelecting a Jewish Southerner in Georgia. This is America at its best.

Drove by a house with yard signs for @WarrenDavidson Jill Cole and @amyactonoh. So this is anyone’s race with less than 48 hours until polls close.

Getting dressed to go to a 1940s themed murder mystery dinner. Wife is in a satin dress, gloves, and hair all done up. I’m literally wearing exactly what I wear to work, plus a fedora. And now I want to wear a fedora to work. This is the life of a suburban dad.

some 22-year-old field organizer in Chicago has robert prevost marked as “not home” in MiniVAN and I think that’s beautiful
Pope Leo XIV has become the first-ever Pope to vote in a U.S. election. (via AP) He submitted a Chicago mail-in ballot for the 2026 midterms.

"Jeep people built Ohio. Jet people like Vivek Ramaswamy fly right over it" hits right at the haves vs. have-nots populism that's been particularly strong with rural voters this year. Acton's latest ad:
#OHPol: "Amy Acton is from Youngstown. Spent her entire career helping people. Vivek? He peddled a drug for Alzheimer's patients that didn't work. Now he's a billionaire ... Jeep people built Ohio. Jet people like Vivek Ramaswamy fly right over it." Ohioans for Lower Costs is up with this new #OHGov ad.

There may still be time if Mike Pence has the courage to do what’s right
My biggest regret leading up to Election Day is it looks like I won't have time to do a feature story on how #OHgov and #OHSen is a battle between Bexley (Acton/Brown) and Upper Arlington (Ramaswamy/Husted)
