"Something positive in our politics is happening in Texas! This weekend I had the opportunity to visit with the amazing Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Gina Hinijosa. She did an amazing job at her rally in Houston!
Texas is big and just in Houston you can drive from one side to the other for an hour and some change and still be in Houston. That saying, high gas and diesel prices are impacting everything.
The polls have Gina and Senate candidate, James Talarico up. This weekend the energy on the ground felt like Virginia last year. And you know what happened here!
People are frustrated with the current direction of our country and they are willing to give Democrats in Texas a chance again!" - VA Speaker Don Scott

In one sense (only), gotta agree that it's kinda too bad they're not debating. Why? Because it would be super fun to watch @markwarner.bsky.social absolutely thrash this far-right-extremist/MAGA nutjob on live TV! LOL bluevirginia.us/2026/10/sund...
"Senate Adjournment Shows Mark Warner Lied to Avoid Debates

McLean, VA – Three October debates proposed between US Senator Mark Warner and Republican Bert Mizusawa were accepted by Mizusawa in addition to a September one. Mark Warner said the Senate schedule did not permit his participation in debates.

We now know that was a lie.

The US Senate adjourned September 30th until November, leaving Warner's calendar completely free for the month of October. The Senate calendar has shown that for months, but now that it is official, the media should press Warner to debate.

"We have an entire month remaining in the campaign, so we expect Mark Warner to debate and ask all organizations that cancelled their debates to reconsider now that we know Warner's excuse was made up," said Mizusawa. "We are ready."

The AARP planned a debate on October 7th, and the League of Women Voters scheduled one in October as well.

The University of Lynchburg was seeking a date in late October that Warner would accept. Now that the Senate will not meet again until after the election, will Warner still say he's "too busy."

"The press must find out why Warner won't debate since his previous excuses don't meet the honesty test," added Mizusawa."
