David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Unironically, Kacey Musgraves openly endorsing Talarico has way more signal than any Marist poll imo. Way higher stakes for a Texas country star to go out on a limb and risk her livelihood. 0130
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 13/10/2026Have a pet theory that low info voters are fueled with pure anti-incumbent vitriol, and blue states will legitimately be closer than the generic ballot suggests (because D's eat some of that anti-incumbency heuristic), but red states will swing way harder than anyone believes possible. 1192
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I don't know that there's enough paper production and printer capacity to support a shift back to society wide print based news (especially during wartime). A lot of the printing presses from 30 years ago got straight up scrapped 030

David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Idk, even in Canada this confusion definitely exists. There's a party running in the Vancouver municipal elections as the "Vancouver Liberals" and I've had friends tell me their voting them to support Carney. 000
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I've been seeing ads for Hinson on NFL broadcasts on Canadian cable channels. Nothing for Paxton tho 040

David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 01/10/2026And if the median voter is just using a "vote the bums out because gas costs too much" then the incumbent disadvantage in blue states falls on Ds 030
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 01/10/2026National postal services have to be the answer to communication technologies with the smallest societal disruption. 000
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 27/09/2026They still do! If you read their sporting press, they will completely seriously, and unironically refer to any Russian athlete from outside Moscow or St. petersburg as "provincial" 0161
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Biden kept Trump's tariffs and added tariffs on our lumber! 031
David 🇨🇦 @drod425.bsky.social · 16/09/2026It also comes off better from a local dude, compared to a national out-of-state presidential candidate. 030
