"Strikingly, there were more districts where the candidates prevailed by a fortress margin of 40 to 50 percentage points (55 of them) than districts where the outcomes were decided by five or fewer points (37)." Don't forget this is true at the county level also.

Alabama is blessed with fantastic political writers. @joshmoonal.bsky.social is one of the best. He also has a podcast, @alpoliticsthisweek.com, he hosts with David Person. You should give it a listen.

ICYMI, Alabama's own made it on Rachel Maddow (@maddow.bsky.social) last night. Never a good sign for Alabama.🙄 "Two weeks after Election Day, Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama assured the public that Trump wouldn’t choose “a criminal” for a governmental position. About a week later..."
