All 99 Iowa county auditor offices are now open for in-person early voting. Bring your ID with you (for most that's a driver's license or non-operator ID). If you've moved since you last voted, bring proof of address as well. Listed document options here: www.bleedingheartland.com/2026/10/08/h...

I feel like the only appropriate response to every ratfucker & troll that's still shit-talking DEMs at this point is: VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS I don't think I'm gonna say anything else to any of them between now & November 3rd. It's all been said. That's all that's left. Nothing else matters now.

Last night a jury in Red Oak, Iowa acquitted Joey Norris of felony election misconduct. It's a travesty that he was ever charged, and the blame lies with AG Brenna Bird. I will have more to say about this failed political prosecution in a forthcoming post. www.3newsnow.com/southwest-io...

Not Guilty verdict in trial of Red Oak man charged with felony election misconduct

The state attorney general's office accused Joey Norris with felony election misconduct for hindering the process of counting absentee ballots in 2024. A Montgomery County jury found him not guilty

Please read this closely- my opponent WOULD ban cancer treatments, and sounds very much like the political operative he’s been for a decade.

No. You're all wrong. Trump was on his way to prison in 2024 when VOTERS threw that away. VOTERS had the ability to prevent all of this & THEY failed. Your alternative to not voting for Democrats is to enable Republicans to keep destroying everything. This isn't rocket science. IT'S AN EASY CHOICE!

Anyone telling you not to vote is NOT your friend, NOT your ally, and you should immediately and completely ignore them. If they're telling you to abstain from voting, to throw away your voice and your input into your own democracy, then you should tell them to shut up and stop listening to them.

Dude. Like seriously if this is how you think elections work just admit you're a fucking moron who is responsible for the mess we're in now. Votes are not "earned". VOTING IS A CIVIC DUTY. You cast your vote for best of the two options. You vote for the vulnerable, for the best outcome for ALL.

Both parties are not the same. I'm going to keep repeating it. Because Democrats, at every level of government, are making lives better. Republicans, at every level of government, are making lives poorer, sicker, and more dangerous.

Not defending their vote. However, she would've gotten confirmed without their votes. Folks need to start putting this anger where it belongs. It's why Republicans continue to skate & have no pressure, #they know people will blame Dems.

Just a reminder: Republicans could end all this nightmarish BS at any time. All it would take is a small handful of Republicans voting with Democrats to put a stop to Trump & all the destruction. That's it. 100% of Democrats voting couldn't stop it, but just a few Republicans joining them would.

I mean clearly no, right now, in 2026 and with a Democratic majority under a Trump Presidency in 2027 the "most important priority" is offering oversight in hopes of stopping the Trump crime wave. idk why I even need to say that.

If you are mad at Hakeem Jeffries because he declined to commit to holding a vote some time in the future on a piece of legislation that has not gone to committee or even yet been drafted, you are not mad at Hakeem Jeffries because of Hakeem Jeffries. You are mad at Hakeem Jeffries because of you.

If Democrats take back control of Congress and the White House, undoing the damage the Supreme Court has done to voting rights — and preventing them from doing it again — will be a top priority, Hakeem Jeffries said. Read more here: bit.ly/4wuEFRm #ProtectTheVote
