I had no idea until today that Tom Perriello nearly survived *that* midterm. Good God.

Deleting because I don't want to spread (any more) negativity. Will simply wait for November

Remembering this hilarious set of polling results from "Deciding to Win," a project by a bunch of Obama and Clinton guys to move the party to the right. Claims that Medicare for All is unpopular and that Medicaid Expansion is only +8 nationally even though it won in Idaho and South Dakota

Ngl, as much of a doomer as I am, I find the whole "backlash to gas prices being high is why we will never be able to decarbonize" a rather baffling line of argumentation

I think a lot of economic malaise under Trump, which preceded the iran war and even the tariffs, is just because Trump was supposed to bring us back to the 2000-2020 era of consistently low inflation that people got used to. Fed was a victim of its own success here

I think if you told me 5 years ago that I would still have never had a gf or find permanent employment I would've redacted myself

Idk why I keep seeing people on here use the phrase "gen alpha voters" in the context of the 2026 midterms, do people not know the oldest members of gen alpha turned 13 this year?

Oh OK so it is a real race. This might get the undecided voters to come home. To who though is the question

The real impasta @therealimpasta.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

Yeah like this might work. I wish it wouldn't but the 5k check promise could easily swing the midterms towards republicans

It's getting harder and harder to write this off tbh

Oh cmon man you can't possibly believe this is true

Republican gubernatorial nominee Byron Donalds and his running mate, State Sen. Brian Avila, attended a general election kickoff event at the Miami-Dade GOP headquarters on Saturday.

“What’s at stake is the future of Florida,” said Donalds. “We’ve become the example to the other 49 states. We are the best state in America. Everyone knows that.”

I remember a lot of people on here were issuing stern warnings that "calling talarico gay and soy is going to work in Texas, sorry" and have said nothing about the fact that it's not working lol

Maybe I'm a doomer but I still think the most likely TX-Sen outcome is Paxton +2. He's a worse candidate than Cruz for so many reasons but like a million people have moved to Texas since 2018 explicitly to live a right-wing lifestyle. Hope I'm wrong but that's how I see it

Minimum wage hikes are still really popular with the voting public though

I am just utterly hopeless as a human being, unfortunately.

I don't think this ends up mattering much, fwiw.

I'm deleting any posts that may be suggestive of Florida optimism. State is cooked. Sorry.

Dems actually are outvoting Rs in Miami-Dade, and Moody is losing a sizeable chunk of Dade on the R side to randos. Hmmm

It's astounding how bad Trump's approval is and also how nobody seems to treat it like it's as bad as it is

Bad start for Abdul, no sugar-coating it. He needs to hammer Rogers on his support for the Iran war

Senate seat is more important than the governorship of a state where the legislature is not even a lock for Dems btw

OK please disregard, this analysis was made under the assumption that Madison was truly not all the way in yet.

I was very nice to Stevens supporters after the primary, but I'm sorry, we are GOING to be making fun of anyone who supported the entity known as "Angie Craig".

Feel like making this entire election about Israel helps Abdul more than it hurts

Why did Andy Ogles lose? All of his (repulsive) views are things most republicans agree with

The gen z male loser epidemic is super real, sad to say. I am part of it, and I at least have a job (for now)!

Jesus christ everyone I know the RFK MAHA moms are malicious idiots, you don't need to tell me that. It genuinely is for the best that the 2024 election took them out of the coalition, I'm just explaining what AOC's calculation here is. Likely to work? IDK. Probably not

Lol no way, this just makes me doubt the talarico +3 result's accuracy

Graham Platner is a good example of why I don't trust the wholesome millennial male chungus masculinity that people who hate on zoomers love to invoke. Like sorry guys it's actually not inherently virtuous to have a ton of sex with women

Yep. This is why I will never ask a woman out.

Anyone remember how many people acted scandalized by Rashida Tlaib questioning whether Antony Blinken was going to be impartial on Israel-Palestine?

Look, regardless of the possibility of Medicare for All becoming law in the next decade (probably low), I support Democrats running on it because it signifies a willingness to directly confront health insurance companies.

The length outlets will go to spin Trump's approval as being somehow good or not that bad is just insane. "Stable over the last month" and it's 38% lol

"President Trump’s approval rating for his handling of the economy remains low, with just 33 percent of voters approving in a recent Washington Post-Ipsos poll. The survey also showed a small but growing share of Republicans who disapprove of his handling of the economy. Mr. Trump’s overall job approval rating has remained largely stable over the last month, though few select pollsters have conducted national polls in that timeframe."
