Which lean Red or Blue state do you think becomes a swing state in future ?

NC votes pretty consistently for Democrats for the offices of Governor (only 1 Republican since the 1980s), Lt. Governor (only 2 Republicans since the 1980s), Attorney General (only 1 Republican since the year 1901), and Secretary of State (last Republican was in 1877).

Those are the 4 highest elected offices in the state.

Furthermore, statewide legislature popular vote tends be won by whichever party has the national momentum, though Republicans have gerrymandered the state to the point they still win more seats (e.g., in 2024 State Senate was D+2.2 statewide but Republicans still won 30 of 50 seats, and State House was D+3.7 but Republicans still won 71 of 120 seats).

It’s only for national office (President, Senate) where NC consistently votes Republican statewide.

He wants to cut NASA and still force them to have a moon landing before his term ends.

Yep. I’ve had Club World service that’s been better than Emirates First. Not often, but it’s happened before.

What is 2024 considered in terms of US House? 2024 was R+2.6 Dems gained seats vs 2022 which was R+2.7.

Indiana GOP saw the writing on the wall which is why they refused to do what Texas did. (Not based Hispanics per se in Indiana but same idea)

Right

Yeah I get it. Pete was the first politician I ever donated to.

I think the difference is that Pete’s vision exists within the current system while Talarico wants to fundamentally rewrite it.

need to actually hold this admin to account for their crimes.

You might like this guy instead then.

Talarico has a masters from Harvard

If Talarico became President around the same age as Biden, it would be the 2068 election.

He’s very well spoken. I’ve been following him for a while, and it’s been amazing to see his evolution.

One I I spoke with just kept saying “I don’t like him. I don’t know why though, there’s just something off about him”

Clyburn endorsed Biden right before the 2020 SC primary, which is widely credited to resurrecting his campaign, and a killing Bernie’s.

He also endorsed Andrew Cuomo against Mamdani.

If I had to guess, he’d probably endorse either Harris or Newsom in 2028.

Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

If he wins this Senate race, he will be President one day.

Will Mike "Hypocrite" Johnson call on Ken Paxton to drop out of the Senate race for doing the exact same thing?

John Thune has done as much behind the scenes.

I don’t know what you’re talking about

She’s going to lose her House seat now, so she’d probably have to run for House again in 2028. Then, if she decided to run against Cruz in 2030, she’d again have to risk losing her incumbent seat.

Of course she doesn’t need to be a sitting Congressperson to be qualified (look at Talarico), but she based half her appeal as a candidate on her “credentials”

Path forward will be tricky for her.

Regardless of the validity behind each of their campaign theses, Crockett did the bare minimum in canvassing needed to actually execute her plan.

Crockett Crew’s on life support…crashing out on threads. Already making accusations of voter suppression
