https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-political-environment-might-be-improving-for-democrats/? Dems may hold the Senate thanks to Georgia and Pennsylvanian voters picking Trumpers as their candidates.
The Libertarian candidates aren't going to pull 3% in Georgia. My guess is many responding to the poll that way won't vote, but most of those who do vote will vote GOP.
Looks like the de facto Dem nomonee to challenge Johnson is Mandela Barns. https://www.wispolitics.com/2022/godlewski-dropping-u-s-senate-bid-clearing-dem-field-for-barnes/ The biggest challenger was Godlewski, who my cousin-in-laws in the State House, promoted. I will say, Barns has a good ground game as far as I have seen. At least around Milwaukee, there are signs for him everywhere.
This is truly embarrassing......Those two clowns ...... To recap, Trump couldn’t decide whether to endorse Eric Greitens or Eric Schmitt in the Missouri Senate race, so he just endorses “ERIC” the night before the election. Now both are graciously thanking him for his sincere support. pic.twitter.com/voE4Z3myOk— Natalie Allison (@natalie_allison) August 1, 2022
"ERIC" is the Educational Resource Information Center https://eric.ed.gov/ I do not, not for a second, nor under any condition, believe Trump endorsed ERIC
Joke aside, the Dems seem to have some serious winds in their back. If the IRA passes, that will be additional boost as well. Drumbeat of solid for Dems generic ballot polls getting so strong even RCP is having a hard time holding the line.— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) August 2, 2022
PSA were talking about this yesterday Amazing seeing Dems were down 2 on the generic ballot until recently. Now a decent chance to hold the senate. House is tough, but if gas prices continue to fall and Trump announces, who knows?
The Kansas thunderbolt is a serious warning for the GOP. I predicted months ago that the Dobbs decision may ignite a massive backlash in November. I stand by it.
Pete Meijer lost vs the Trump endorsed nut job in Mi-3. I am not going to be upset about this since the GOP candidate is so far right, it will guarantee a pick up for the Dems in this Biden+8 district. I've seen enough: Trump-endorsed John Gibbs (R) defeats pro-impeachment Rep. Peter Meijer (R) in the #MI03 GOP primary and will face Hillary Scholten (D) in November. Rating change: @CookPolitical will be moving #MI03 from Toss Up to Lean D.— Dave Wasserman (@Redistrict) August 3, 2022
I wonder what our country would look like if people who are now shocked into action by this thunderbolt had a little bit of foresight. I think it might have been a pretty cool place.
This hat is an understatement. Still it is much easier to beat a Qanon/Maga candidate in a D+8 than Peter Meijer who has massive money and name recognition.
No doubt, this dude is certified nuts.....Not to mention that reading and grammar are massive challenges for him....lol Everybody are mentally crazy. But some people handle it better than others.” — Georgia U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker (R), at a town hall meeting yesterday.
As I understand it, gerrymandering + population concentration means Dems +3 in the generic poll equates to a 50-50 chance to control the House. +7 is obviously great news.
The freakout over Meijer is funny considering that he voted against the J6 Committee. Either way, he's part of a wealthy family, he'll be fine in his post-politics life.
Here we go....That is the way it should be done. Pummel those nut jobs with their own extremist views. Just hours after Blake Masters (R) won the Republican U.S. Senate nomination in Arizona, Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) released a new ad targeting his views on abortion rights as “too dangerous for Arizona.”
Look at this clown. This Meijer dude is a hard core republican who voted in lockstep with the GOP on everything from the J6 committee to Abortion. Because he voted once to impeach Trump, some are making him a hero. He is garbage who happened to do one thing right....******** him. Rep. Peter Meijer (R-MI) introduced John Gibbs (R), who defeated him in a very contentious primary this week, at a Republican unity event.
TIL that the founder of Meijer's (grocery store chain and this guy's great grandfather) was a anarchist and a socialist.
Uh oh........ That would be fantastic! S, Ohio – (Aug. 4 2022) – A new poll from Center Street PAC, a non-partisan political action committee, shows Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) leads Republican J.D. Vance 49% to 38%, among Likely Voters, with 12% undecided. The numbers continue the upward trend in support for Ryan, whose lead over Vance among Likely Voters widened by 8 points, since a July 2022 poll. Another significant development shows Ohio Democrats are more motivated to vote in 2022 than Republicans, 62% to 57%.While Republicans still have more motivated voters in the absolute, the enthusiasm advantage has evaporated from +12% in May to +3% in August. “These results suggest two things: Ryan’s early jump in investment has significantly improved his standing with Ohio voters,” said Center Street Chief Analytics Officer Dr. Kurt Jetta. https://centerstreetpac.com...
