2022 #Midterms Simulation: #ArtoftheGerrymander
A Republican House win will be built on gerrymanders (TX/GA/FL/TN/LA, etc.)
To illustrate the need for fair maps, I'm calculating the results using the 2022 votes, but if every state had a Democratic gerrymander. #ElectionTwitter

Methodology:
Iโll apply the difference in Presidential margin to the House result. Thanks @davesredist @mikemathieu @vest_team + @DKElections @PoliticsWolf
Keen to see how my maps perform over the decade; tried to comply with state law if partisan intent were allowed to stand.

There's the spending boom I was waiting for...the NRCC drops $19.27 million on 31 House races, pulling ahead of its 2020 pace and adding the Biden +20% #PA12 to the board as targeted seat #64, backing Mike Doyle for retiring 14-term Dem Mike Doyle's seat.
The @NRCC finally starts to unload its war chest in earnest, dropping $14 million in 23 races.
It has now spent ~$43.9 million in 28 races (vs the DCCC's $76.7 million in 42 races)

Difference between a Republican & Democrat candidate
Iโm Brad Pfaff, the Democratic nominee for #WI03.
We may have the most out of touch and extreme Republican opponents out here in western Wisconsin. Letโs review some of his greatest hits and letโs stop in together in November. ๐งต

Letโs start with the fact heโs one of five Republicans running for Congress who was at the Capitol on January 6th and he used campaign funds to pay for his trip. Derrick, to this day, still denies attending the insurrectionโฆbut we have photo evidence.
It gets worse. Did you know he was fined and is on probation for taking a fully-loaded gun through airport security, with one round in the chamber?

Big shakeup in DCCC's House battlefield this AM. The committee named 12 challengers to its "Red to Blue" program, added 3 members to its "Frontline" program, added 8 new GOP/Dem districts to its "In Play" list, and removed 6 GOP-held districts from its target list.

13th term Wisconsin Democratic Rep. Ron Kind's retirement from Congress is front page news in his #WI03 district this morning.
Kind D-WI:"Representing the people at home has been the honor of my life,but I never intended it to be the honor of my entire life. For 26yrs,Iโve flown to & from Washington,DC & traveled the 18 counties of the most beautiful Congressional District in the Nation almost every wk."
Kind D-WI: "But 26 years is enough--itโs time for me to step back. My wife, Tawni, and I are looking forward to entering the next chapter of our lives."
This is a decent test of whether voters in a Trump/Dem district (#WI03) are actually moved by stories about 1/6 or react with a big yawn (FWIW, Van Orden has called violence at the Capitol "absolutely horrific"). thedailybeast.com/gop-candidate-โฆ
The uncomfortable reality for Dems is that the pro- democratic norms arguments that are the most compelling to the anti-Trump base tend to be the *least* effective messages w/ persuadable/Trump voters.
What do they care about? Pre-existing conditions, stimulus checks, etc.

If Dems make "but the GQP wants to end democracy!" the centerpiece of the race in #WI03, I'd like to prematurely congratulate them on:
1) feeling proud they "stood up for what's right"
2) losing a seat critical to the House majority

Speaker's election underway. Conducted aloud on House floor, alphabetically by member-elect surname.
Winner needs majority of members-elect voting for a candidate by surname. Can win with fewer than 218.
Pelosi, McCarthy formally nominated, but members-elect can vote for anyone

Blue Dog Rep. Jim Cooper (D-TN) voted for Pelosi for speaker for the 1st time since 2009.
Cooper voted "present" in 2019 and for Tim Ryan in 2017, Colin Powell in both 2015 elections and in 2013, and Heath Shuler in 2011. #tn05

Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO), who voted for Tammy Duckworth for speaker as a freshman in 2019, voted for Pelosi after an easy re-election win in #co06
Based on a variety of number-crunching sources, esp. @DKElections, it looks like there were at most 16 districts out of 435 that split their tickets between president/House in '20 - likely an all-time low.
For perspective, there were 83 such districts in '08 and 35 in '16.

Correction to first tweet: at most 17, if Brindisi (D) prevails in #NY22. Would still be less than half of the 35 in 2016.
It's Labor Day 2020 and both the Democratic and Republican Vice Presidential candidates will be campaigning in person today in Wisconsin during COVID-19 pandemic.
Vice President Mike Pence will deliver his Labor Day campaign address today at Dairyland Power Cooperative in La Crosse, WI on jobs, the workforce and the economy. c-span.org/video/?475537-โฆ @cspan
Vice presidential candidate Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) campaigns in Milwaukee and participates in a roundtable with workers and business leaders on this Labor Day. c-span.org/video/?475502-โฆ @cspan
Connecticut, Minnesota, Vermont, and Wisconsin are holding Congressional primaries today and Georgia is holding primary runoff elections for several House seats.
In Connecticut, Democrats hold all 5 House seats and none are facing primary challengers. Republicans will challenge Democrats this fall in all 5 seats with 2 primaries in 1st and 2nd Districts held today. GOP winners will face Reps. Larson and Courtney respectively in November.
In Minnesota, #MNSen primary elections are being held today. 1st term Democratic Senator Tina Smith face four DFL primary challengers and 5 Republican candidates including former Rep. Jason Lewis who was endorsed by President Trump are running to be their party's nominee.
Time for super pacs to start running ads in these districts letting voters know if these people vote for impeachment, they get voted out. Period.
We're gonna make these people famous today
From now until Wednesday, it's time to put pressure on these Dems:
You vote with AOC and impeachment, and you're toast. She's in New York City and doesn't give a shit you're in a red district.
Voting for censure is your only way out
