📣2018 NORTH CAROLINA STATE THREAD📣

Of all the 2018 state-level elections, NC’s may be the MOST IMPORTANT.

The GOP has taken over the state with naked power grabs and voter suppression tactics.

#TakeItBack!

If you have any friends/family/followers in NC, spread this thread.
In NC, Dems currently hold a 4-3 advantage on the State Supreme Court. 1 seat is up for election.

DEMOCRAT ANITA EARLS (@earls4justice) MUST WIN THIS SEAT.

She faces 2 GOPers after a power grab by the NC GOP backfired. It’s a complicated story. Your vote is not.

Elect Anita.
There are 6 constitutional amendments on the NC ballot, all put there by the GOP in an attempt to grab power, enrich the 1%, assault voting rights, and stoke right-wing turnout.

VOTE “AGAINST” EVERY CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT!

The NC Court of Appeals is 10-5 in favor of the GOP.

Democrats can cut that to an 8/7 advantage this year.
Here are the Democratic Candidates who need your vote:
Allegra Collins (@CollinsAllegra)
John Arrowood (incumbent) (@JudgeArrowood)
Toby Hampson (@TobyHampson4NC)
The chances of Dems taking back both NC State Legislative bodies are small.

The bigger priority is the need to flip enough seats to strip the GOP of its supermajorities.

That means flipping *4* seats in the NC House and *6* seats in the NC Senate.

#NC09 THREAD

I have questions.

Evidence shows that not only was there massive election fraud happening in Bladen and Robeson Counties, North Carolina…but it also indicates that it's been going on for years.

We now know that this is NOT just limited to Leslie McCrae Dowless.
So WHO ELSE knew what…and when?

Is it possible that EVERY politician representing these counties was unaware of this activity that seems to have SOLELY benefited the GOP?

Was everyone completely oblivious?

I think It's time for the following people to answer a few questions.
Republican William Brisson
District: North Carolina State House 22
Includes: Bladen County
First elected: 2006
Note: Brisson was a Democrat until October 25, 2017...when he switched parties to join the GOP.

📣2018 FLORIDA STATE SENATE THREAD📣

Democrats in Florida have 2 chances to make history in 2018:

1. By electing @andrewgillum to #FLGov.

2. By taking the FL State Senate back after *24* years.

If you know of ANYONE in Florida, or have ANY Floridian followers, please share!
The Florida State Senate is made up of 40 seats.

22 seats are currently held by Republicans, 16 are held by Democrats, and 2 are vacant.

Democrats need a net gain of +5 seats in order to take the chamber.
Florida State Senate elections are staggered, so only 22 of the 40 seats are up for grabs in 2018.

Gaining 5 seats is tough, but the numbers prove it’s doable.

Please spread the word about these Democratic contenders!

📣NEW JERSEY HOUSE DEMOCRATIC CONTENDERS THREAD📣

Few states give us a greater % of potential red-to-blue flips then The Garden State.

There are currently 5 GOP-held House seats in NJ, AND 100% OF THEM ARE FLIPPABLE.

If we take all 5, we can take the House!

Spread the word!
In #NJ02 Democrat Jeff Van Drew (@VanDrewForNJ) is running to FLIP this open-GOP seat. His opponent is the aptly named, and openly bigoted, Seth Grossman (seriously…Google him). Jeff is a dentist, a state senator, and a small business owner who will fight for ALL New Jerseyans.
In #NJ03 Democrat Andy Kim (@AndyKimNJ) is running to FLIP this seat held by Tom MacArthur. Andy served in the Obama Administration on counter-terrorism and national security matters, and will actually work to protect his constituents’ healthcare, unlike Rep. MacArthur.

The Cosmic Movement's penetration of Indian Freedom Struggle, Politics, Education & Religion.

This thread focuses on advanced threat perception from this group. Although this is a vast network covering many areas we concentrate here on key players driving it forward.
This guy is Max Theon original name Louis-Maximilian Bimstein. He founded the Cosmic Movement. As we will see each and every member of this network prefers to hide their original name, identity and history.
Many prominent people were involved with this Cosmic Movement as we will see. One of them was Tomáš Masaryk (who became the first President of Czechoslovakia) also the Princess of Rohan in Vienna and many others. However this group was actually a spin-off of the OTO.

(Thread) Protect and Promote the Vote

Here’s what I learned in 2016 and 2018 as a volunteer lawyer monitoring voting.

In CA, in the late 1980s through mid 1990s (when California was transitioning from a red state to a blue state) CA experienced a lot of voter suppression.
1/ Surprise! Suppression and incidents happened in minority communities in Republican-controlled areas.

A few dedicated lawyers formed an organization, became (or already were) experts in California election law, and started monitoring polling places & vote tabulation.
2/ They established a hotline. They train the volunteers. They work like crazy.

Did you hear about any voter suppression in California? Nope. The problems this year were individualized. Nothing systemic.

Thread: 2018 election most important midterms for voting rights in my lifetime. Election could be tainted by voter suppression or historic opportunity to expand voting rights for millions of people. Here's what's at stake npr.org/2018/10/23/659…
24 states have passed new restrictions on voting since 2010, such as strict voter ID laws, cutting early voting, making it harder to register to vote. These could swing key races [map via @BrennanCenter] nytimes.com/2018/10/27/opi…
The number of voters who could be disenfranchised by GOP voter suppression is larger than margin of close elections in key states like GA, ND, FL, KS & WI nyti.ms/2OagqmE

THREAD: @chicagovotes Twitter Town Hall!

I’m happy to support @ChicagoVotes, an organization that works to increase voter turnout of young people in Chicago.

Today I’ll answer your questions about voting and civics in this thread.
1/ Q from @casijesse: From your perspective, can you describe the state of democracy in the US today?
2/ A: Some of the pillars of our democratic system are under attack. States have engaged in voter suppression efforts, there is a war on the free press, and Congress isn’t doing its job. That’s why we need more people to vote. Non-voters outnumbered Trump voters in 2016.
