I'm running for the Senate in Maine with the most grassroots campaign you've ever seen.

Let's drop the drama, kick out the influence of money, and focus on what really matters in our federal law.

Help here: bond4.me/get-involved

Let's get some common sense back in politics.
BUT YOU ARE AN INDEPENDENT!?!??!?!!!

No problem! Maine has ranked choice voting.

Do you know how that works?

Ranked choice voting means we can listen to and support all the candidates, so please do!

Here they are...
Independent
@TiffanyBond
@Lady_VanHelsing

Green
@LisaForMaine

Democrat
@BeeKay4ME
@BetsySweetME
@SaraGideon
@RossforMaine

I'm running without accepting money...so how do you help?

Become a #5MinuteVolunteer!

Take 5 minutes a week to:

- look for social media related to the Maine Senate race, comment and suggest following

- RT/like campaign posts

- make your own posts
bond4.me/get-involved
Ask people directly to follow this account. To get an equivalent voice on Twitter, I need 500k followers (yikes!). You have done that with accounts like @DevinCow, you have the power to make this happen.

If you are media and reading this, maybe cover an unconventional campaign?
@DevinCow Don't expect this campaign to feel like others.

I'm a voter first and have made a purposeful decision to be very transparent with my personality instead of giving you a managed and sanitized experience.

When I vote I wish I knew who I was really getting, so I'm giving you that.
I'm just one of us who happens to dig federal law and hate money in politics.

Come for the rage at systemic failure and Susan Collins' waffling, stay for the #MaineRaising, #readthebill, and #momprobs.

It seems time to (yet again) explain ranked choice voting game theory in the context of toppling a well-established incumbent, so...

When you have a ranked choice primary, there is no benefit to piling on resources to a well-resourced front runner.

It's actually harmful.
What does help, is running the primary in as egalitarian a manner as possible.

It benefits the front-runner (and all candidates) to graciously say "please lift us all up and choose the best among us."

What? Why?

Not only will you be more likely to put up the best candidate BUT
You'll earn the trust, supporters, and volunteers of primary competitors.

Instead of being disenfranchised from an unfair race silencing their champion...you instead have someone who lost fair and square, but will jump in to help you with the next round.

You heard their voice.

Me: we have to fix this!

Them: the real problem is mental health

M: fine, we'll try it your way. Let's pass comprehensive access to mental healthcare for everyone.

T: oh, not *that* kind of mental health. I just want to call them crazy and not do anything.

M: 😐😡
T: it's not mental healthcare or gun owners...it's that crazy, bad people get guns

M: so more robust background checks with a mental health screen?

T: no, you are going to hurt GOOD ones

M: how do you tell good from bad then?

T: the bad ones shoot the wrong people

M: 😐😡
M: since you don't seem to know, let's collect data on gun crimes and try to figure it out?

T: no, that's invasive and wasteful spending

M: so we should...do nothing?

T: no, sell more guns! That's good for the economy!

M: 😐😡

Let's get 2020 started. I'll be posting Campaign Resolutions like #NewYearsResolution but how I'll Represent #NC13 in D.C.
1 - I am not accepting Corporate PAC donations like my Republican opponent. My vote is not for sale.
secure.actblue.com/donate/scott20…
2 - I will work to engage citizens to hold our Government accountable to the people. I'm not running to be a politician. I am elected to be a Public Servant. I work for the district not for the #donorclass. Our #workingclass families need representation in D.C.
3 - We live in #TwoAmericas. The #ExtremeRich & everybody else. Everybody else is having to work 2 or 3 jobs. We need to focus on improving #workingclass wages. I will support a $15 min raise. My Republican opponent voted NO on HR 582 - Raise the Wage Act

Take care of roots, not leafs

Focus on the process, not the outcome

The habits, thinking patterns, memes you host, connections you have, luck, all lead to the outcomes you see

If you want good outcomes, develop good roots

And make sure they are grounded in reality

There is no such thing as perfect.

For habits, missing a day is not an issue, as long as you get back on track.

It's okay to miss once, but never to miss twice.
Do the minimal effort, but don't break the habit.

A note is bad if the notes following it don't match.

The path you take is more important than what you do on the path you're on

Efficiency is doing things right.
Effectiveness is doing the right things.

You need both to be successful, but invest extra effort in exploring what you want to be doing, especially early on.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

I have kickstarted a habit of sending one thought each day, until I die.

The one I deem the most valuable.

Day 1:

The most important step is the start.

I will prove myself the power of consistency.

Tiny gains. Massive chains.

Ok to miss once, but never miss twice.
Day 2:
You don't achieve anything without standing on the shoulders of giants

99% of the work and value is created by the invisible and the faceless

Thank you: parents, teachers, friends, scientists, workers, warriors, ancestors, Earth, Sun

To live a happy life is to live a grateful life

We all are an unbroken chain of life

We are the survivors

Senate Democrats Prove They’re Unfit to Govern 

Kavanaugh hearings reveal why their symbol is the jackass.

spectator.org/senate-democra…
During the first two days of the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee demonstrated why their party lost control of Congress, and that they still can’t be trusted with a majority in either house.
In addition to interrupting proceedings countless times on frivolous grounds and engaging in outrageous demagoguery, they openly encouraged demonstrators to disrupt the hearings with such disgusting behavior that Kavanaugh’s wife was forced to lead his children out of the room.
