There are 7,383 State Legislative seats.

Flipping .67% of them (roughly 50) would win us chambers in TX, NC, IA, MN, MI, AZ and more.

So for the next 50 days I'll be highlighting candidates and giving them each $5 to help raise awareness for their campaigns.

🚨THE TOP 10 SENATE RACES OF 2024🚨

The Senate map is brutal for us this year.

Ds currently sit at 51-49 with a guaranteed loss in WV.

So the strategy of keeping our majority runs through a flawless defense of every other D seat, and hopefully flipping two tough GOP seats. Image
Race: Montana (#MTSen)

Democrat: Jon Tester (@jontester)

Flip/Hold: Hold

Facts: If Tester can put together a coalition (Ds, Rs, Is, Indigenous, environmentalists), he can win against his scandal-plagued opponent. Our toughest race this year.

@jontester Race: Ohio Senate (#OHSen)

Democrat: Sherrod Brown (@SherrodBrown)

Flip/Hold: Hold

Facts: Another tough race, but Sherrod has been blessed with a weak opponent (a familiar theme this year), and with our help he'll have what it takes to win.

🚨NORTH CAROLINA EXTREME GOP STATEWIDE CANDIDATE THREAD🚨

I can’t think of any state that has a statewide Republican ticket as weird and dangerous as North Carolina.

And Democrats have the chance to defeat them all.

Let’s review.
newsobserver.com/opinion/articl…
Republican - Mark Robinson

Election - Governor (#NCGov)

Democratic opponent - Josh Stein (@JoshStein_)

Robinson is a Holocaust-denying, Hitler-quoting, LGBTQ-hating bigot who says that “some people need to be killed” and doesn’t want women to vote.

vanityfair.com/news/mark-robi…
@JoshStein_ Republican - Dan Bishop

Election - Attorney General (#NCAG)

Democratic opponent - Jeff Jackson (@JeffJacksonNC)

Bishop designed NC’s anti-LGBTQ ‘bathroom bill’, which cost NC $3.7B in revenue, and he donated to Gab, a white supremacist social network.

🚨PENNSYLVANIA STATE LEGISLATURE THREAD🚨

Stopping Trump means more than just winning the Electoral College Vote.

It also means looking at the entire chess board and seeing where we can guard against GOP interference.

Our best opportunity to do so:

The PA State Legislature. Image
PA currently has a 🔴 State Senate and a 🔵 State House.

Key: Unlike most states, PA’s State Legislature is sworn in on DECEMBER 1ST...BEFORE their electors meet.

If Dems win full control of the PA Legislature on 11/5, we remove a major lever of power the GOP has to interfere.
One of our main goals in PA is to FLIP the State Senate and HOLD the State House.

In the PA Senate, the GOP leads 28-22. Dems need to flip 3 seats to win the chamber.

In the PA House, Dems narrowly lead 102-101, so we need to defend our seats and flip others to pad our numbers.

Time for a tutorial in right-wing media propaganda.

I came across this local print edition of the Epoch Times delivered to the mailbox of someone I know.

It has the look and feel of a standard local paper, w/ a front page featuring local stories.

But let’s look closer… Image
First let’s zoom in on the top of the front page.

The paper slyly promotes the Epoch Times video website featuring a documentary about “The Real Story of January 6” and a story about “Unusual Blood-clotting” (anti-vax conspiracy theories).

But that’s just the start… Image
Remember that Page 1 lures in the reader with the promise of local news coverage, with a small-print hint about the paper’s true intent.

But Page 2 is dives in with snippets and quotes and brief items that have a distinct conservative theme. Image

We’ve now had *2* major accusations against Biden that have been refuted:

1. Robert Hur’s accusation about Biden’s cognition, which was belied by his own words in the transcript.

2. The GOP’s accusation of Biden taking bribes, which fell apart when their witness was indicted.
Republicans have relied heavily on both of these false narratives, and both have crumbled away.

Impeachment is going nowhere and Biden’s SOTU killed their ‘Sleepy Joe’ approach.

That’s a big problem for the GOP.

Why? Two reasons.
1. Now the GOP needS to formulate new lines of attack. It wont be easy.

2. Those two false Biden narratives were supposed ‘cancel out’ the *accurate* liabilities for Trump: his obvious cognitive decline and his blatant corruption. That strategy is gone now.

I really encourage everyone to read this conversation with @SimonWDC (posted by @atrupar without a paywall; thank you Aaron!).

There are some great electoral and political insights that cut through many of the BS media narratives that we are being fed.

I love this part.

Many of us are still so traumatized by 2016 that we've created this mythology around Trump and his abilities.

But the data points to 2016 having been - dare I say - a fluke.

Don't get me wrong, a fluke could happen again.

But not if we put in the hard work. Image
I see this trauma every day in my conversations with like-minded friends and family.

I see the anxiety, I see the fear, I see the pessimism.

It's as though they are stuck in '16, and the subsequent seven years of elections never happened.

It's a mindset we have to break.
