With a whopping 63% of people over 25 having at least a bachelor's degree, Mississippi Senate District 25 is the most educated senate district in the state. Though it remains solidly Republican for now, it has seen the same leftward drift.
The religiosity of southern college educated whites is what will keep them more Republican than their northern counterparts. While rural northern whites are starting to vote like they do in the south, it will take some time before he reverse happens.
HD-49 is partially located in this district.
at least nine precincts in this district are located at churches. In Mississippi, precincts and polling places are one in the same.
by 49 I mean 64

I'm assuming Harris is not resigning until January 20 so she can swear in Padilla herself. Biden resigned on this day eleven years ago so it was Cheney who swore in Ted Kaufman.
Walter Mondale resigned December 30, 1976 so he didn't get to swear in his successor either.
Neither Johnson nor Humphrey swore in their successors in the Senate either. Last VP to do so was Alben Barkley, who was Truman's VP. He resigned January 19 and Garrett Withers was sworn in as the senator from Kentucky the next day.

If NC had a Senate race in 2018, Dems would have won it. Unfortunately for Dems the seats have been up in the wrong years. Dems will spend heavily on next year's race but they're underdogs with the lack of a top tier candidate and the state's partisanship.
Dems have exactly top tier officeholder and that's Roy Cooper. Since Dems failed to win the Lieutenant Governor's race, him running is completely out of the question.
State Senator Don Davis would be a strong candidate but him running is not going to happen. He'd never win a primary.

Grassley's commitment to the 99 county tour is impressive. It's part of his longevity in Iowa politics over the years. He shows up in every corner of the state.
He has been doing this every year since he first ran for the Senate in 1980.
The 99 county tour is so popular that other Iowa politicians have sought to do their own. Both Joni Ernst and Kim Reynolds do it too.

Both Ossoff and Warnock outperformed Biden in Georgia's 7th District. Raphael Warnock won this historically GOP district by eight points. Image
Romney won GA-7 60-38 in 2012 and Trump won it 51-45% in 2016.

The Republican resistance to the $2,000 checks idea is interesting. Trump has brought in a ton of new voters to the GOP but most mainstream Republicans still balk at embracing the more populist economic policies these voters like.
Trump has had very little success in this regard. He has by and large been unable to get mainstream Republicans to embrace his economic policies.
Even Republican Senators like Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson, who represent states where Trump did better than your average Republican, aren't rushing to embrace this stuff.
