Between the feeble @APFactCheck on #2000Mules and Zeke Miller lying about filibusters defeating the abortion bill, the once-great @AP is basically the biggest misinformation wire service in the world.

As @JDVance1 should and no doubt the voters of Ohio want him to do.
Karl Rove is a grifter who cashes in even after he knows the race is lost. The guy is a dirtbag who serves no purpose in society other than enriching himself and the people Americans have been rejecting.
Remember when Karl Rove lost his mind on Election Night 2012 and @MegynKellyShow had to walk him over to the Decision Desk because he was too stupid to see @MittRomney lost?
Badly?
All B/C "the architect of the end of the GOP" was too stupid to read a census report on Franklin.
This idiot still thought he was looking at the Franklin County of 2004!
Honestly, folks. That's how stupid Karl Rove was and still is.
"The Architect".
Yeah, "The Architect of the End of the Republican Party Until Donald Trump Came Along".
Republicans have some "real" candidates this time and could win seats they never even dreamed possible with this shift in the Hispanic vote and realignment.
But the Establishment and GOP donor class who owns them are holding them back.
They are their weak links.
You want a "for instance", look no further than @DavidGiglioCA. The man has been running a face-to-face campaign visiting traditional Democratic strongholds in a majority Hispanic district for a year.
No joke, ghettos.
The GOPe pushes a donor with no chance to win in November.
This no-chance donor candidate enriches Establishment consultants—same fake pollsters who told Mandel he was ahead, by the way—who have literally been plagiarizing David's campaign rhetoric and slogans in advertising.
If current trends hold, there are more counties that could flip from Mandel to Vance as more ED vote is counted, including Guernsey, Crawford, Wayne.
As for counties currently in the camp for @dolan4ohio, both Lake and Summit are threatening to slip away to @JDVance1 if those trends hold, with only 54 and 18 votes separating the two, respectively.
And there goes Guernsey. That one is now in the Vance column. Wayne improved for Mandel slightly.
1. Quite some time ago, @patrickjwitt came on the show to talk about how Facebook refused his ad because of claims regarding the 2020 election.
@YouTube, all this time later, has now removed that episode after a strike for a guest's remark.
Ironically...
2. Ironically, all of this added scrutiny on old stuff comes after I straight tweeted treats about openly discussing war crimes committed by Ukraine with the audience, which are absolutely true.
Nobody has ever tried to dispute the veracity of those claims, because they're true.
3. It's worth point out that @YouTube did NOT issue an additional strike for the removal of this content.
But I think it's very clear the message from the Ministry of Truth is being heard by YouTube, and this is not a coincidence re: threats over Ukraine.
Plus, those "pissed off women" are largely a MEDIA MYTH. For years, we and others find men who ID as "pro-choice" are more opposed to abortion restrictions than women who ID as "pro-choice".
True for 3/4: "Views on Abortion and Recent Proposals Nested By Designation and Gender"
The only way the SCOTUS ruling can hurt Republicans is if weak and rather stupid GOPe leaders let the media put them in a box that was constructed in the 1990s to contain this debate.
Since then, science has not been kind to the abortion industry, and shows in opinion research.
The Establishment wants Matt Dolan to win tomorrow win Ohio. He would probably be the least representative of the entire pack, but that could happen if they succeed in fracturing the America First vote.
That being said, because of the lack of vote history in a closed primary, it is entirely possible that some pollsters are over representing the educated, reliable GOP primary vote in the Buckeye State, and underrepresenting the new pro-Trump converts with no primary vote history.
That also being said, America First can't take anything for granted in Ohio given how much $ the Establishment dumped into Matt Dolan on top of his own fortune.
It's a remarkable dynamic considering it's a state that Republicans can squander by returning to the Establishment.
