🚨AUGUST SPECIAL ELECTION THREAD🚨

August comes before November.

After a surprisingly close Special Election in red #NE01, Democrats must pay attention to the 4 remaining Congressional Special Elections this summer.

Winning even 1 would be huge news for Team Blue.

🧵🧵🧵
📢SPECIAL ELECTION - MINNESOTA 1ST CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT📢

Democrat - Jeff Ettinger (@SouthernMN4Jeff)
Election Date - 🗓️TUESDAY, AUGUST 9TH🗓️
Area - Southern Minnesota
Early Voting - Already underway!

This seat flipped red in 2018, and was only won by 3 points in 2020.
📢SPECIAL ELECTION - ALASKA AT-LARGE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT📢

Democrat - Mary Peltola (@MaryPeltola)
Election Date - 🗓️TUESDAY, AUGUST 16TH🗓️
Area - Statewide
Early Voting - Begins August 1st

Ranked choice election.

Be sure to rank Mary Peltola first and Sarah Palin dead last!
📢SPECIAL ELECTION - NEW YORK 23RD CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT📢

Democrat - Max Della Pia (@DellaPiaForNY23)
Election Date - 🗓️TUESDAY, AUGUST 23RD🗓️
Area - Southern Tier of NY
Early Voting - Begins August 13th

An area of NY as red as the area of #NE01 that we came close to winning.
📢SPECIAL ELECTION - NEW YORK 19TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT📢

Democrat - Pat Ryan (@PatRyanUC)
Election Date - 🗓️TUESDAY, AUGUST 23RD🗓️
Area - Northern Hudson Valley
Early Voting - Begins 8/13

The race that is the most flippable for the GOP.

We MUST keep this seat blue.

Since the fake electors are getting so much attention from both the January 6th Committee, the Department of Justice, and State Attorneys General, now would be a good time to repeat - and remember - their names.

🚨THE MOST DANGEROUS REPUBLICANS OF 2022🚨

As more radical GOPers secure their nominations in toss-up races, I'll update this thread with:

Who they are
Which office they are running for
Why they are dangerous
Which Democrat is opposing them
How to help

We can defeat them all. Image
REPUBLICAN: Doug Mastriano

RACE: Pennsylvania Governor

FACTS: Attended the 1/6 insurrection; QAnon; could appoint a Secretary of State who steals PA's 20 ECVs; wants a total ban on abortion with no exceptions for rape or incest.

DEMOCRAT: Josh Shapiro

REPUBLICAN: Kristina Karamo

RACE: Michigan Secretary of State

FACTS: 'Big Lie' believer; QAnon; homophobe; believes the 1/6 insurrection was staged by ‘leftists’; says that Beyonce, Billie Eilish and yoga are ‘satanic.’

DEMOCRAT: Jocelyn Benson

Wow. If Jim Inhofe resigns, that could negate the current absence of Democratic Senator Ben Ray Lujan.

And according to Oklahoma law, Oklahoma's Governor can't immediately appoint a successor. They must be elected.
Per @ballotpedia Oklahoma law on the subject matter is as clear as mud. Image

Here is a list of Americans who I suspect are being paid, blackmailed or otherwise compromised by Vladimir Putin:

Donald Trump
Glenn Greenwald
Tucker Carlson
Tulsi Gabbard
Candace Owens
Steve Bannon
Josh Hawley

Anyone else?
Reminded by @Lee_in_Iowa about the "Moscow Independence Day Eight". Not sure what their comments have been about Ukraine, but that trip was always suspicious.

Of those 8, Ron Johnson DEFINITELY tops the list.

Omg how I could possibly forget Mike Flynn?!?!

Erik Prince is a solid possibility, too.

Be more strategic in your donations this year!

We’ll be tempted to give to Dems running against the most repulsive GOPers in Congress.

But most of those races are unwinnable and we’d be throwing our $$$ away.

Focus on defending *vulnerable* Dems and flipping *winnable* seats.
I admire those who take up the fight against Republicans against the longest of odds.

It’s important for people to get in the ring and offer an alternative.

But we also have to be realistic and spend our money wisely.
Amy McGrath raised *$90M* in 2020,

But she went on to lose by 20 points, and polls never had her close.

So many donors saw the name ‘Mitch McConnell’ and reflexively gave to her campaign when they could’ve donated that money to other races where it might’ve made a difference.

Will 2022 be the year of the black woman?

We're on track to get our first black female Supreme Court Justice.

We have the chance to elect strong candidates like Stacey Abrams, Cheri Beasley and Val Demings in the midterms.

We all must do our part.

Help these trailblazers win!
Donate to Stacey Abrams here:
