It should be noted that in #MI12 that although Rashida Tlaib won her reelection bid, she dropped -7.3% of the vote since her last election in 2020 meaning that at the current moment -26,604 less people voted for her.
Additionally, #MO1 Cori Bush also lost support. At this moment she lost 6.1% of the vote from her last election in 2020 and is -89,045 votes behind her previous election bid.
Jamaal Bowman in #NY16 suffered some of the most losses of the “Squad” members. At this moment, He has dropped -23.1% of the vote compared to 2020. That is currently -92,744 votes than his last election in 2020.👀
Ayanna Pressley #MA7 has so far lost less ground among the “Squad” members but significantly lower turnout compared to her last election in 2020 which was understandably a presidential election. Currently, she’s only down -1.7% of the vote compared to 2020 but is -122,086 votes
Out of all the “Squad” members Ilhan Omar has actually improved her votes despite almost losing her primary. Atm although losing -41,725 votes compared to her last election in 2020, she’s gained +10.8% of the vote share. Granted in 2020 there were more candidates but still #MN5

So what’s the takeaway? Well although every “Squad” member won their reelection bids, they all lost votes and % pts (other than Ilhan in %) compared to previous elections meaning they are becoming more and more unpopular in heavily blue districts.
Ilhan don’t forget, only won her last primary by 2.1% of the vote or by 2,466 votes. Compare that with her 2020 primary where she won by 19.7% or 35,011 votes. The Justice Democrats are losing steam. All it takes is the right candidate with the energy backing them💁♂️ #Election2022
