  • Hopkins [D] wins borough mayor’s race in Fairbanks [an R+15 region in Alaska]

    Jump

  • Also should mention thay they also have many other districts and swing states on that site too

    Can also find some other volunteer opportunities for in person and online stuff on https://mobilize.us

  • If you have any interest in helping make that possible, you can help some letters to increase Alaska turnount (focused on defending the Alaska house seat for dems, so still important even if it doesn't flip for president)

  • These California and Colorado ballot measures are terrifying the meat industry

    Jump

  • The yes on Measure J campaign is more cash strapped compared to the mostly meat industry funded opposition. They are more of a grassroots campaign. If you have the means, they can use donations or volunteers to help out

  • So you don’t like Trump or Harris – here’s why it’s still best to vote for one of them

    Jump

  • It didn't say "have to" as in you are legally obligated to. It says why "it's best to" and explains why 3rd parties act as spoilers in the first past the post system and how voting for a 3rd party can lead to the exact opposite person winning than who you want

  • Trump plan for Madison Square Garden rally compared to infamous Nazi event

    Jump

  • Well some of the criticism is from Republicans too

  • Swing state voting support for college students

    Jump

  • Not OP, but while it's obviously not a swing for president, it's worth reminding that down ballot races matter everywhere. New York is a good part of the reason why republicans got a narrow majority in the house in 2022 and can be a part of how we flip it back

  • A Crazier Path to 270: Can Harris Wrest Alaska Away From Trump?

  • Ironically, if you do that with Alaska, you'd think it's already blue. Here's alaska in 2016

  • A Crazier Path to 270: Can Harris Wrest Alaska Away From Trump?

    Jump

  • Keep in mind that there have only been 3 polls in Alaska since Biden dropped out and one of those was a republican sponsored one

    Yes it's more likely than not that Trump wins alaska, but data is limited. It's still a low but not a zero percent chance he doesn't. Regardless of this cycle, it keeps moving closer each election and certainly could be a competitive state in the future for president

  • ME-02 was just a small example. The ME-02 I believe was on the presidential race (Maine like Nebraska splits their electoral votes). The link was about the congressional race. To be fair, I mostly just remember it because they ran an ad that accidentally stated with "Dear Virginia" in Maine. Trump has also been relying more on PACs for his campaign to be fair as he's been outsourcing a lot more. Regardless, they've also done things like as another example pull money out of New Hampshire which they thought they, while probably not winning, could at least narrow margins on earlier with Biden in

    Normally, I'd agree with that about debating. However, even other republicans were earlier urging trump to debate again and he still declined

  • Fox News edits Trump interview clip to remove muddled response to Jeffrey Epstein question [June 10th]

    Jump

  • Oh oops, didn't see the date was a bit ago. I saw it linked elsewhere online first and didn't catch that it was from june when reading the article

  • Trump rejects Fox News invite to debate Harris in late October

    Jump

  • That is missing my point about their spending changes. Districts and states are hardly isolated from each other. The movments within one tends to correlate well with others. If there's slipage for republicans in fairly red ME-2, it bodes well for other states

    Republicans are more resource limited right now compared to dems. If think they need to allocate money away from those swing states into ME-2 (which running up the score in doesn't particularly matter), what does that say about how they view the race?

    Not to say they couldn't be just allocating poorly and making poor choices, but in that case then this whole discussion is moot about reading into their decisions as to not to debate

  • Trump rejects Fox News invite to debate Harris in late October

    Jump

  • That doesn't line up as how the Republican campaign has been acting. For instance, they've started spending in areas like ME-2 which has been pretty strongly Republican for a while

    Down ballot they're republicans are uping spending in places that should be theoretically solidly red like Nebraska (senate race) and Indiana (governor race)

    How I'd read it has more to do with how Trump's been having more obvious mental decline lately. A second debate would really show that

  • Walz: ‘The Electoral College needs to go’

    Jump

  • It's more than a "handshake". States are actually passing laws for this. Plus there's nothing stopping you from going above 270 electoral votes

    Once it's been in effect for a while, it would make a formal constitutional ammendment to fully remove it a lot easier to get though
