I just looked to see who it is and itā€™s Cori Bush beating Clay!!! Letā€™s goooooooo! Score one for perseverance!!!

(Sheā€™s one of the candidates in Knock Down the House who loses her primary. Clay is the one who basically inherited the seat from his father.)

lol - imagine being so awful that you feel the need to ā€œoutflankā€ your primary opponent to the right, to get closer to Trump.

I donā€™t lol things that allow getting shares at like 92 still this week.

You can still probably get Omar at 93 or something. She pulled off funneling a million to her husband but thatā€™s probably legal and thatā€™s sad. Sheā€™s not losing of course.

I get the Minn NBC feed in Canada and its nothing but ads for her opponent

Lets go look at Amy McGraths current twitter

I get that trying to campaign during a pandemic is suboptimal. But yeah. Thanks for playing Amy.

It seems like the move is to just go almost full digital. Like 90-95%.

almost 100%

Amy digital ads Iā€™ve seen in living Kentuckyā€¦

Iā€™m not remembering anyā€¦

So what happened here is that the ā€œjournalistsā€ at the NYT talked to someone on the Jones team and just reported their statements as facts, right?

Seems like it, the articleā€™s all just peopleā€™s feelings on why they think their candidate is most likely to win aside from this paragraph

Observers expect Tuesdayā€™s primary to be close as well. But Michigan voters may not know the winners of this and many other races on election night because of a surge in absentee voting.

ā€œObserversā€. Well ok then must be true!

If they are the Observers from Fringe, then weā€™d be onto something.

I live in her district and Iā€™ve noticed the same thing, the guy is going crazy with the radio ads. I havenā€™t looked at his positions at all but Iā€™m going to just default Omar because lol males

I really donā€™t know what she can do to win that race. Booker had no chance either but heā€™d be priced higher than mcgrath simply because the internet is a bubble.

Even single digit polling is nowhere near good enough in KY. Dem numbers about right, Rā€™s get the rest happens in a lot of these polls in red states Iā€™ve noticed.

Trump only 49-47 approval in both KY/SC canā€™t be right.

editā€“looked at the data, itā€™s definitely too low for Rā€™s in KY. Really though if it did end up single digits, thatā€™s actually good.
