    Fair enough on that score but that sorta overconfidence two years out makes my eye twitch.

    I don’t think enough people remember when Ted Cruz “filibustered” the Affordable Care Act by giving the worst read imaginable of Green Eggs and Ham and then telling his kids to say their prayers because “daddy’s coming home soon”. Beto would have won in a landslide if he just aired that clip on repeat.

    The data coming out from Texas is fascinating. The gains Beto made with women & young voters compared to HRC are huge - like 5X huge. And Cruz wasn’t remotely competitive in those demographics.

    I’m still skeptical about turning a statewide loss into a national win but goddamn Beto did some work the last 2 years.

    quote]TALLAHASSEE — After the Florida Department of Law Enforcement said Thursday night it would investigate two local election officials at the request of Gov. Rick Scott, the agency now says that because no voter fraud allegations were made, it is no longer pursuing an investigation.

    “What changed is that this morning we spoke with the Department of State and they indicated they had no criminal allegations of fraud,” FDLE spokesperson Gretl Plessinger told POLITICO in an email. “So, after speaking to them, we offered our assistance in the event any criminal allegations are identified.”

    #NC09 GOP candidate @MarkHarrisNC9’s campaign appears to have sent people door to door in rural Robeson & Bladen Counties to steal absentee ballots from elderly black voters and complete them for Harris. There were 1300+ such ballots in those counties in a race Harris won by 905.

    there are so many issues with federalism in a hyperpartisan environment where local communities are responsible for elections, health care, and schools
