    HUGE!  For those not paying attention to this race,  it means abortion,  congressional maps and many other political issues move towards the Ds. The Wisconsin Court is very powerful in state issues. 

    Democrat-backed candidate sweeps to win on Wisconsin Supreme Court

    Yet another key R loss. 



    its behind a paywall. great news though!

    This guy is a douche, but I think Ali is probably pointing to certain voting restrictions that will be lifted by a liberal court.  Things like drop boxes, unfettered early voting, etc.  He's right though.  That hurts R for sure and I don't see how they win WI.

    Perhaps, but the sentiment is the same... R's believe the only way they can win is by chicanery.

    Not in NC. Curious if she received some incentives from GOP to make the switch.

    What's interesting is that she represents Mecklenburg (Charlotte) and beat her R opponent by 20 points.  So does she really think she's going win re-election in a blue district?  Does she think that many true independents are there that will jump parties?  Seems like a stretch.  It will interesting to see if she votes to over ride a veto on abortion.  If she does, I can't see how she wins.  We'll have to keep an eye on this one out of interest.

    Admittedly, I don't know a thing about her or NC. That said, I tend to doubt she or anyone really thinks she'll win another election.  Kinda like Sinema...Just doing damage for now and later turning it into some other kind of career.  My guess from the cheap seats is that either someone's offering her something (money; job) for her soul or she was always planning on this and the GOP essentially ran two candidates. Outside chance she's a legit former Dem that finally bought into whatever right-wing voices got into her ear.

    Yeah the Sinema thing is vexing as well.  What is her play?  She can't split the party and win.  Is she retiring?  Maybe.

    Sinema is easy. ALWAYS floated to what was expedient for her own agenda. Which seems to be some measure of power and certainly attention.

    Ok that's fine if that's her play. So long as she doesn't split the party.

    Looks like some Kansas MAGAs are going to be googling how to become a youth sports inspector.
