Newest Platner story, about yesterdays meeting with dem senators. This kinda reminded me of Roy Moore: “Whether you like him or not, he is who we have to support,” Amanda Litman, a co-founder of a Democratic recruitment and training organization Run for Something said in a video posted Monday on X.

Not a ringing endorsement. I guess the big worry now is that one of the 6 to 12 people he was sexting was underage at the time. At least thats what I heard the biggest fear is. I imagine even if all were of age, having a drip drip of them coming forward could be problematic to the campaign.

Will the powers that be push him out like they did Bernie 2 times?? Or risk letting him lose in what should be a good pick up opportunity? I got my popcorn ready.

I'm tired of all these candidate fuck-ups. Thanks a lot, Cal Cunningham!

"Ms. Racicot, who said she agreed with many of Mr. Platner’s policies, said she had an off-and-on relationship with Mr. Platner and had positive memories. But she was not shocked, she said, when she saw the incendiary comments he had made about women that have surfaced during the campaign. “I was like, that makes sense,” she said. “This person does not respect women.”"

Sorry to triple post I couldn't edit

Manu raju got quick Platner question to gillibrand before she walked into the chamber. All she said is that dems were going to win Maine. This coming from the lady that railroaded Al Franken, but defending this guy 😂

Democratic "leaders" have no spine!!!1

6/27/2026 12:09:54 PM

Had to guess who that was and I was right!

6/27/2026 1:59:15 PM

Linda Sarsour is back. Not sure that's a good thing.

Daily mail article about paxton and his mistress going to iceland for the 4th. In the article they show a pic of him, mistress, and mistress ex husband in same pic lol. The religious right will somehow be ok with this

6/29/2026 10:06:32 PM

LOL!

They livin' in Frisco!

6/30/2026 7:56:40 AM

seems like dems in maine traded one shitty candidate for another...how did they bungle this so bad

7/22/2026 9:26:19 AM

Well, let's not forget that Susan Collins is also an RFK-sounding POS.

7/22/2026 9:48:52 AM

^^what's the problem with the new candidate?

7/22/2026 10:22:10 AM

Reports there will be a drip drip drip of oppo research coming out like platner...one report so far about his temper with more to follow

7/22/2026 10:30:00 AM

^^
He got mad and threw a water bottle one time!



Not fit for office!

7/22/2026 12:44:18 PM

reports of the same thing that happens in every race ever?

well I never

7/22/2026 1:12:47 PM

Can't have anymore do overs after this!

7/22/2026 1:54:38 PM

Whoever is the flawless candidate should step forward!

7/22/2026 2:17:26 PM

With the caveats of "who knows" and "it's only July," a case for optimism?

Quote :

"Here's my latest at the 50+1 blog: Despite some tightening in the generic ballot, Democrats are still heavy House favorites and lead or are tied in 6 GOP-held Senate seats, making them nearly even odds to take it, too. Jackson at +2 in Maine. https://blog.fiftyplusone.news/p/fiftyplusone-nowcast-update-troy"

My optimism died.

7/23/2026 6:33:08 PM

Trump lied, optimism died

7/24/2026 11:37:39 PM

Hong giving crowley a fight. Establishment shitting bricks cause they want to win and think hong is cray cray

8/11/2026 11:38:30 PM

Hong lost.

8/12/2026 6:55:30 AM

Mike Lindell refusing to concede, after losing by ~11%, because "irregularities" (in a primary, against another republican)

8/12/2026 9:27:05 AM

And they'll entertain it for sure.

Just like our NC Supreme Court.

8/12/2026 4:44:29 PM

Darlene graham ahead 54/46 with 31% counted. Norman doing well in Greenville area, same place hayden panettiere died. I wonder if The Coz was allowed to vote in this one

Was that Coz?

I was allowed to, but I ultimately didn't because both candidates are complete garbage.

^
No, not me this time.

8/25/2026 8:31:38 PM

Looking up sc primary rules is on my to do. If you voted in say dem primary can you also vote in repub race and vice versa? In texas i couldn't vote against paxton and also for talarico

8/25/2026 9:02:16 PM

No, you can only vote in one primary series per cycle.

I didn't vote in the Democratic primary because I wasn't informed at the needed level. That left me eligible to vote in the Republican primary and to attempt to vote for the least bad candidate. Pretty depressing.

8/26/2026 1:22:40 AM

I’m an election worker for Wake County if anyone has questions. Been doing it for about ten years in various positions.
