2024 Senate Elections

Anonymous
“Montana businessman Tim Sheehy built his aerial firefighting company, Bridger Aerospace, on certain scientific realities — namely that global climate change is real and driving more extreme wildfires. He even touted it as a leader in the fight against planet-warming emissions.

But when it came time to campaign for the U.S. Senate, the GOP hopeful quickly embraced partisan talking points on climate, repeatedly railing against what he calls the “climate cult” and “radical environmentalists,” while blaming the growing wildfire threat exclusively on forest mismanagement.

And while the Trump-endorsed MAGA conservative flipped his script on climate, his company continues to embrace climate and wildfire science — at least in public filings.

Hogan should be running for president against one of our popular Dem governors. This would give us a chance at having a fit for the job leader for the next four year presidential term. Instead, we are left to choose between probably unfit and definitely unfit. Good thing there is nothing crazy going on the world right now to the extent that we may need a good leader between now and 2029..... god help us

I don't buy it. Is Hogan going to come out as pro-choice and pledge to support a federal law guaranteeing the right to an abortion?

Yeah, I didn't think so.

Hogan would never win a Republican primary so would never be running for President against a Democrat.

Sheehy is running against Jon Tester, an actual farmer who’s missing fingers due to a thresher.

“GOP candidate for Senate in Montana Tim Sheehy is saying he grew up on an old farmstead surrounded by farmland in Minnesota… He grew up in Shoreview and went to Saint Paul Academy.

It's always projection. GOP elites railing against...other elites. In this instance, not even one.

And following in Trump's footsteps, Kari Lake is trying to "rally" her supporters to political violence while framing in a way that she will claim she was not pushing her supporters to make violent threats against voters and election workers. She tells her supporters to "strap on a Glock" on the side for the next 6 months.

I hope Arizona wakes up to these political terrorists because they are trying to scare Democrats and Independents from going out to vote and is essentially election interference.

Thus proving that there are no good Republicans anywhere. Project 2025’s goals? Nationwide abortion and birth control bans? Letting our enemies drive our policy? Hogan has no problem with any of that.

2021 Senate = 50R/50D
2023 Senate = 49R/51D

Seems like a win fro the Ds to me. But maybe you have some alternative facts.


I guess you are forgetting Lindsey Graham. Money doesn’t mean a victory.

There have been Democrats who outspent their Republican opponents, but what PP said was that Democrats lost the 2022 Senate cycle, which is not true.

They don't want young people, students or older people to vote...

+1
Hogan will get the MAGA vote because it is important for the GOP to win the Senate.

Hogan does not need to make this pledge to win Maryland votes.
