Literally anything is in play at this point. But, again, today's not election day.

You could get struck by lightning. You could win the lottery. The Browns could win the Super Bowl next year. All these things are in play but about as likely as that district flipping.

Meh with the right candidate seats can flip. Not likely, it’s true but it’s possible.

Fight every election. Block by block.

This in Queens, Astoria and northern LIC. Zohran Mamdani’s district, you’ve heard of him 🙂

Democrat Christian Menefee won a Texas special election for the U.S. House of Representatives on Saturday 1/31.

Prediction bet: How long will it take Johnson to swear Menefee in?

+Meneffee = 218-214

3 House vacancies in Georgia, New Jersey and California are scheduled to be filled by special elections in March, April and August.

Post any others please.

It was today! I’m as surprised as you are.‼️

Three quarters of a million people spent 336 days without representation in Congress.

Johnson wasn’t going to play that game with Menefee. Couldn’t use government shutdown excuse like he did with Adelita Grijalva.

Today, a cold and icy Thursday, was the primary for Governor Mikie Sherrill’s congressional seat in Georgia. Results TBD, but the turnout is crazy.

To be fair, AIPAC got involved and it quelled support for Tom Malinosky, who was the moderate Dem in the race.
