  1. A reminder that Democrats in Congress have an anti-gerrymandering bill ready to go and Republicans have refused to even vote on it for months.

    Oh this is great news. I was hearing some concerning rumors about low turnout.

  3. Woah, permission to feel hope? If Trump crashed out, I’ll take that as a sign to feel some hope.

    Hey everyone — this measure NARROWLY passed. Please, if you’re reading this and you are concerned about the midterms, dedicate some of your time to canvassing, phone banking, getting out the vote for local, special elections, and especially the midterms. Call out your loser, non-voter, bOtH SiDeS aRe tHe SaMe friends. Put your foot down with MAGA family. We HAVE to not assume someone else is doing the work

    All these special elections since Trump got elected again. It’s going to be a blowout in November.

    Keep this blue wave going everyone.

    Anything that happens in the midterms, good or bad, is primarily the Dems fault because they can’t seem to separate themselves from an increasingly unpopular genocide and war. If they get what they want, they will tell us they can’t do popular progressive policies for XYZ, and if they lose, they will blame some marginalized community as a scapegoat, and tell us they can’t do popular progressive policies for XYZ.

    I’m kinda over it.

    This is genuinely a move in the right direction, I’m sick of this he better mentality Dems have. We need to follow in these partisan games.

    Keep’em coming, because every victory, big or small, matters, and them fascists are bound to lose.

  9. This would be awesome if I thought that Trump would let the midterms go on as normal but I’m not there yet. I just don’t see him letting Dems control the house. Hope I’m wrong but he’s going to try something.

  10. I wrote dozens of postcards to voters in VA for this with Reclaim Our Vote! 💙💙💙

  11. Great news.

    (I have this kind of hollow empty feeling though. Like – that’s it? Why are you – a former president – not doing more than having an intern tweet some perfunctory slop for you?)

    Why does it have to be blue vs red. Drop the parties so we can finally come together as a country and start healing. Parties divide us which is exactly what they want.

  13. It unnerves me how casual Democrats are still. I just don’t feel the urgency from them that moment demands. Why do I feel more angry than my elected officials?
