Here is where Schumer and Jeffries get their orders….

DEMOCRATIC (DSA) Party Platform:

Strip Americans of all their hard-earned resources and retirement savings, forcing them to live hand-to-mouth, and then replace Americans by blowing all their money on illegals brought in from every cesspool country in the world; resulting in the USA becoming a Marxist third world country dominated by crime, injustice, and corruption.

  2. From the tail end of the last thread;

    Mark Halperin said a while ago, that he could easily see every competitive Senate race but North Carolina going red given the high-quality private pulling over the last couple of days. He also noted that they could all easily go blue as well, but the only real caveat he had in the damn favor was the Atlas poll which it seems was taken only of “adults“ instead of likely voters.

  12. Was just listening to Abbott on Hannity. I don’t know if its just his personality he didn’t seem very enthused. Hannity kept saying he wanted a turnout of 3 million and Abbott twice said it would be about 2.5 million.

    I just didn’t get a real positive vibe but I never really heard him speak before, maybe he is just kind of reserved. He made a good case for why the Dem shouldn’t win, but earlier Byron Donalds sounded very positive.

    I think Gov Abbott has always been rather reserved in his speech pattern, he also is probably tired and just glad the campaign is finally over. Also, I’m pretty sure that he wins and so does Paxton, but by not as much as Abbott.

    According to NBC News exit polling, the Great Latino Comeback for Democrats is apparently just 6 points on net (D-R). It was 33 points in 2018, 10 points in 2024, and now is 16 points. That’s D43 R27 I30. That is not what pre-election polling showed. Times/Siena National poll showed D+26 for Party ID and D+30 for Party Lean. (That poll was D+11 for the CGB all LVs). Times/Siena Composite Battleground polling was D+22 (TX IA KS MI AK OH ME).

  33. Joe, from what I read earlier this morning, the Rs wanted a cushion of 600,000 to feel good about the statewide vote just in case the polls showing the independents breaking 75-25 against them were correct. I personally don’t think independents will break that sharply, but anything is possible.
