No Fetterman, no Manchin, no Sinema. Clean slate for the Democrats. Yes it is a big tent but we have more that brought us together than what separates us. Make America great again! 😜

OMG 😂 . . . I don't always agree with James Carville, but I have to say that I wish I had done this video 😂 😂 😂. This is me today, and virtually every day for the past two years.

I just went to vote in Westchester & machines are apparently broken county wide. They said choice is vote absentee or come back later. This is going to be crazy. Our country is in trouble.

4:30 just voted. Stuck my ballot in the bag. Still nobody there. The funniest thing today besides learning that I am a liar is that many people think I am MAGA. I am as anti T…mp as anyone have been since the USFL.

Mike Lawler who I think is in the Gilded Age is blaming it on the 16th district = Ardsley NY!
NEW: Mike Lawler details why he expects to know the results of the election tonight. Extra machines are on their way to the BOE and the ballots in the orange bags will be transported there to begin processing after 9 PM.

Ah yes. Textbook election-rigging by Dems, suppressing the vote in a county Kamala Harris carried by 26 pts.
This is how the Left steals elections. Mike Lawler’s competitive district and they are turning away voters.

If you’re wondering why Democrats are responding to what Haley Stevens did with a sense of betrayal it’s because it was quite literally betrayal. She told a number of her close friends and colleagues and staff that she’d be at church with Jim Clyburn - they were waiting for her there! And as for the notion that she’s choosing the candidate that isn’t promoting hate how can she justify that when just in the last few days Abdul has been called Muslim Brotherhood, a jihadist, and even a jihadist leprechaun. Sounds like a campaign of hate to me.

The only thing I'd say about Haley Stevens, who I knew pretty well in Congress, is that her actions have been neither principled nor opportunistic, just strange. I'd look more to experts in psychology than politics to explain them. But there are more important issues here. 1/

Last batch of NYT/Sienna polls are out. Bleak picture for Republicans. Not sure Stevens endorsement will be enough
