The difference was DEMOGRAPHICS. Arizona is very purple. A good campaign can turn it blue. #CO03 is mostly red. A good campaign can turn it purple. #GA14 is deep red. A $15M mega-campaign can ... nudge it a few points & still end up deep in the red.

Every dollar donated to the Flowers campaign is a dollar that could have been used to defeat a Republican in a winnable district instead. You are threatening democracy in America by squandering this money. fivethirtyeight.com/features/why-l

I put vastly too much work into this map of the 2011 Mary-Mander, but I hope fans like will enjoy it. #MD

Maryland Dem leadership kowtows to the Congress-critters WAY too much. Sarbanes, Dutch, Mfume, etc, requested certain neighborhoods in their districts, so state legislature made it happen. It wasn't even a tactical anti-Republican gerrymander, just personal preference.

ElectLeft Retrospective: It turns out is in fact a scammer with a good marketing team. But at the time I didn't know how to tell. DO NOT DONATE to nebulous NPOs online that you haven't seen in person or in MULTIPLE news articles.

This was my worst post of the year, 3 out of 4 wrong. 🤷 I'm very bad at Republican primaries and shouldn't try to predict them any more.

#WY01 (Cheney) R+25 = likely lose primary #WA04 (Newhouse) R+12 = it's complicated* #WA03 (JHB) R+5 = probably win* #SC07 (Rice) R+11 = likely lose primary #MI03 (Meijer) D+1 = hard to say #CA22 (Valadao) D+3 = likely lose general* * = top-two open primary twitter.com/atrupar/status…
Dear , we appreciate that you ran, and especially that you didn't hog millions of donation dollars like a certain GA14 grifter. But #OH04 is a 30-70 district. No Democrat can win there. If Lincoln or Reagan came back from the dead & ran as a Democrat, they'd lose.

And just think, if people would have supported my campaign, I could have beat Jim Jordan.🙄 I will beat him in 2024!

underestimated: #KS03 #NC13 #OH13 #WA03. overestimated: Tim Ryan, #CA13 #CA22 #CA27 #NY03 #NY04 #NY17. yes-timated: AK AZ FL GA IA ME MI MN NH NM NV OR PA TX VA WI battlegrounds (esp #TX34), the rest of CA NC OH, #CO07 #CO08. nailed: safe blue & too red lists (esp #GA14). #🌬️my📯

FWIW best guess 50 Senate seats +/- 2. Definitely Kelly & Hassan (my 2 least favorite battleground Senators), probably Warnock & Fetterman, maybe Ryan & Cortez Masto. As for the House, let's just say I hope I'm wrong. GET OUT THE VOTE mobilize.us

I'm confused. Redistricting left #NY04 largely intact. It was by far the bluest district the Dems lost, nationwide. My 100% win "Safe Blue" list had lots of seats half as blue. Gillen had respectable $1.4M funding. It shoulda been a gimme. What happened, ?

The Dems hung Laura Gillen out to dry in a totally winnable race on Long Island. They gave up after the redistributing battle was lost.

Retrospective Analysis: Dems did in fact win 2/3rds of my battleground short list. It should have been just enough, but four races with bluer demographics lost: #CA13 #MD06 #NY04 #NY17 Changing the result from predicted 218-217 to 214-221 (or 215-220 if Frisch beats Boebert).

ElectLeft: Protect This House! thread🧵 3 weeks away, here are the close battleground elections. DEMS MUST WIN 2/3rds of these to retain House majority. WE MUST FOCUS our efforts here! If you're posting about unwinnable seats like #GA14 #OH04 or ARxx, YOU ARE HELPING REPUBLICANS.

σ+50% States will have wildly varying generic averages, with a mix of red & blue waves, hopefully dumbfounding pundits trying to manufacture a national narrative.

If coward had stayed in #NY18 with 2/3rds of his constituents, both he & would be staying in the House. Instead he betrayed Mondaire, New York, & the nation, costing them TWO incumbents. YOU SUCK, COWARD SEAN PATRICK MALONEY!
Quote Tweet
2 words for this: 1) Cowardice 2) Hypocrisy Maloney's job is to help Dems win tough seats. He's now abandoning his own district to run against a fellow Dem in a safer district. Maloney is RUNNING from a fight he's supposed to be LEADING. Embarrassing, disgraceful behavior. twitter.com/spmaloney/stat…

p.s. Grifter Marcus Flowers 34% vs Marjorie Three Toes 66%. Please remember this @CaseyDallasTX @PattyAnnWoods et al. YOU HELPED REPUBLICANS BY WASTING MONEY & EFFORT.

I've done my best to reach people with accurate information about where to donate, and where NOT to. At this point, ANY FURTHER DONATIONS SHOULD GO TO RIDE SHARING FUNDS, providing free transportation to polling places. The candidates have already spent what they can.
