Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The fewer seats republicans have in the US house, the harder it is to get their stuff through. Moreover, if these seats flip or show a strong overperformance, Republicans will be way more weary about going along with Trump

    Vote Republican to allow Trump to raise the price of eggs, fire you from your job, take away your retirement and deport your spouse to El Salvador!

      MAGA(having problems with reading so stopping after the first few words): Yeah, bro. That’s exactly what we’re going to do. Vote Republican. Trump go!

      My area had local elections yesterday and in all seats where a Democrat ran, they won by at least a couple thousand votes (15+ points). If a Republican candidate ran unopposed, they were under by just about the same number of votes. People here (in Central IL) would rather not vote for anyone than vote for a Republican and I love to see it. Let’s hope the momentum and anger against Republicans continues into 2026 and 2028.

      Who knows how shit will fare farther out than a few months from today, but it would be hard to claim election fraud in those elections if there were massive Democrat wins in almost every election, especially those areas that previously went hard for tRump.

          I have thought about it. I’d be the Bernie Sanders of my area, unable to sit quietly and watch the world burn without speaking truth to power and making a stink for the right people. Just don’t have the drive to do that right now. Politics just seems like the worst thing to do with whatever life I have left.
