It's hard to come up with concrete criticisms of the Democratic party as a whole.

Progressive Democrats:
wealth tax, hostility towards entrepreneurship

Dem establishment:
NIMBYism, restrictive zoning policies

Atlas D-avatars:
full federal marijuana legalization

Is there no early voting for this?

I think early voting opened up a couple weeks ago and ended last weekend

This race seems to be gaining traction among the resist lib crowd, so I'm expecting a competitive race

Oh, I'm shocked no one has done any updates. I saw GeorgiaVotes is back - is this data for the SC race? (are there other things on the ballot on 5/21 or just this race?)

I mean it's a non partisan race and the last time a GA supreme court incumbent lost was in the 1800s I believe. Not to mention Barrow is running a pro abortion campaign but was one of the most pro life Dems when he served in Congress.

Remember that Trump’s 2020 vote share increase among black voters was more because of decreased turnout among this group than people flipping from D to R (in fact, 2020 exit polls indicated that only 1% of black 2016 Clinton voters flipped to Trump in 2020). The decrease in turnout can be attributed to Democrats not reaching out to this group as much as they did before, along with the fact that most blacks have traditionally preferred Election Day voting over absentee voting (the latter of which dominated the 2020 election).

Yeah, dems didn't reach out to black voters at all in 2020 where BLM dominated the news. They definitely did not bend over backwards to win their vote

I would’ve said no until Jon Ralston said that all of the D house incumbents were in trouble. He doesn’t usually raise the alarm for no reason and clearly thinks that Dems are losing ground in NV, and it was already a close state to begin with.

As of now this is probably a pure tossup (I.e. that Rs win one of these districts).

This. Tbh Democrats might have screwed themselves over by spreading their votes so thin...it's a house of cards...one big red wave and a 4-0 R House delegation is hardly impossible (maybe not this year, but then in 2026 if Biden pulls off a win).

No. Truth is, with a few spurts here and there, turnout generally declined until 2004. Even as recessions came and went.

2020 was literally the highest since 1900, surpassing 1960, which not even 2008 could do!

Since no one mentioned it I’m just gonna point out McCormick has seven kids he’s leaving behind.

Someone link the famous Truman photo

James Buchanan by a three:two ratio over ex-President Millard Fillmore of the Know-Nothing Party.  It doesn't seem that John C. Fremont (much like Abraham Lincoln in 1860) was even on the ballot in Virginia.
