Please tag your thread titles with party and state! Like: "Mark Warner (D-VA), ahead in polls"

We aren't all knowledgeable about each candidate in each race, and it gives the rest of us an idea what you're posting about.

I just counted 10 threads without identifying information.

Please? Thanks

On locations when posting stories. One I read earlier just listed the county and it took awhile to figure out where that was located as the US has many counties with similar names.

Posting in GD and the name of the newspaper or city doesn't make it clear. For example, The Sentinel. Another example, the Albany Herald, is out of Georgia, not New York.

His name is Gade, and I remember him because he is an amputee (Iraq war) Army Ranger who had a go at Trump, and caused a stir within the QAnon/MAGAt cult set when he won the primary, because he is far more moderate than most of the others.

Beyond that, I have little knowledge, other than Warner will win in a cakewalk.
