Uncommitted got over 100k votes in Michigan

this is pretty big considering their goal was 10000, and they got 20000 in 2012. I wouldn't read too much into it since Biden got over 80% of the vote. However, if a large percentage stays home in November or vote third party Trump could win in Michigan. The Biden campaign has some work to do in Michigan.

Nevada Biden got 112k vote, Trump got 59k

but I'm sure you will keep hearing that Biden has enthusiasm gap and Trump is increasing his vote from MSM.

I'm glad inflation is starting to cool

However, people will keep saying the economy is bad based on what they pay at the store. If people are still paying $300+ a week for food, than to them the economy is bad. I get the messaging about the jobs report but if people aren't aren't paying less money at the store, this is will not get them out of their economy is bad vibe. The Biden administration needs to do everything they can to help lower prices in the food sector because that's where most of the cost is coming out of in people's pockets. People laughed about the $16 big mac meal from McDonalds story but that's how most people measure the economy. We need to stop belittling that online.

Fun Fact Gov of Kentucky election has predicted

Which party is going to win the Presidential race the next year since at least 2001. This could a bad omen for the GoP next year. Since Andy Bershare won I wonder does that Biden is going to win re elect next year.

BREAKING Mike Johnson is the 56th Speaker of the House

Final tally is going to be 220 - 209. May their majority be short lived.

I think Mike Johnson will be Speaker of the House today

the MAGAs got what they wanted, a hardliner that will not fund Ukraine and make no deals with Democrats. The so-called Moderates in the Republican caucus will not save us. I hope this cost them the House in 2024.
