🚨 Gerrymandering Alert 🚨
Kansas Senate President Susan Wagle (R) told donors that Republicans must maintain their
#ksleg
supermajority so they can create gerrymandered state & federal districts to undermine the will of voters & ensure complete Republican control of the state.
A lot of good information on the work
@RepDavids
is doing here, but this may be my favorite-
“Chatting over an end-of-day sandwich and a bag of Doritos in her Kansas City office, she left the door open in case a constituent decided to wander in.”
"No" is winning Johnson County, Kansas by 72-29 percent with 95% of the vote counted. Biden won it just 53-45, Laura Kelly won it 55-38 percent in 2018.
Methinks this thing is gonna go down.
The narrative that female candidates are unqualified - even when they have the most relevant experience in the race - is sexist and tired. Let's keep it to the issues, people.

Said Larkin: “I can see a strong conservative Congress putting forward that vote to ban it nationally.”
On the campaign trail, nothing got a bigger applause than when

said she would be the governor that expands Medicaid (well, other than when she said she would beat Kris Kobach).
Daily reminder that elections matter.

Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly has won a ruling from the Kansas Supreme Court that said she holds sweeping powers to shut down operations in the state, including large church services, in the face of the coronavirus crisis.
This high-speed rail project has bipartisan support from the entire NV delegation, the governor's administration, & business and labor groups.
AND it's set to create jobs, reduce traffic, and boost our state's economy.
But sure, keep reminding Nevadans that you just moved here.
Here’s the truth behind the headlines:
Train project owned by private equity firm is handed a giveaway of $3 billion in public taxpayer dollars from Senate Democrat Jacky Rosen.
Rosen runs up the bill, and Americans are forced to pick up the tab.

Here it is:
Herschel Walker got a girlfriend pregnant in 2009, urged her to get an abortion, and then reimbursed her for the procedure.
Herschel Walker also says there should be no exceptions for abortion. (Except for himself I guess.)
Even in the reddest parts of

Sounds like more bad news for

One thing that is very striking about the abortion vote map from last night. It's not just urban and suburban counties like WyCo, JoCo & Sedgwick-- several rural GOP leaning counties like Osage (which hasn't vote for a Dem since LBJ) also voted no.

Asked Sam Brown if he would support legislation in the Senate to codify the right to contraception (failed last week) or IVF (coming up):
Said he hadn't read them but that he was concerned the issue is "artificially manufactured". Added that he supports contraception & IVF
For the past decade, Sam Brown has opposed a woman’s right to make her own health care decisions and made those anti-abortion views clear in questionnaires, on tape, and as the local president of an extreme organization that supported Texas’ six-week abortion ban.

Quite the split screen here between a Senator who's lived in NV for 40+ years and is leading the fight to ban bump stocks in the wake of 1 Oct, and a perennial candidate who just moved to the state & is completely out of step with Nevadans on gun safety (among other things).
Adkins' Dad puts $50K into a PAC to help his daughter's campaign (much less than the $300K he spent in the 2020 race).
The PAC's most recent purchase? Billboards supporting Adkins.
