@revelette1,
I also watched that show, and Comey couldn’t answer many of her q’s.
@revelette1,
Looks good considering past elections, and there’s a trend now favoring democrats in many districts. Looks a new era in Texas politics.
@cicerone imposter,
I know, it is just I am a bit superstitious. I hope it continues through the mid-terms and then to presidential elections.
@cicerone imposter,
This is the same kind of boasting and lead-up's that lead to Hillary's crushing defeat.

There'll be a Democratic wave in the midterms.
Whether it will shift control of the House or Senate (and for how long if it does) I can't say.
The Republicans are going to hold the White House for at least the next 19 years however.
@oralloy,
Your own posts already clearly established there is no 20 year cycle in US history. Ain't gonna start one now. VOTE HIM OUT. LOCK HIM UP.
Dear Todd, (I'm not sure who the Todd is she is addressing this letter to.)
First, I introduced bill after bill in the Legislature to create a Ranked Choice Voting election system. They told me it couldn't be done.
Then, we launched a citizen's initiative. I was stripped of my committee position for doing so.
Next, the people of Maine voted YES at the ballot box to get ourselves some better politicians.
Then, the Legislature voted to REPEAL the people's law because they liked the politicians we had.
So, we launched a People's Veto to stop the repeal. They laughed at us because, "it's impossible."
We collected 80,000+ signatures in 88 days in subfreezing winter weather to get on the ballot (AGAIN, but who's counting?) and force implementation for the June 12th primary.
The State would STILL not implement the law. So we sued. And won.
Then the Senate GOP (and some Democrats) voted to sue to STOP implementation of Ranked Choice Voting.
Last night, the Maine State Supreme Court ruled in FAVOR of implementing RCV in June, meaning the People won!
This is what we can do when we work together for systemic, transformational change - exactly the kind of change I want to keep bringing to Maine - with you.
THANK YOU for standing strong with us on Ranked Choice Voting. It WILL be implemented in the June primaries thanks to you - and I hope I can earn your vote for Governor on June 12th.
Together, we can fix this mess and put power back into the hands of Maine People once and for all.

Comment:
The GOP can no longer put their impostor decoys up to split the democratic party's electorate.
Another state where the GOP and their corruption will be stomped out!
What part of, "We are a blue state!" don't they understand?

It's too bad the Democrats always have to try to violate the Second Amendment.
My freedom and civil rights come first. Economic considerations come second.
@coldjoint,
I calls em the way I sees em.
What has the republicans provided Americans? Donald Trump.
Higher taxes for many middle class Americans. A border wall that will cost tens of billions to construct and maintain. Wasted $$$$$$ suggested by moron Trump. It will not stop migration to the US. You can't build a wall in the open seas. That's how ignorant Donald Trump is. Besides that, it only proves Trump's bigotry. He called Mexicans "criminals and rapists." Trump is the one who illegal grabs women's crotch.
