This author and blogger cannot recall the tension and emotions that are being felt around the upcoming Midterm Elections of 2022 ever being quite as intense in past cycles.
It could be a poor memory, or seeing the past with rose colored glasses!
But literally, EVERY Senate race, EVERY House race, and EVERY Gubernatorial race is so significant for the future of American democracy, which is on the verge of being lost to the MAGA Republicans and Donald Trump!
With only about six vote margin in the House of Representatives, and an evenly split US Senate for only the 4th time in American history, and with Governors having tremendous power and influence on an issue such as abortion rights, every citizen needs to vote!
Last night’s debate in Pennsylvania leaves one worried about the performance of John Fetterman, as it could be the Senate election that decides Senate control in the 118th Congress. But also, the Georgia race of Raphael Warnock; the Ohio race of Tim Ryan; the Wisconsin race of Mandela Barnes; the North Carolina race of Cheri Beasley; the Florida race of Val Demings; the New Hampshire race of Maggie Hassan; the Nevada race of Catherine Cortez Masto; the Arizona race of Mark Kelly; and the Iowa race of Michael Franken, are all crucial.
And Governorship races, particularly in Michigan with Gretchen Whitmer; in Arizona with Katie Hobbs; in Florida with Charlie Crist; in Texas with Beto O’Rourke, are all significant for the future!

With the ReThugs continuing to use violent rhetoric, I’m not surprised about something like this happening.
Suspect is in custody. He’s a QAnon type nut.
Elon Musk is now in charge of Twitter and may let Trump back on the platform.
Glenn Youngkin needs to apologize for his rude remarks about the attack.

Princess Leia, clearly Glenn Youngkin is a disgrace in every way imaginable, and is only interested in the Presidency, nothing else! His true character showed through with this horrendous reaction! 🙁
