Initial thoughts in no particular order about Election 2026, both macro and micro, now that we know how the story ends.
1) 10 of last 11 elections (2012 the exception), the WH or a chamber has changed parties. This is unprecedented – Americans keep voting for political change.
Every. Vote. Matters. #MSSEN

Only the Judiciary Committee nerds will truly appreciate the fact that Scott Colom is only a Senate candidate because Cindy Hyde-Smith did not return a blue slip on his District Court nomination.

Keisha Lance Bottoms: Georgia, we are a state with a rich legacy. We are the home of Congressman John Lewis, who reminded us that democracy is an act, and each generation must do its part to protect it. We are the home of President Jimmy Carter, who said the most powerful title is that of citizen. We are the home of Coretta Scott King, who said there comes a time when time itself is ready for a change. Well, Georgia, that time is now—and no wannabe dictator will stop our momentum.

BREAKING: Texas Republicans announce they will “Pass on Paxton”:
“I truly believe that he is the most corrupt politician Texas has ever seen.”
“To send Ken Paxton to the United States Senate is adding another gator to the swamp.”
“James Talarico is by far — without a doubt — the best person in the race for the US Senate.”

Less than a week from the November 3 midterm election in Mississippi and Sarah Adlakha, the candidate who ran against U.S. Senator @cindyhydesmith in the Republican Primary in March and was only able to muster 19%, is now appearing in an anti-Hyde-Smith ad funded by Government That Works PAC, the same PAC that was been pushing $1.8 million in pro-Democrat @scott_colom ads.
Adlakha announced on Facebook in August that she has now moved to Alabama (link: facebook.com/share/p/1DXcdYS…)

Nashville Scene: State Sen. Brent Taylor (R-Memphis) has sent unsolicited nude photos as recently as 2021. He dismisses his past sexual advances as “youthful indiscretions” that marked his 30-year marriage.
Multiple sources say they had received or seen nude photos from Taylor, who is running for U.S. Congress in Tennessee’s 9th Congressional District.
Taylor acknowledged to the Scene that he had sent nude photos in the past but dismissed them as mistakes that have since been forgiven by his wife Kimberly.
