💥National Elections Committee turns down Likud request.
💥Shas and Jewish Power join the Likud request for an extension. Eisenkot's Yashar party opposes any extension of voting hours saying "their request is aimed at laying the groundwork for claims against the election's legitimacy."

NEWS — Alaska election officials asked a federal judge to dismiss the Justice Department’s lawsuit seeking to block certification of the state’s Senate results if Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan loses. The judge expedited the case ahead of the Nov. 3 election.

Word
From Matt Towery “As we look at early voting it is becoming clear that a certain portion of the GOP base is not planning on voting. The GOP message in terms of paid ads has failed to explain why action on Iran was needed and what the consequences of a nuclear Iran would be. It is the “elephant in the room” that must be addressed big time as the closing message. We have too many polls in too many states with Democrats leading and the GOP is running out of time.”

Georgia’s electorate is getting whiter as high-propensity voters turn out late. But Black voters’ turnout advantage over White voters among low-propensity voters keeps growing. The GOP can only narrow the gap so much without activating low or medium propensity White voters.

I struggled to find locals willing to put their name behind any kind of statement of support for Marshall. Partially a function of small-town politeness, but there is clearly something else going on too. Much more here (gift link): kansascity.com/opinion/opn-c…

Retired local banker who supported Marshall in 2016 for Congress and 2020 for Senate: “I was Roger's loan officer. I won't vote for him. He gives Trump free rein every time. I voted for him to represent Kansas, not Trump.”

The mayor of Great Bend: “Look, it’s quite obvious he doesn’t live here anymore. He lives in Florida. He has a little hunting lodge south of Great Bend in Stafford County. And I think that’s an issue for people ... He’s become disconnected with a lot of people around here.”

NEW: I spent 3 days last week in Roger Marshall's longtime home of Great Bend. I talked to women whose babies he delivered, people who've known him 30 years, Dems, Republicans, a guy Marshall once tried to talk into buying a bird dog from his litter. (cont'd)

If Democrats take back the Senate Chris Coons is in line to chair Foreign Relations right? Not bad for a guy who was supposed to be the sacrificial lamb against Mike Castle.

An ad suggesting the candidate without a Bachelor's degree (but who managed to become state Senate President) lacks the "tools" to be a Senator is not something I've seen before.
Bill Green’s latest ad for Susan Collins made my jaw drop. A pathetic end to both of their careers. Mainers will reject these despicable attacks next Tuesday.

VA-05 is one of the 14 (or so) early reporting House districts that should give us a very clear sense of where the night is heading. If Republicans are losing most of the districts that Trump won by a double-digit margin in 2024, they could be in for quite a bloodbath nationally
News: the NRCC is making its first coordinated buy with Rep John McGuire (R) in #VA05 This is a Trump+12 seat where McGuire faces ex-Rep Tom Perriello (D)

Obviously, this could just mean a bigger Election Day win for the GOP. But if you get a bluer environment than 2025 in NJ, one wonders if Jeff Van Drew is one of the surprise losers.

Rep. Norman is right and this is why I am urging all god-fearing MAGA patriots to write-in Ralph Norman for Senate. Darline Graham is anti-MAGA and anti-MAHA. Time to send a true American patriot to the senate
Some pretty brutal comments from GOP Rep. Ralph Norman about Darline Graham, to @mkraju -->
