Add this to the list of Democratic worries ahead of the midterms: Younger voters — a cornerstone of the party’s electoral coalition — make up a smaller share of early and absentee voters so far than they did in 2020. More than 15 million voters have already cast their midterm ballots, according to the United States Elections Project. But young voters have contributed to a smaller fraction of that turnout compared to this time two years ago, according to interviews and a POLITICO analysis of voter data. The party has had high hopes that younger voters motivated by the Supreme Court’s scuttling of abortion rights and President Joe Biden’s cancellation of some student debt would turn out in force — and help them to defy losses that the party in power typically suffers in midterm elections. They could still show up to the polls on Election Day. But their disappearance from the ranks of early voters so far puts Democrats at a disadvantage, because the party still has to chase their votes instead of banking them ahead of Nov. 8.

lol: In North Carolina, which has a close U.S. Senate race and a set of state legislative races that could determine whether abortion remains legal in the state, the median age of voters who cast ballots through Oct. 26 was 66, according to state data. Voters aged 30 and younger account for just 5.4 percent of ballots cast so far, compared to 16.5 percent of those who voted early or absentee in 2020. Republicans’ share of the early vote is also slightly higher now than it was at the same time two years ago.

has anyone heard from gene hackman fan? Someone allegedly broke into the Pelosi house and attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer while shouting "where's Nancy?" doctors are saying he's gonna fully recover, so the story is either fishy or a goon project How do you beat an 82 year old alcoholic with a hammer and not do lasting damage? Was Paul just that hopped up on adrenochrome? Does his phylactery give him +5 against blunt damage?

Ah, yes. Doing absolutely nothing about abortion except fundraising and crying about Manchin being a big ol' meanie and then dangling $20k in front of people along with a VOTE message, only to let them see it being ripped away by appointed chudges (who were confirmed in bipartisan votes) right before the election. Truly a way to make people feel like their vote means anything at all.

It's pretty funny that an octogenarian drunkard decided to take on a home intruder with a hammer. Really speaks to the way these people view themselves. Just lock yourself in a room and call your taxpayer funded armed servants.

TenementFunster posted:it says a lot about how much establish dems don't realize calls for political violence on the maga right aren't just kayfabe that the nine-figure-rich, octogenarian spouse of the speaker of the house doesn't have 24-hour security or at least a loving gun. brother, fox news and worse have been stirring these people up for decades. january 6th alone should have been enough of a wakeup call that thousands of freaks out there want to literally kill you. I genuinely wonder about why this is. What is it about the dems that makes them believe that the right is just like them, lacking a political project and only pretending to believe in things in order to play the game of politics for money? This isn't something new, you can point to examples of democrats not understanding that their political opponents are in it to win because they have actual deeply-held beliefs that they won't compromise on all the way back to Kennedy (who hosed around and found out). What is it that makes them refuse to learn the lesson? The closest working theory I have is that the truth is just too horrible for them to accept but that seems like it would take both shame and self-awareness and I just can't get to the point to where I believe they have either.

The takeaway was always going to be that the Party needs to move to the center though. Even as Pelosi's husband gets his head stapled beck together the dem leadership will be shrieking about how we need to just find more common ground with our misunderstood and well meaning Republican countrymen.
