LOL. I think my hands are now permanently stained from the last round of postcards for various VA races.
How many of these exact same posts are you going to make per day? Trying to decide if I really want to keep following you or not. This ain't PBS man, I don't really want a non-stop pledge drive ya know?
Understood. I generally post these once per day. I understand they can be annoying, which is why I nearly always include either the #Blue25 or #Blue26 hashtag (I forgot to this time). If you want to keep following me for heatlhcare stuff but don't like the fundraising links, mute those hashtags.
Thanks! That is very helpful π
Why this term " overperform"? To me it seems to imply they won't be able to keep it going. There must be a better word for it?
It just means that on average they've received 16% more of the vote in special elections than they "should" have compared to how Kamala Harris performed vs. Donald Trump last November. It doesn't necessarily mean that they won, but getting 46% in a district where she only received 30% is HUGE.
