The States : red states in a race to the bottom

Virginia:

The poll from Christopher Newport University's Wason Center tested the gubernatorial race between Spanberger, a Democrat, and Lieutenant Governor Winsome Earle-Sears, a Republican; the lieutenant governor race between Hashmi, a Democrat, and Republican John Reid; and the attorney general race between incumbent Republican Jason Miyares and former Democratic legislator Jay Jones.

At the top of the ticket, Spanberger held a 12-point lead over Earle-Sears (52 percent to 40 percent), with 8 percent remaining undecided. Hashmi led Reid by 11 points (48 percent to 37 percent), with 15 percent undecided, according to the survey. The attorney general race was closer. Jones led by only seven points (48 percent to 41 percent), with 12 percent of respondents undecided.

Maine:

The internal poll from the Public Policy Polling and Normington Petts found Kleban leading Collins by nine points on the initial ballot (44 percent to 35 percent) and eight points on an informed ballot (46 percent to 38 percent). A significant number of respondents said they were still undecided about who they would support: 21 percent on the initial ballot and 16 percent on the informed ballot.

The poll also found that the political environment in the Pine Tree State is a "warning sign" for Collins, as only 43 percent of residents are giving President Donald Trump positive marks during his second term, and 53 percent disapprove of his job performance.

Vermont? u up?

I'm honestly shocked they got PA. They should add MD, DE, DC, and if we can get the sweep later this year VA.

Create a Health Care Schengen Area to prepare for applying for Canadian provincehood.
 
Would MN benefit from something like this (assuming any of its MAGA infested neighbors could get their shit together) or will it survive for now working independently?

What does touching have to do with it? Maine's not touching another member of the northeast alliance.

I was making some assumptions. Having states that share a border would help contain spread of disease as more people would interact with another more frequently. I know Indiana and Ohio aren't going to give a flying F about this. Similar to the Dakotas and Iowa for Minnesota. But, yes, congruency is likely unnecessary.

In terms of fundraising among declared candidates, they currently have a three-way race between Mike Cox, Aric Nesbitt, and John James.

Cox has been off the scene long enough to avoid MAGAt stench and he could probably win. Nesbitt is an asshole and no suburbanite with a brain or a heart would vote for him. John James is a useful idiot they have tried to leverage to claim they aren't racist.

Seen it my whole life. So frustrating to watch the pendulum swing. Grew up under Blanchard. Too young to understand how Engler won but watched him and the GOP privatize the state, do nothing for the stagnant economy, and set up some sweetheart deals before leaving office.

Voted for Granholm because I saw the sh*t Engler did and didn't like it. Moved away in her second term and was p*ssed that she got saddled with the Republican Senate that stymied her every move.

Hated that Rick Snyder continued the "run the state like a business" that Engler started because he continued to run it like a private equity, privatizing more shit for himself.

Granholm only won because of Snyders catastrophic fuck ups, yet everyone in the state continued to vote for R'a for house and senate like it would magically change course after decades of control. Was so happy when the state went completely blue in 2022. Was finally looking to move home.

And then the fickle rubes went "welp, things didnt magically change overnight in these last two years, might as well go back to the shit we know." 🤮🤬
 
No one is as bad as the Florida Dems. They took a long purple state that was routinely a 2 point or less margin and turned it into Florabama. Ran a Republican as their Democratic governor nominee and looked confused when he lost by 20.
