There are some instances that still run. Not exactly sure how, to be honest. The main two I know about that still work are
xcancel.com (what I linked in the body) and nitter.poast.org

If you have any interest in helping make that possible, you can help some letters to increase Alaska turnount (focused on defending the Alaska house seat for dems, so still important even if it doesn’t flip for president)
For those anxious about that possibility, we can help move the needle
Make sure to register to vote. Deadlines are fast approaching in many states
Find opportunities to volunteer for dems around you and online
Write letters to voters in swing states or in competitive downballot races
I linked it in the post body with a twitter mirror
The yes on Measure J campaign is more cash strapped compared to the mostly meat industry funded opposition. They are more of a grassroots campaign. If you have the means, they can use donations or volunteers to help out
And the “…” wasn’t even me editing the headline, that was in the original headline
It didn’t say “have to” as in you are legally obligated to. It says why “it’s best to” and explains why 3rd parties act as spoilers in the first past the post system and how voting for a 3rd party can lead to the exact opposite person winning than who you want
Well some of the criticism is from Republicans too
Not OP, but while it’s obviously not a swing for president, it’s worth reminding that down ballot races matter everywhere. New York is a good part of the reason why republicans got a narrow majority in the house in 2022 and can be a part of how we flip it back
Ironically, if you do that with Alaska, you’d think it’s already blue. Here’s alaska in 2016
Keep in mind that there have only been 3 polls in Alaska since Biden dropped out and one of those was a republican sponsored one
Yes it’s more likely than not that Trump wins alaska, but data is limited. It’s still a low but not a zero percent chance he doesn’t. Regardless of this cycle, it keeps moving closer each election and certainly could be a competitive state in the future for president
Oops should be fixed now
AOC held an amoung us stream in 2020 that got over 400 thousand viewers. That was the third most concurrent views ever on a single Twitch stream at the time

ME-02 was just a small example. The ME-02 I believe was on the presidential race (Maine like Nebraska splits their electoral votes). The link was about the congressional race. To be fair, I mostly just remember it because they ran an ad that accidentally stated with “Dear Virginia” in Maine. Trump has also been relying more on PACs for his campaign to be fair as he’s been outsourcing a lot more. Regardless, they’ve also done things like as another example pull money out of New Hampshire which they thought they, while probably not winning, could at least narrow margins on earlier with Biden in
Normally, I’d agree with that about debating. However, even other republicans were earlier urging trump to debate again and he still declined
Oh oops, didn’t see the date was a bit ago. I saw it linked elsewhere online first and didn’t catch that it was from june when reading the article
That is missing my point about their spending changes. Districts and states are hardly isolated from each other. The movments within one tends to correlate well with others. If there’s slipage for republicans in fairly red ME-2, it bodes well for other states
Republicans are more resource limited right now compared to dems. If think they need to allocate money away from those swing states into ME-2 (which running up the score in doesn’t particularly matter), what does that say about how they view the race?
Not to say they couldn’t be just allocating poorly and making poor choices, but in that case then this whole discussion is moot about reading into their decisions as to not to debate
That doesn’t line up as how the Republican campaign has been acting. For instance, they’ve started spending in areas like ME-2 which has been pretty strongly Republican for a while
Down ballot they’re republicans are uping spending in places that should be theoretically solidly red like Nebraska (senate race) and Indiana (governor race)
How I’d read it has more to do with how Trump’s been having more obvious mental decline lately. A second debate would really show that
Also should mention thay they also have many other districts and swing states on that site too
