definitely should keep him safe, make sure to add these points into the /rsg/ threads

yeah, he's going to need a shitton of money and ground game

and demoralization efforts for the other side on top of that

also add this into the Texas channel

yikes, his approval is at 42% A/32% D

+10?

it's a solid margin, but he's still vulnerable to a well-liked contestor

well, let's make sure that he gets some wacko to run against him

I feel that the accelerationist principle works to some extent as long as those people don't actually get elected, only nominated

I wish we could make a sort of shell Democratic strategist think tank company which at face value is to promote 'progressive values' but in actuality is only to ensure Republicans get elected

In any case, add the Pete Sessions situation to the <#399759501470990336> channel

Speaking of Texas, how is our boi Teddy doing?

He's safe, 14 point lead over his dem adversary

source?

Alright, good. Cruz in an ally in the Senate, we need to keep him.

Highly doubt his seat is in jeopardy

we've gotta have all bases covered

Even though its likely that Cruz will win Texas, It's a bit too early. There might be some controversies from now until November that might cost him

well yeah, same thing applies to senators from states like New York and Massachusetts

True

Gilibrand in NY could get into a freak accident and the Democratic nominee could turn out to be a pedo

Cruz could have a heart attack from delicious Texan food

kek

But one question, are both the Republican challengers to NY and Massachusetts relatively popular or relatively unknown

Also, how is the situation coming along with Ohio and Sherrod Brown? Is there another Republican challenger that can possibly unseat him? I know Mandel dropped out and the other dude didn't want to join

in NY, it's been some lady named Wendy Long who keeps running (and losing)

I never heard of her until I started doing research on past elections

any Republican who wants to win in NY has to work on getting upstate and conservative areas in Long Island to turn out

and on top of that, win over enough voters in NYC, which means they'll have to campaign pretty hard in NYC as well

NYC is small geographically speaking, so that isn't as hard as it sounds

Ok, because another factor to consider with TX is that Beto is relatlvely unknown, while Ted is very well known in TX which could aid him.

Does anyone have the link to who is racing against who in the House and Senate?

anyone?

primaries haven't happened yet

for instance, Beto is the frontrunner for Texas in the Dem primary, but it's not guaranteed

Right, but I want the link where it showed who all the possible candidates were running against each state so far. I believe it was one of the links on the midterms thread

ah

hmm

do you remember what the link looked like
