Oh welp

I have read (per Indivisible) that it false and someone misreported a statement of his

Yeah voting is not and should not be the end of political action. If you do nothing else, the only people pressuring said politician are the powers that be

Voting sets the stage of who you're fighting against

How things are made has always impacted how we see the quality of an image. The end result is not what people care about it. Art has never been an objective thing and does not live in a vacuum. Any method that is lazily done becomes viewed as poor quality no matter the medium

And in this case it's extra strong with all the other effects from AI get associated with it as well. So all the job loss, pollution from diesel backup generators, higher energy usage, control of our lives from tech companies, etc.

He'll very likely be voted leader, baring him like pulling a Haley Stevens or something similarly insane (which he's likely smart enough to not do)

A shame for the Texas state senate, but state house still looks like it can still flip. In any case, all a significant shift even if neither flips considering the hope was to just narrow the margins a bit not to get close to a flip

Yep, it is just shy of 99% in the US. For some specific farm animal it's even upwards of 99.9%

No, but he's up for re-election in 2028. I do think a primary of him has a real chance given even many house dems are quite pissed at him

Sure, but many of those aren't necessary to flip. For something more concrete Erin Reed's has put Texas House District 14 as a potential tipping point. It was R+21 in the past, it's currently sitting at D+0.5 with >99% of the vote in

You may want to update your priors, the Texas state house and state senate actually are looking looking like they might flip. Some deep red state house and senate districts have flipped already

The shift towards Talarico was insane and is moving things down ballot

Also for as much as this article claims it was "controversial", the current margin reported is 73.3% in favor to 26.7% against
