The 2026 midterms are now less than 2 months away, and we are officially in election season. Despite substantial republican redistricting, it seems fairly certain that Democrats will take back the house for the first time since 2020. On the other hand, in the Senate, it is much harder to predict who will win. While

During the Trump era, Democrats have held the House of Representatives for only two consecutive terms, from 2019 to 2023. In both terms, they made the decision to impeach Trump, which did not bear fruit in the senate either time. Now, if current polling and historical trends are any indication, the dems seem poised to

As the midterm elections get closer, we will start to see much more visibility on specific candidates and states. The Democrats need to pick up 4 senate seats to regain control of the Senate, and this endeavor has so far been chaotic, to say the least. In Maine, Democratic nominee Graham Platner dropped out due

Just a few years ago, Katie Porter seemed like a rising star in the Democratic Party. She had won three consecutive competitive US House elections in the moderate Orange County while still unabashedly championing progressive policies throughout her tenure. As a result, in 2024, she took what was seemingly the next step in any politician’s

Much has been said about President Trump’s actions in relation to the Iran War. While Democrats have obviously condemned the war, the more interesting reactions are the ones of Trump’s republican supporters. While the majority of prominent conservative politicians and officials, like Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Speaker of the House

Throughout my previous posts, I have discussed extensively about the ideological divides inside political parties. On the Democrat’s side, there is a growing divide between firebrand progressives who make headlines for constantly opposing Trump, and more grounded, moderate candidates who tend to focus on so-called “kitchen table issues”. On the Republicans side, more and more

In 2008, Barack Obama defeated John McCain to become President, winning 28 states and 365 votes in what is still the largest landslide of the 21st century. Not only did Obama run up margins in traditional Democratic strongholds and capture swing states, but he also found himself within striking distance of McCain in multiple Republican

The democrats had a great night this election day. While the biggest of the night from the media was Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s win in the New York Mayoral Race, defeating former governor Andrew Cuomo in a campaign largely defined by affordability, it wasn’t actually the biggest story of the night. For example, Democrats won
