Congratulations to HIT candidates Keisha Lance Bottoms and Mo Ivory on their primary victories in Georgia, and to Christian Menefee on his historic path to Congress representing Texas’ 18th Congressional District as the youngest member of the delegation.

Though Everton Blair Jr.’s race did not end in a win, his campaign made clear he is a leader to watch in the years ahead, building strong momentum and a powerful coalition across Georgia.

Polling I have done at @HITStrat shows these policies doesn't just win over the base, but they pull strong support from unlikely places! So the coalition is already there, but democrats keep choosing condescension and moderation over connection. https://t.co/kp5inhUINn

[Ashley Aylward @aylwardashleym]

A thread on why this is spot on. The Democratic Party doesn't have a messaging problem. It has a listening problem and voters haven't been quiet, they've been screaming yet Democrats just keep turning up the volume instead of tuning in. https://t.co/ATi28a9bqV

🚨New poll alert. Former Representative @CoriBush and Wesley Bell are statistically tied for MO-1 District. Bush leads in overall favorability, 52% vs. 45%.

Worth noting that District Democrats view AIPAC, who was Bell's major 2024 backer, at 40% unfavorable. They also view ICE at 86% unfavorable — a contrast worth noting for a congressman who voted to thank ICE for "protecting the homeland."
