@TheGOPRedneck When the only goal is owning the libs, it's hard to get anything accomplished for your constituents. Willing to bet gerrymandering has something to do with how he's kept his job for so long.

@nickroberts317 Really appreciate all your work on the council getting the mountain construction added to the 2026 budget. Really going to be a highlight for the city.

Clark County Election Board reverses course, votes 2-1 not to count Jeffersonville High School ballots in Sen. Chris Garten’s SD45 race, a source at the meeting tells Indy Politics. Garten leads by 297. Dems vow recount or contest.

@TMROJ Fair point

Asked Grok what would happen if we spent money on people instead of campaigns.

Very rough numbers, based on some reports of totals spent on advertising in the midterms.

Indiana Democrats: Who is the ideal Senate/Governor ticket for 2028?

In line with Hinojosa/Talarico and Bottoms/Ossoff.

Assume Beau is true to his word and doesn’t run.

@JohnPSchmitz1 @jstewartIndy Any favorites?

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

Flat out insane.

Newly elected Rep. Anthony Constantino tells me Diddy was a “job creator” who helped make New York exciting

“We gotta look at making New York exciting again. We can’t just keep losing our excitement.”

@chasing_fiction First mention for Wilburn. She seems great.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@IBJDPCNT644 @FWill321 How do you really feel? Ha

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@TylerBower48533 Certainly possible. He'd love a national stage. He'd live on NewsMax I'm sure. The wackos are going to primary Todd for sure.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@JarreDuhh It seems like so few people in Carson's district (where I live) actually like Carson; he's just an institution at this point and hard to beat.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@haines50614 Beau waiting until 2030 makes some sense. Stick to his word and fulfill his term. Show he can run the office well, clean up corruption, etc. Also, maybe see who the next Indy mayor is (assuming it's a dem, but could go any way especially if the Lincoln Party jumps in).

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@FWill321 A little salty about him migrating north.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@xbox420pomnijob Love Fady.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@HumphreyCPA Agree. Run the SoS well and then take on the worse of the two Indiana senators.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@AnnotatedToA He'd get my vote.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@TylerBower48533 Is there a world where Beckwith doesn't run for Governor, even if he has to primary Braun? Dude's ego is massive.

[Joe Garrison @JoeGGarrison]

@haines50614 Sackbun is a rising star for sure.
