aspiring for a competent left. the answer is organising, it always has been.

Where is the Democratic Tea Party revolt in Senate primaries?

The following need replacing:

NJ: Cory Booker, 56, AIPAC-endorsed
DE: Chris Coons, 62, AIPAC guest speaker
CO: John Hickenlooper, 73, AIPAC-endorsed
RI: Jack Reed, 75, AIPAC-funded
VA: Mark Warner, 70, AIPAC-endorsed

Every election from 1980-2020 had a Clinton, Biden or Bush on a major party ticket. 2024 broke the chain.

[Niles Francis @NilesGApol]

2028 will be the first election in which none of these people (+Trump) are on a ticket in some way since 1988

[hindsight @hindsight_apple]

my feeling is that this is the direct consequence of the greens and polanski vacating the arena since g&d. i haven't heard a new policy, membership announcement or campaign recently. it's a good lesson to never do that again and i hope they reverse course after makerfield.

@labourball terrible idea to have starmer and jones so prominent

@simonbiddle it was widely used by kids 10-15 years ago too

@missrobinson @simonbiddle opposing, playing, fighting, competing

@rhys_2024 Pretty simple: Greens have been dead silent since G&D

@LabJacobite and restore are now splitting reform's vote. so an overall positive then?

@CoryBooker you are a politician not a self help guru

Worst failure of the American left in 2026:

Bonus reason I hope Markey wins: ruin Moulton's career like it did for Joe Kennedy

[Politics & Poll Tracker 📡 @PollTracker2024]

CBS News/AP: Rep. Seth Moulton to take on Sen. Ed Markey in Massachusetts Democratic Senate primary

"Markey won nearly 73% of the delegates' support, while Moulton won nearly 27% of the vote. Massachusetts Democratic Party rules require statewide candidates to get at least 15% of delegate support to appear on primary ballots."

Why it won't be Pete:
1. 2028 Dem Primary voters will want a principled fighter, not a focus-grouped triangulator
2. No electoral history except Mayor of a small city in a state he doesn't live in
3. No support among black voters
4. Association with Biden administration may hurt

[ettingermentum @ettingermentum]

I do not believe in Pete here at all. Harris Newsom and AOC all have very clear roles but he’s so clearly a stand-in for “young articulate white center-leftist” that can be filled incredibly easily by people far more electorally accomplished than him.

@neeratanden learned no lessons from the last 3 presidential elections

Lib Moderates' best plan to regain control of the party

[Simon Banks @SimonBanksHB]

The revenge of the @Liberalaus moderates?

Under this Redbridge poll, the only survivors would be:
Brerowra - Leeser
Cook - Kennedy
Mitchell - Hawke
Flinders - McKenzie
Goldstein - Wilson
Wannon - Tehan

Plus regain Bradfield, Aston, Deakin and Menzies

losing to hannah spencer means reform will only run plumbers from now on

[Reform UK @reformparty_uk]

Makerfield was Andy Burnham’s back up plan.

For Robert Kenyon, it’s his home.

This battle will be David Vs Goliath.
