@LibertasWins @marcmolinaro @JoshRileyUE This map shows a shift in margin for the Presidential race. It does not show any information about other races on the ballot. Stop spreading misinformation.

@DanWuori When I was expecting my then 3 year old would put his face right up to my bump and scream “I love you baby!” As loud as he could. Good prep for life in our household.

I don’t think any woman can win against a misogynist.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

I cannot wrap my head around this. I simply can’t. There’s no excuses this time. We all know who he is.

It's really sad that people outside America can't be Christians since they can't vote for the right candidate for president 😔

Let’s throw off everyone’s sleep schedule then hold a contentious election. Seems like a great idea.

@TrueConsolation My grandmother was a 1950’s housewife with two kids by 21. She had an outhouse when she first got married. An outhouse. She ran the pig farm and raised the babies while my grandfather went to school and worked. She was so glad to finally move to a city.

Shout out to my neighbors who offer a platter of broccoli to all the kids and then follow up with a giant handfulof candy “Oh! Were you wanting this?!”

Also shout out to my kids who enjoyed their broccoli.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@taylorsschumann We do this once they get about 2/3 of the way through the candy. Our neighborhood is very generous with the candy. Kids couldn’t fit all their candy in their buckets last night.

@smalltown_wife I check my husband’s location when I’m home the kids, and they’re bouncing off the walls and I need to know how much longer I need to hold it together before he gets home with take out.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@DavidBartram_ #7 is amazing.

My not-on-Twitter husband votes #2.

We are a household divided.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@Redoubters Yeah, I don’t post about my specific votes online except to say it won’t be for Trump. I guess I’m talking about in person conversations I’ve had with people in my state.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@Redoubters My state is solidly blue. It’s gonna go for Kamala. A third party vote for a candidate that has been vocal about Israel’s war in Gaza can be a strategic way to voice dissent. The same logic doesn’t work in a swing state.

@JStein_WaPo @JamesSurowiecki It’s hard to describe how this would have changed the last decade of a couple of my family members’ lives. The Medicare covered nursing home was not great. No one wanted to be there, but Medicare didn’t leave a choice.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@emilykmay Honestly, if my husband made this joke, I’d laugh pretty hard. But we’re also pretty equal partners in care taking and household labor.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@taylorsschumann I saw one on the road when all the students moved back to town and I laughed out loud. How can such a ridiculous vehicle exist?

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@uzoart Once a new neighbor dropped off banana bread. I’m allergic to bananas, my husband has celiac, and my kid was allergic to eggs. We just thanked them then felt guilty putting it in the compost.

[Heather Hocking @hocking_heather]

@taylorsschumann And keep some pedialyte popsicles in the freezer!

@marcmolinaro @JoshRileyUE One person does not represent a whole. Most immigrants are hard working, decent people who are fleeing war and violence. They boost our economy and strengthen our communities. Stop dealing in racist rhetoric because what you say on Twitter has real world consequences.
