@shanedkavanaugh @Taniel Why is the blame being put on RCV? Seems like the bigger reason would be that there were roughly 800 candidates. My husband and I researched them together and it did take a couple hours. But not sure why RCV is the issue.

@tbonier Oh but we can! :) I live in OR.

"The effect is an eerie building of tension as small events lead to larger ones within an evolution of associative leaps."

"Like the plot of a mystery story, Valerie Witte’s latest poetry collection develops through a series of carefully placed, linked details. Multiple voices, weaving tales of abrasions, glances, and micro-traumas, contribute to the poems’ fragmented qualities..."

Kamala Harris on what she was thinking during the debate: "It's family TV, right? It starts with a W, here's a letter in between, and then the last letter is F."

@marcenger @tbonier Dying to see polls for MO (I realize it’s probably a lost cause but girl can hope).

[Taniel @Taniel]

The abortion rights referendum in Missouri is in strong shape in a new poll by Emerson:

It leads 58% to 30%.

Missouri is among the redder states with such a measure this year; & the GOP tried hard to knock it off the ballot. https://t.co/HFYIst75Ee

More reason to love John Goodman

[Rod (Izzy) 🇺🇸🦅 @1zzyzyx1]

This is a fantastic ad for @LucasKunceMO for Senate, featuring John Goodman, who was born and raised in Missouri, as well as Lucas.
Vote for the guy who really respects family values.
