The article here gets a fundamental thing very wrong: @lindyli was never a “reliable party ally.”

Lindy was always a selfish, vindictive, and spoiled rich child cosplaying as a Democrat.

Sean Duffy talked a big game, but spent his 9 years in Congress lining the pockets of his buddies on Wall Street…

Now he wants to take an axe to transit funding for Main Street. Shameful.

Sigh. So much misinfo again today. No one is trying to count votes from unregistered people. This is categorically false. What’s actually happening is the GOP is trying to throw out timely cast votes from registered voters. Again.

@openrecordsnerd You can just schedule most of them through a pharmacist now, actually. Let me know if there are any specific ones you’re looking for and I’ll get you info.

@ZonaWC03 @blockedfreq Incumbent state reps in PA from both parties did very, very well, even if registration or up ballot races were against them.

Un-shockingly terrible, inaccurate, and self-serving takes from Lindy.

[Jacqui Heinrich @JacquiHeinrich]

The blame game has begun inside Harris world.

Harris-Walz surrogate @lindyli, a member of the DNC National Finance Committee and PA commissioner tells me:

- Tim Walz was a bad choice of running mate, Shapiro would have carried the blue wall states.
Li: "People are wondering tonight what would have happened had Shapiro been on the ticket. And not only in terms of Pennsylvania. He's a famously a moderate. So that would have signaled to the American people that she is not the San Francisco liberal that Trump said she was, but she went with someone actually to her left Minnesota....In the eyes of the American people, Walz was the governor who oversaw the protests,"

- Harris' positions were not clearly staked out:
Li: "She knows was a mistake was to say on The View that she couldn't think of a single thing that she would do differently from the Biden administration. That was opener for her to show Americans that she's going to get tough on the border, that she's going to take drastic measures to bring down inflation. That was her chance. And she knew that she maybe should have were two things differently when in the next 40 minutes, she said I would appoint a Republican to the cabinet. So she walked that back a little bit."

- The focus on fascism was not working:
Li: "Future Forward, they were right."

- Too many cooks in the kitchen led to muddled campaign messaging, poor staffing decisions in key battlegrounds:

Li: "She heard us. We raised serious concerns about the Pennsylvania campaign's leadership. She actually installed someone on her own people in the final weeks of the campaign, but I fear it was too late....We should have people who deeply understand, intimately understand the contours of the state rather than out-of-state operatives who move from campaign to campaign."

- Harris team was expecting a protracted legal fight - even extended hotel rooms for big donors thru Thursday. Now they're going home.

Li: "We were expecting Trump to declare victory, you know, regardless of the outcome...we probably can't win at this point just given all the factors"

[T.J. DeLuca @tjdeluca]

@mcbyrne @daveweigel You are absolutely correct.

[T.J. DeLuca @tjdeluca]

Lindy Li threatened to withhold her resignation until I printed it and brought it to her Rittenhouse building + got her a reimbursement check for her previous donations to @payoungdems - which she hadn’t even filed campaign finance reports for as Treasurer…

[David Weigel @daveweigel]

Democrats continuing elevating Li, who’s failed at every political campaign she’s ever taken on, is the 142,232th most important subplot but it has juice.

RALEIGH, N.C. (@AP) _ North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein was elected governor on Tuesday, defeating Republican Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson and maintaining Democratic leadership of the chief executive’s office in a state where Republicans have controlled the legislature.

[T.J. DeLuca @tjdeluca]

Got to chat with @marygayscanlon while greeting voters outside my polling place earlier this morning. #Delco is seeing very high turnout so far today and we can’t wait to deliver the highest % of votes for @KamalaHarris outside #Philly like we did for @JoeBiden in 2020! #Vote

[T.J. DeLuca @tjdeluca]

@djbtips @jjabbott 50,000 votes is impossible; the registration deadline in PA has passed and we have not seen registration numbers anywhere near that in the Amish communities present in Pennsylvania. Let’s stop making up wildly impossible scenarios before, during, or after Tuesday.

[T.J. DeLuca @tjdeluca]

@djbtips @jjabbott That’s extraordinarily unlikely; there are approx 92k Amish of all ages in PA, and somewhere between 3-4k Amish voted in 2020. At the most you’ll see between several hundred and a thousand new voters from the Amish community and it won’t be a difference maker in this race.

[AFL-CIO Guild @aflcioguild]

A pension is a promise, @AFLCIO. It’s time to practice what you preach and unfreeze our pensions like you’re doing for our bosses.

Pension equity NOW!

[Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta @malcolmkenyatta]

WOW 🤯 Politico just listed our race as one of the top-3 down-ballot races to watch IN THE COUNTRY!!

I’m running to flip the Auditor General’s office from 🔴🔜🔵, against the highest ranking MAGA enabler in Pennsylvania.

I’ll fight for working families, he won’t.

Private Equity was allowed to come in and steal from Delco for the last 7 years. It’s time to take back the Crozer Health System and go after those who perpetrated crimes against the people of Delaware County, Pennsylvania.

[Harold Brubaker @InqBrubaker]

Crozer Health may be placed into state control, an unprecedented move after years of financial turmoil https://t.co/PosjMOLBgn via @phillyinquirer

Yesterday, right in the middle of my remarks, a phone randomly started ringing through the loudspeakers—and I knew exactly who was on the line. 😅📞

Let’s win this for @KamalaHarris and @PADems up and down the ballot!

[Matt Royer @royermattw]

You know the biggest tell on this sign being a plant by a Republican operative:

There’s no Union Bug on that sign.

[T.J. DeLuca @tjdeluca]

Long ago, Republicans understood how government worked. After 40 years of tearing it apart, conservative thought leaders like @ambermarieduke are asking if killing @realDonaldTrump if voting 4 Kamala doesn’t work out… because violence is the only other option? Supreme stupidity.
