In a sane world, Dems should be leading by high double-digits, but alas.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Americans aren’t sane
There's another article about 6 in 10 saying the country is seriously off track. It's hard to figure out the voter that says this and then is unsure who to vote for, but somehow that ends up with 8% saying "I don't know".
Don’t worry. MAGA will figure out a way to cancel future elections.
Because for almost a year now the DNC has been taking all the money Hillary/Biden/Kamala stole from state parties, back to the state parties.
Who have been using the funds to work at campaign staffing levels we usually only see for a few months before election.
That outreach is working, and no one should be surprised.
It's just the goal of neoliberlism is a neoliberal president and at most either the House or Senate. If/when they get it all, they have to make up excuses for why they're not doing what they said they'd do.
It's like when an athlete bets their team will win, but not beat the spread...
Sometimes they end up losing the game by trying to keep it close. But their motivation isn't winning games, it's hitting the sweet spot where they get a bunch of unethical money
Until Citizens United is overturned and campaign finance is heavily restricted by Congress, another Democrat administration will simply ratchet themselves further to the right and serve the same oligarchs the Republicans do. Very little will change to improve the lives of ordinary people, and once again the Republicans will use that to take full control in the following cycle.
Until Citizens United is overturned and campaign finance is heavily restricted by Congress,
No, the party runs their own primaries and they can regulate them however they want.
The DNC and any state parties can get stricter on PACs, which would get a good candidate to the general. Where they wouldn't be handcuffed by the restrictions in the primary.
You don't know what you're talking about, which wouldn't be a big deal if the misinformation you're spreading wouldn't result in lower voter turnout.
They can, but your golden boy has not.
These type of comments remind me how useless progressives are.
Let's see how the DNC snatches victory from the jaws of defeat this time.
Did you mean defeat from the jaws of victory?
Fuck yes.... posted way too early haha
Maybe, just maybe, they're so incompetent that they get the phrase wrong and accidentally win?
Why clog up .world's front page with tabloids like rawstory and dailybeast? They just repost stuff with an angry headline and Twitter links. Why not link the original source?
Here it is, for reference:
But I've brought this up many times. Mods and posters don't seem to care.
...Eh. I'm blocking this community.
I like most posts, but I'm sick of seeing tabloid outrage on the front page every day, like Reddit.
The Republicans can’t be trounced, because they control the active implementation of the oligarchs plans. They either directly implement them if in power, or they signal those directives to the Democrats, who continue to implement the same plans, but in a passive way. They work in concert in this manner, but they must be continually seen to be in a legitimate contest for the ploy to work.
Sorry guys, it’s nice that you wanna vote this time but you Did not last time and that was the end of it. It’s every single time you fuckers
