funny thing is GOP and Libertarians together come up 2 votes shy of Malone.
this is about half the turnout of a regular general election. these are high propensity voters
Trump didn’t actually win pa in November.

You’re too in-love with your position and too stuck with your special interests commitments to fathom the damage that your corruption is doing

@kenmartin.bsky.social and @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social said they are investing resources in all local and state elections to get folks elected and this proves it to me so I'm donating now
Cautiously optimistic so started
Now this is a state seat not a US House seat, correct?
Crossing fingers FL special elections have similar results in April.
Citizens are mad at Trump and his GOP suckups cutting Social Security, FEMA, Medicaide, Medicare, the Post Office, National Weather Services (NOAA), Parks, VA services, the Dept of Education, USAID, VOA, and free and fair elections,

Repubs usually get a +15.4% vote share in this district and they lost it.
This was not supposed to happen!
Democrats actually managed to swing a decent red district.
Repubs flipped their votes.
Whenever a democrat runs here the ceiling is less than 40% of the vote.
No democrat has one this seat in the last 12 years. This is monumentous.
This is a miracle.
