If you want to know why I feel so tired and why my frequent flyer miles are at an all-time high, scroll through @PeteButtigieg’s feed congratulating all the winners he’s campaigned for this year

Buttigieg’s quintessential argument over the sweep of his public life has been that there is no permanently red or blue state:
For fifteen years, my native state of Indiana has suffered under one-party rule. But today, a new generation of leaders, like J.D. Ford and Beau Bayh, showed us all what's possible when you invest in so-called red states. Finally, Democrats have broken the Republican supermajority that has gripped Indiana for years.
This is just a starting point for what Hoosier Democrats can do when they have the support to win!

.@NoahCRothman: The GOP wipeout in Texas appears to be truly generational in scope. At this hour, Democrats have won both the U.S. Senate seat and the governor’s mansion. They’ve also likely defeated incumbent Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, won the attorney general’s office, and blocked controversial candidate Bo French from becoming the next Railroad Commissioner.
Democrats appear poised not only to sweep statewide offices in the Lone Star State, they are also poised to take over the state Senate, too.

Federal law prohibits the military and federal law enforcement from interfering with elections.
OAG has contacted the Administration about the presence of National Guard troops and federal agents near voting locations in recent days.
National Guard leadership has advised that members of Joint Task Force-DC, which includes both the National Guard and federal law enforcement, have been directed not to patrol at or near any voting locations in the District.
Please report potential violations to our office at 202-727-3400 or OAGVoting@dc.gov and to the DC Board of Elections at 202-727-2194 or ogc@dcboe.org.
Every DC resident has the right to vote free of intimidation or interference.
Up and at it doing volunteer voter protection at the polls with my guy!
Happy Election Day and go vote! – at Washington, DC
““ If we have a good election, and I think we will, we have to realize that that's the opportunity to establish trust — not the ability to take it for granted,” Clinton said.”
This is the truth and every Democrat needs to internalize this.

Candidates across the country are delivering the abundance message, without ever using the word.
Bc it turns out that building more, cutting red tape, and making the government deliver is a message that works with voters in both red AND blue areas.

15 year old Javits Frimpong was fatally shot while walking to school in the Bronx, just one year after moving to America from Ghana with his father in search of a better life.
His father says Javits had been repeatedly bullied at school and believes it may have played a role in the shooting. Police are searching for three teenage suspects.

New: Amy Gleason was the acting administrator of DOGE as it worked to slash the size of the federal workforce through layoffs and incentivizing employees to quit.
Her husband got hired at an under-the-radar division of HHS just 33 days after widespread layoffs at the agency

As turnout in Texas nears 3 million votes, Hispanic turnout is now exceeding presidential levels. More Hispanics have voted than did at this point in the 2024 presidential election. What's driving this huge increase? Young voters.

Mediaite: Amy Acton’s Mother Was Convicted of Killing Kittens
New information about the criminal history of Donna Arthur, the estranged mother of Ohio Democratic nominee for governor, Amy Acton, is coming to light amid the backlash about her appearance in a Vivek Ramaswamy ad — including her conviction for animal neglect after several kittens in her care died in a hot car

MORE: Calley Means' resignation comes after a Kennedy/White House meeting on food policy -- aimed at getting MAHA priorities back on track -- was rescheduled earlier this week.
“That was the straw that broke the camel’s back,” said an administration official, who cited “a fallout of support for MAHA initiatives at the White House.”
NEW: Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is taking another run at defining ultraprocessed foods, a longtime target of his MAHA movement.
Talks are actively underway, multiple administration officials told me and @Marcia_Brown9, and the secretary will meet with senior White House officials next week about the policy.

White House's top MAHA policy official — and the RFK adviser who initially linked him up with Trump — is quitting two weeks before the midterms
I am resigning from the White House with tremendous respect for President Trump and Bobby Kennedy.
They laid out a vision of combatting the entrenched, dark forces in DC that profit from Americans getting sick.
More policy and cultural change has happened around these goals in the past 2 years than any time in history - and I know this movement is just getting started.
It was an honor to advocate for MAHA moms in the administration and steer policies like Dietary Guidelines reform, psychedelic reform, removing soda from SNAP, removing food dyes, GRAS reform, and overhauling government food procurement.
I'm all for projects that help DC become more of a destination but this effort cuts off a great public space that DC and area residents use for picnics, events, exercise, affordable golf, you name it. Ppl don't want this.
New: Trump says that East Potomac Golf Course will close on Nov 15 for the redesign by Tom Fazio.
“Restoration work will begin on the Fazio Design on November 15th, when the old Course will be closed to play. The new Course will be opened in approximately 15 months.”
This comes as there is a heated legal dispute right now about whether the government can redesign the course.

At what point do elected officials start treating the growing wealth gap between generations as a problem that demands policy solutions? Every few months, new data shows young Americans falling further behind. We talk about it, shrug, and move on...
