@JoeW this dude is always an outlier. He is famously the one who stalled the House proceedings as they were allowed to vote virtually.
and mainly MTG has very few fans to go with in the GOP conference

Okay. The insurrection language. That was bugging them.
@JoeW yes.
> The idea that criticizing the government of Israel is antisemitic sets a very dangerous precedent that’s been used to silence diverse voices speaking up for human rights across our nation
There is one by Marjorie too

Mississippi is deep red, as usual.
Although the governor race hasn't been called yet, it seems almost clear Reeves would hold that.

And he is missing a key point, they can do all that stuff he is suggesting to reduce the demand for abortion in the first place while keeping it legal
If they can reduce the need for it in the first place the numbers of people getting it will go down.

@JoeW Jeffries particularly was also hesitant with the use of the phrase.

It seems there has been accusations on ADL too.

Anyway, a good night for the dems. But it is conspicuous that whatever elections they have won, most of them were particular in not associating them too much with Biden. Case in point: Andy Beshear.

I am noticing a big problem with some of the polls that are showing problems for Biden. Asking a question that is related to his age but not also asking the same question about Trump.
