Watch trends, not single polls. One consistency across all polls since August 19: @AbdulElSayed has led in every single solitary goddam one of them.
Two new Michigan polls One has El-Sayed slightly ahead, much smaller margin than Benson in gov’s race One has El-Sayed more substantially ahead, nearly same margin as Benson Good reminder not to get worked up over any one poll (Writing this partly to remind myself!)

Duh
My take: Of ~240k Detroit votes in 2024, Trump got about 20k and Rogers about 18k. Doubling Rogers’ city total still wouldn’t offset the hole Trump created for Rogers in the suburbs and outstate. Michigan Republicans are focusing on Detroit so they can blame vote counting in Detroit when they lose.

Their racism keeps getting dumber somehow. Great work, Roop
Trump: If your name was Mohammad, I could read that from space Reporter: My name is Roop. Trump: I was referring to if you were over in Iran

The press should ask Mike Rogers why he thinks this is appropriate for anyone, especially a married US president to say. Then ask if he regrets his immediate reaction.
Donald Trump says Nicki Minaj has a “beautiful a**” in Port Huron, Michigan.

Those images from the Democrats for Mike Rogers "rally" in Pontiac, MI are truly amazing. Nothing has ever been a more obvious astroturf operation. But even most astroturf operations actually remember to pay people to show up. Looks like someone dropped the ball there.

Why did Mike Rogers marry a former staffer? Why did he go to Iraq so many times while she worked there? What was the “badly kept secret” between them? Can Mike Rogers answer these questions?

What's your first wife think of your second wife, and how is that different than the early 2000s when you both met her while she was your employee?

Big if true. @billhuizenga hasn't had a town hall in 8 years and skipped any debate this year. @tombarrettmi7 won't debate William Lawrence and he blocks people on this platform. @deboernancy skipped her candidate forum along with most West MI Republican candidates.

This is the most convoluted way I've ever heard a grown man call his own dad an asshole.
I’ve never met a Boomer who didn’t have some level of dislike for their own sons and grandsons. Even IF they say something mildly positive about them, let them talk long enough and they’ll start bitching. It’s hardwired into their generational DNA.

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.

The entire ballgame here is the way these new, young Hispanic voters decide. Given they've spent a year reading headlines about their parents being randomly deported, I'd be very nervous if I were the Texas GOP.

Mike Rogers loves war , so does his second wife Kristi.
BAIER: Was the Iran war a mistake? ROGERS: No…

What is the oldest political news story you can remember? For me it's Joe Biden being selected as Obama's VP.

You never paid somebody six figures just for the satisfaction of being able to say, "shut the fuck up and tell me what these crosstabs mean"?
Maybe the real pollsters were the friends we made along the way
