In Harris County, TX, the only drop box is in downtown. This is Greg Abbott's supressive tactic. Early voting is really the best option here by a mile. I did recently review the early voting locations and there are FEWER of them this cycle, especially in my part of town.

Text reads: ‘Trump’s administration is trying to restrict federal funding for transgender young people’s care. Connecticut is fighting that rule in court, while state lawmakers examine a hospital deal that limits care for trans youth. Families deserve medical decisions guided by care, not political pressure, and public decisions made with accountability.’

“The 2026 #DemocracyForAll Project survey provides a key insight into how to effectively counter the push toward authoritarianism wrapped up in the Christian nationalist version of democracy.”

KF Research Fellow @andrew-whitehead.bsky.social analyzes the latest data from the report.

Americans’ dissatisfaction with democracy does not necessarily mean they have given up on it.

More than 23,000 Americans told the @kettering.org - @gallup.com #DemocracyForAll Project how democracy is working for them and what they believe could make it better.

The @kettering.org - @gallup.com #DemocracyForAll Project offers an unusually broad national view of those questions. Andrew Thompson, asst professor of political science at the University of Pennsylvania, helps make sense of what those divisions can tell us about how Americans experience democracy.

Is social media destroying democracy?

@dwj.eurosky.social takes a closer look at Kettering-Gallup #DemocracyForAll project data to examine what’s really driving declining support for democratic norms among heavy social media users.
Social Media and Democracy: Are Platforms the Problem or Their Users?
Social media may not be the real threat to democracy—at least not by itself. Kettering-Gallup data points to youth disaffection, gender, and platform habits.
