the biggest blind spot in mainstream politics media was black organizing across the south
The Dem inroads in the South are legitimately shocking. Huge wins in North Carolina and Georgia, South Carolina and Texas likely to flip, House seats deep in Appalachia swinging hard toward Dems.
This is big: Dems just flipped North Carolina's 11th district.
This is in Western NC, in Appalachia, there's Ashville but also lots of rural territory there, Trump won it by 10 points. It's also where Trump lied his ass off about Biden's disaster response.
Jamie Ager is on track to win it by 20!

@rickhasen.bsky.social is spot-on here.
I'll be writing more about this later, but the fact that there are no ICE (or other armed) federal agents at the polls and no federal takeover of elections is not because we are "lucky" or our system is "strong:" it took a ton of hard work from lawyers, election administrators and civil society.

Good short thread. I think it’s spot on!
As a general note, I think one lesson Dems should have learned is that there's nothing to be gained in being slow & methodical. The way to succeed in this media environment is to do *everything at once, all the time*. Always be acting, setting the agenda, dictating the news cycle. Move, move, move.
