2025 US House special elections

I spent the last two Saturdays sending letters to Wisconsin Dems. Not claiming it had any impact, but what if it did? Maybe every small act does count.
Annnnd, they’re announcing her win on the news as I type this.

I think at this point anything anyone can do to motivate people to get out and vote is a good thing. NYT is also reporting that voter turnout was exceptionally high in WI for an off-year election, so it looks like some folks are waking up now.

I know it would have been a huge and glorious FU to the Trusk Administration and to MAGA if the Democrats had won either or both FL House seats. BUT, in my eyes the bigger victory is the Wisconsin Supreme Court race.

Huh, I saw headlines saying the Democrats won in Florida, in the newsfeed on my computer at work. I never follow up on those, because they open in Edge, but maybe I should have?

Probably misread them is my guess

I think they won a state house election in a rather red area. IIRC.

That (state house election win) was in Pennsylvania on March 25.

However, there was a kind of win for Democrats in Florida:

Escambia County turned blue for the first time in decades. However, that’s only part of the congressional district, and the district as a whole was red as usual.

Ah, thanks for that. I knew it was something like that.
