8. Dems here are furious and highly motivated

(as they are everywhere), and many independents who took a flyer on the Pedo in 2024 have extreme buyer’s remorse (as they do everywhere).

I am never terribly confident leading up to elections, but I’d say we do have a reasonable chance of doing well this cycle. The fact that the current SoS and Asst. SoS are (though conservative) not crooks makes a favorable outcome more likely.

All that said, we’re all on guard for Repukes to pull whatever bullshit they think they can get away with. So glad I voted early, because I didn’t want to have to worry about election day violence and intimidation tactics.
