Hey I am not sure how to do this, can we create races for their primaries this year (MA house members). They were all uncontested but still received write in votes against them.

I Still think this race leans towards Brown but he is certainly in for the fight of his life.
He’ll outperform Biden especially in Appalachia, Northeast Ohio, and the rust belt on the Lake but it just depends if it is by enough.

First and foremost, I do sincerely hope McConnell is ok, despite these incidents, though they certainly do not signal whole wellness. But the pause and disconcerted gaze here summed up my thoughts about the question posed quite well.
I can appreciate the political consideration in any event of resignation, though such is the hazard of seeking re-election to a six-year term (or voting for an incumbent in such a position) as a then near-octogenarian.

Luzerne County Historian: At what point is it considered elder abuse to keep people who are clearly suffering from mental health issues in office?
You assume it's staff and not the senator themselves, in more lucid moments, refusing to go. In my (admittedly limited) experience working in legislatures, it's the elected official who chooses to hold out until the bitter end.

Well, not exactly what I expected. But essentially rather than waiting for the next election, they created an election day to game the system.
I don't think constitutional amendments should pass by simple majority. Most states require a higher threshold for constitutional matters vs. simple referendum. I'm also pro-life.
Still I hate even more trying to game the system for political outcomes - taking advantage of people not voting on a non standard election day during summer holidays.

Jackasses selling out. Also, I love how they try to use Massie and Rand Paul as examples of races they don't want to spoil, despite the fact that neither of them are from Colorado and they win their elections with the majority of the vote anyway.

Well lets look at historical trends and look at the combined total of Democratic Primary opponents (AND VOTES FOR UNCOMMITTED) to an incumbent Dem Prez:
1936: 7.1%
1940: 28.07%
1944: 20.8%
1948: 36.1%
1964: 12.3%
1968: 94.9% (LBJ Withdrew after NH)
1980: 48.9%
1996: 11%
2012: 11.1%
A lot of the hardcore Marianne Supporters truly seem to think that her bid will be a repeat of 1968 or 1980 harping on Biden's unpopularity, but that is mostly for people outside of the Democratic Party and not Democrats themselves. Yes a lot of them did not WANT him to run, but now that he is most Dems are just going along with it. Whereas LBJ and Carter were seen as detriments through and through, even by their own party.
It's not unprecedented that they could possibly get higher, but realistically it is going to be in the low double digits if at all. 15% is the peak, RFK only doing it out of Name Rec and Marianne only getting the most hardcore of the "Bernie or Bust" types

I saw the one with him at 14% and Marianne at 5%. I don't know that I trust these polls yet. I don't see him getting 21% in any primary, but 1/5 people believing or supporting things he says sounds about right to me.

Do you even have to ask anymore? Of course there are people who support him, fewer than news coverage might suggest but more than sane people would like.
