Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Polymarket has NC 11 tilted 86% for Ager (D).
Jennifer Balkcom is not a good GOP candidate.
Why do you think so?
A ton of money is being spent on Balkcom ads. Let's hope our string of weirdos has ended. Will Ager pile on the coming House flip?
She is not appealing and her ads are horrendous. The one about Ager staging a party for transgenders is inaccurate and I'm sure turned others off. Tim Moffit would have been a much better GOP choice.
Thanks, I agree about her ads but wasn't sure a con would think so. Why did the GQP pick Balkcom rather than Moffit. Did he want it?
Dems on a path to win a 54-seat majority in the US Senate, maybe 55:

I am not a GOP insider so I have no idea why Balkcom was chosen or if Moffitt was interested. History says the dems will win the House. I think the GOP has a chance to retain the senate. Just history of the states and ElSayed will not play with many Michiganders.

WTF is that all about? Surely there can't be any competitive races there.

That feels like a white flag.

It's a longshot but the Dems have not ceded the Mississippi Senate seat yet. The race is tight. If Mississippi falls the nation falls.

Very little public polling but a few articles. Maybe their internals are alarming.

The incumbent senator is a lightweight that does not inspire the base. MS is subject to many staying home.
