Vance: Ohio voted against my abortion policy. So we need to earn your trust so we can then screw you over and get my position in place. What a wild response.

Turning on heat at night is gross. Not in my Ohio.

Stay with me. My theory is Elon Musk logged himself out of Twitter. Then he couldn't log back on so he bought Twitter.

Really cool data on how much the public says they are hearing about/from Harris. And great timing as a baseline since she is about to do what the campaign thinks of as a big media week.

I think dealing with the Tennessee DMV is gonna give me my first grey hair.

Happy MPSA extension day to all who celebrate!

The first few lines of the WaPo non-endorsement are so dumb and funny. It's basically, "we decided, starting at this particular election, to not endorse. Here's a quote from guys 50 years ago, written before all citizens could vote with a rationalization." LoL

Ok nerdy but awesome responses from political scientists. Probably as close to a series of "top of head" responses among really smart folks as you will ever get.

Important as we look towards another predictable phase of post-election "voter fraud" accusations.

Not a coincidence that Stop the Steal theories of mass voter fraud involve conspiracies about election administration in Black cities. Working paper from Kevin Morris & Ian Shapiro shows that racial attitudes moderate beliefs about voter fraud. ungated papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

My coin flip election forecast method is about as precise as the $$$ models.

The American Voter

My Campaigns and Elections students will come out of the class knowing how the electoral college works, the difference between framing/priming, why the fundamentals predict elections, and that the 13 keys are a farce. And I think that's pretty good.

These Trump nominations are giving EXACTLY the same vibes as the Mario movie casting announcements.

Tell me you are historically illiterate with one tweet. Campbell (2016) demonstrates the arc of polarization in the modern era. But that's 250 page book and what podcaster has time to read those?
