We have to convince Manchin, Synema, and Feinstein that people have to be able to vote for them.

I don't see any voting rights bills passing in this current environment, unfortunately.

Apparently, that's a complicated concept for them.

We have no idea how any of those 3 will vote.
But don't let that stop the targeting.
Maybe we can take a cue from OH-11 & begin with the approach of what sneering labels & despicable targeting got them.
Start over, beginning today
Sinema is my least fav but I'm not counting anyone out until the votes are in.

(15,325 posts)4. K & R Thank You Senator Ossoff.
Notice the outstanding accomplishments by Democrats who diligently work beyond the self-aggrandizing posturing before a camera.
Sen Ossoff is a brilliant, exceptional treasure to the future of our Democratic Party.
~Thanks Sen Ossoff.
