I just dropped off my DC primary ballot at an early vote center. The poll workers clapped and said “congratulations!” Great to see the encouragement for voting!
Every time @votebeat.org has an event - or any time we send a newsletter - among the most frequently asked questions is "Will the midterms even happen?"
Yes, they will. But we've heard you, and we're doing a whole event about just that on July 13 at 5pm eastern.
And a bill to require photocopies of a voter ID to vote by mail is going to Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine's desk: ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/06/10/o...
Ohioans will vote in November on whether to enshrine a voter ID requirement in their state constitution: ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/06/10/o...
I'll moderate the discussion with @votebeat.org's senior reporters: @bycarterwalker.bsky.social, @nataliaecm.bsky.social and @dionnissenbaum.bsky.social. I hope you'll join us! www.eventbrite.com/e/will-the-m...
I asked Rep. Sarah Elfreth before the game how she would respond to people who say Dems should refuse to play in the #CBG26 to protest the GOP's/Trump's actions. I wanted to wait until I got home to transcribe her response in full.
What happens when you put a couple dozen thousand congressional staffers in the same place: #CBG26
The team MVPs are Morgan McGarvey for the Democrats (4 for 4 with a 2B) and a tie between Greg Steube (7 IP, 2 R) and Eric Schmitt (2 for 3 with a great catch) for Republicans. #CBG26
Final numbers: 32,500 tickets sold (although they did not all show up) and the game raised $3.25 million for charity. #CBG26
