  5. I predict Democrats will break the Republican Supermajority in the Kansas Senate.

    This is a low confidence prediction, because I believe Democrats will win just enough seats to prevent the Republicans from retaining their supermajority.

  13. I examined the Republican obsession with transgender athletes, which led to the creation of a sports ban in Kansas, when Republicans overrode Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly's veto.

  14. The next article explores how Kansas Republicans have continued to chip away at abortion rights, even though Kansas voters decisively rejected a constitutional amendment in 2022 that would have allowed the legislature to enact a restrictive abortion ban.

  19. Just donated to one of the giving circles in North Carolina, through the States Project.

    Have given more this year than probably the last 20 combined... hate that we, as citizens, need to do this to have any effect on the outcome of this election, but clearly that is the case in 2024.

    We have a chance, and a choice. Figure if not now, we may not get another of either.
