@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social Would have been even funnier if it had been Abbott's real account with the _TX in the end. Still, #MAGA got a proper reaming at the #midterms2026, and these sycophants and bigots deserve every bit of that.

Wow. Despite all the gerrymandering & musky money: MAGA seem to be *tremendously* unpopular. That'll surprise noone but them. Long live the resistance? I'm really curious to see what the Democrats do with this momentum, i.e., if they'll manage to do anything. Or whether most of them have also been bought up by the broligarchy already. Interesting years ahead. That's for sure... And the worst has been averted. Tech-fascism is not destiny. The future remains wide open! #uspol #midterms2026

Tomorrow morning I’ll sign in for my 16 hr shift as a NYS election inspector. I’ll boot up the machines. I’ll provide voters w the correct ballot for their precinct. I’ll make sure every ballot is cast and counted. I’ll do this for every registered Democrat, Republican, Third Party voter, and Independent. Because voting is an inviolable right of citizenship. Because #democracy depends on free and fair elections. Because we are the caretakers of this Republic. #midterms2026

RE: https://mas.to/@angiebaby/117485123222532747 🚨 🚨 🚨 #USpol #Midterms2026 #elections2026 the moral of this story is that Stella Parton had a PAPER BALLOT that corroborated the computer glitch. READ UP ON YOUR STATE’S VOTING PROCESS each state & territory has their own elections boards. voting and vote counting machines vary from state to state. that’s why many folks in states with all electronic voting in-person are choosing mail-in ballots; but you may have the option to get a paper ballot if you ask for one. check your state’s rules…🧵

RE: https://mastodon.social/@TwraSun/117484270657855967 Dolly Parton's sister, Stella Parton, says that a voting machine in Tennessee repeatedly switched her selection to Republican Marsha Blackburn, so she had to correct her ballot paper three times before she could vote. She's not alone. Other voters in Tennessee have reported similar issues while trying to vote for Democrats.

Folks, I'm still here. I have had less to say or share because the news has been generally overwhelming, and I have been recentering my focus (slowly but surely) on the good that remains. Kinda like looking up into the heavens at night, I realized I could suddenly see many tiny points of light amid the darkness. To that end, here's my update, my Three Good Things. 1) I've volunteered to work with the ACLU, both as a poll monitor in a different city for midterm elections, and also "as needed" for other future concerns. Training is planned. 2) My local branches of Indivisible are also gearing up for midtems, and are actively recruiting poll monitors for training to address the many possibilities, good and bad. I am considering attending this training as well, as it's closer to home, and poll monitors are needed badly here too. 3) My full-time job continues at a popular national thrift store chain that makes every effort to reduce carbon emissions, employee the health-challenged and those with recent prior prison records, and keep used clothing / furniture / household goods out of the landfills while giving back to the local community with inexpensive or free job training available to everyone. And an extra today: 4) Community college classes start again for fall semester in mid-October. I'm registered for two in-person classes, plus one that is entirely online. #threegoodthings #3goodthings#CommunityCollege #midterms2026 #pollmonitoring#aclu #indivisible #northcarolina#perseverance #survivingintheshadows #survivingtheabyss

The Weekly Focus planner is up. 13 pro-democracy actions around Arizona between September 21 and 27, sorted by time commitment. It opens with a five-minute registration check, and registration closes October 5. Number 8 is the one that ends with a surveillance ban written into city law, if enough people turn up to ask for it. https://azadvocacyhub.org/weekly-focus/?ref=mastodon #Arizona #ArizonaPolitics #VotingRights #Surveillance #Midterms2026

So they literally took 1 trillion from the poor and gave it to the ultra rich. And another trillion for the very rich. Repubs are evil monsters, vile filth. The biggest fraud and theft is by Republicans stealing trillions but they don't want to talk about their fraud in the big ugly bill. And more corruption, crypto schemes, foreign bribes, the president ACTUALLY pardoning convicted Medicaid fraudsters. From #Congress Senator Patty Murray: #midterms #elections #vote #usa #midterms2026

Looking forward to seeing how the Supreme Court contorts itself around long-established precedence and the constitution to give this administration a win in limiting mail in ballots. My guess is they argue the executive order is between his admin, and the USPS totally skirting the issue of states rights (a traditionally Republican position) and clear as day text of article 1 section 4. https://ground.news/article/trump-administration-urges-supreme-court-to-allow-order-targeting-mail-in-voting-before-midterms #supremecourt #electionintegrity #statesrights #elections #midterms2026
