Just a few more days til election day….I added some more candidates to our last go-round of candidates: Cunningham, Kulnarni, Denney, Eastman, Horn. We’ve got ten candidates now. So let’s make it an even 10K. These are all under-the-radar races. I think it’s the best way to spend our last minute money. There are A LOT of races that look like safe R that are shockingly close when they are polled. You can bet there’s a lot that are shockingly close that haven’t been polled at all. These could be in there.

    Great news: Mike Levin (D) is more than 12 points up in CA-49 — Darrell Issa’s seat! Consider it flipped.

    Meantime we’re plugging away at CA-50, which soon-to-be-convicted slimeball Duncan Hunter Jr. continues to infest. Our guy Ammar Campa-Najjar (D) is still a long shot — he’s about 4 points down — but a huge GOTV could get it done. We have volunteers by the hundreds, campaign HQ is a madhouse … this could happen, folks.

    Call. Walk. Whatever. All together, now!

    If you are there at HQ, could you please find out if Ammar is signed up for remote texting anywhere. Or remote phonebanking? If so, please email info to me through PostCardPatriots.com so I can put it on the site.

    I check the new BJ Candidates for possible text/remote phonebanking on their sites as they are added. None have it. Because they all bought the terrible off-the-shelf site templates. In 2020, I am going to post “Here is how humans think and act” guidelines for pols so they won’t keep making the same mistakes. Maybe someone will hear it.

    Will say this, today’s batch were the best looking bunch. Movie star good looks.

    Thanks for adding Audrey Denney to the list. As a commentator at the Great Orange Satan noted today, the normally conservative Chico Enterprise-Record just endorsed her.

    Also too, for folks who haven’t had the time to follow what’s happening with early voting–it is way the hell up virtually everywhere. So far 19 states have already surpassed their 2014 early vote totals–several counties in Texas have even surpassed their total 2014 vote. And there have been marked increases in the number of first time voters and young voters.

    Hundreds of thousands of new voters are showing up to cast their ballots early in the weeks before the midterm elections, fueling Democratic hopes that a younger electorate may help them over the finish line in key states.

    The number of voters between the ages of 18 and 29 who have cast ballots early has surpassed turnout levels from the last midterm election in just about every state, according to several sources tracking early vote totals.

    In some states, especially those with hot races, the increase in turnout is staggering. In Texas, 332,000 voters under the age of 30 have cast ballots already, up nearly five fold from the 2014 midterms. In Nevada, the 25,000 young voters who have cast a ballot is also five times higher than in the same period four years ago.

    Georgia’s young voter turnout is four times higher than it was in 2014. In Arizona, three times as many younger voters are turning up.

    “Voters under the age of 30, relative to their ’14 turnout, are outperforming every other group,” said Tom Bonier, a Democratic strategist whose firm TargetSmart tracks the early vote. “It’s not just like a presidential year surge where you’re getting younger voters who only vote in presidentials coming out in a midterm. A lot of these young people are voting in their first election period.”

    Nate Cohn, who is the NYT polling nerd said that they now have enough early voting numbers to know that any polling models using 2014 (which would be more R) as a baseline will be wrong. He thinks the models he’s been using for the NYT/Sienna polling they’ve been using look good so far but that we will have to see how the remaining early vote comes in–typically the early early vote is older & more R, the closer you get to election day the more the early vote should skew younger & Der.

I got involved with Applegate anyway and he came within 1671 votes and now we are about to elect an environmental issues Democrat two years later. So even if Nunes doesn’t go this year, the race will be closer, and Mueller and the Democrat house will turn up a bunch of dirt before 2020. And I don’t write Janz off. He has a ton of charisma and he knows the water issues inside and out.

    He’s a long shot, but not a prohibitive long shot. The least favorable of 538’s projections still gives him about a 1 in 5 chance of winning. If I understand their projections right, that’s probably in the case where the polls are systematically wrong and the blue wave is a blue tsunami.

I told the (very enthusiastic and personable) volunteer that I’d spread the word. And so I am. I believe there are a number of St. Louis area jackals who might find this good news.

    @Hungry Joe: CA-45 is looking a little tighter than a few weeks ago. Porter still up but not as much. I’ll be canvassing again this weekend.

    The key to flipping Nunes is getting the latino vote to turn out. That’s a flippable district if we get equal turnout to whites. CA-10 has the same dynamic.

    @Roger Moore: Exactly. 4 points is in it. If the turnout model they are using to determine the electorate is off, then the stated margins get pretty rapidly wiped out. That’s really what a wave election is – it’s not a lot of voters changing their affiliations from what they told the pollsters, it’s a lot of voters voting (or not voting) that the pollsters didn’t see coming.

    Startling new research finds large buildup of heat in the oceans, suggesting a faster rate of global warming

    The world’s oceans have been soaking up far more excess heat in recent decades than scientists realized, suggesting that Earth could be set to warm even faster than predicted in the years ahead, according to new research published Wednesday.

    Over the past quarter-century, Earth’s oceans have retained 60 percent more heat each year than scientists previously had thought, said Laure Resplandy, a geoscientist at Princeton University who led the startling study published Wednesday in the journal Nature. The difference represents an enormous amount of additional energy, originating from the sun and trapped by Earth’s atmosphere — the yearly amount representing more than eight times the world’s annual energy consumption.

    In the scientific realm, the new findings help resolve long-running doubts about the rate of the warming of the oceans before 2007, when reliable measurements from devices called “Argo floats” were put to use worldwide. Before that, differing types of temperature records — and an overall lack of them — contributed to murkiness about how quickly the oceans were heating up.

    I maybe thought maybe there was a 10% or 20% chance that might be true. But some people bought it.

    Yeah, a wonderful way to describe how I feel about it. This close, another $25-50-100 can’t make that much difference in voting in that district… but it can make us feel a little better about the big picture race.

    We are getting bombarded with commercials on two races, Manchin V Morrissey for Senate and Ojeda V Brown for 3rd District Congress, the district that wraps from Huntington at the westernmost point in the state, south across to Raleigh county and up to Webster and north along the VA border, capturing a lot of the coal counties and the timber and national forest eastern counties along the Allegheny Front.

    Ojeda grew up in the coal fields, and left when he graduated from high school, joining the Army. He worked he way up from recruit to Major in the Airborne in a 24 year career, and it really shows. He has been taught leadership the Airborne Way and he learned it well enough to work from E1 up through E-7 and on from O-1 up to what, isn’t O-4 a Major?

    Anyway, his opponent is a Republican from a wealthy Huntington family who has never really worked a day in her life for anyone who wasn’t either a relative or a close family friend, like a R congressman. Currently a state house Delegate republican.

    @dm:

    538 is only as good as the polling.

    I think 538 would say they’re better than polls alone. They try hard to do some other stuff to fill in gaps in the polling- they use national generic ballots and try to factor in some other “fundamental” factors, including things like scandals- which should make them at least a bit better than the polls in poorly polled districts. How much that stuff works when there are strong factors affecting that particular district (e.g. I don’t know if their generic “scandal” factor properly accounts for Hunter being indicted) is unclear.

    That said, it looks like CA-50 has at least semi-regular polling, including a quite recent one from Survey USA, so you’d hope even the polls only model would do OK there.

    As a child who grew up in a newspaper newsroom, literally, I have strong opinions about freedom of the press. My father spent a huge amount of money to defend his editorial page against a libel suit pressed by a crooked politician, and won in the US Supreme Court many years ago. Details to those who want them, it’s in textbooks about news media libel law.

    But the press needs to spend its effort on being accurate, truthful, and objective. Not on making timely but false accusations against political opponents of the owner’s captive politicians. Once a press organ begins promulgating lies, spinning falsehoods, distorting events, they begin to shed the freedom of the press and start to be a propaganda arm of a politically corrupt movement.

    Would the First Amendment have allowed the German Nazi party movement to take over America in the 1930s? After years of observation of reality my answer is NO, IT WOULD NOT!

    Truth is an absolute defense against accusations of libel and slander. I now believe that presenting blatant falsehoods repeatedly destroys a news organization’s “freedom of the press” and allows them to be shut down to protect the nation from the certain damage to come from a wild propaganda outlet spewing lies as if they were true, over and over.

    I’m going to post this comment in several threads, I think it is important.
