🚨🚨News Bulletin🚨🚨
Kathy Hochul campaign accidentally airs ads in York, UK instead of New York, USA.
OOPS
GOP ad buyer mixes up Portlands, spends money meant to help Maine Sen. Susan Collins in Oregon
The PAC boosting Collins is "absolutely furious" at the "ridiculous error" made by the buyer, which takes blame and has refunded the money.

As if this race couldn’t get any weirder, we now have cookie-gate to process 🤦🏻♂️.
Another funny fact: Did you know that besides everyone’s favorite perennial under-performer Kris Kobach, Marshall’s other main 2020 primary opponent was…Hamilton (no, not that one 😹)?
NYT: A Senator Facing Re-Election Settles a Bakery Bill, 6 Years Later
Senator Roger Marshall, a Kansas Republican in a difficult race, paid an old campaign debt for cookies, muffins and brownies after a baker’s story went viral online.

Why wouldn’t Marshall want the endorsement of such a strong over-performer? Brownback won by a massive 3% in a GOP wave, and…okay, I can’t carry this on any longer! 😹😹😹😹
Not sure why people keep asking if I'm voting for @RogerMarshallMD next month. Of course I am. Kansas voters have a clear choice between Marshall and a liberal Democrat who wants to make Chuck Schumer majority leader and block President Trump's judicial nominees.
Just for fun, here’s what the 2006 Gov map looked like by US Congrssional district. Strickland won 16/18 districts! 🤯

If Acton and Brown do indeed win their respective elections (still tossups), they’ll be the first Dems to win the offices since 2006 (Gov) and 1992 (Class II Senate seat).
You may recognize the R that lost the ‘92 Senate race…👀
I remember the ‘14 Gov election well (ironically Blakeman lost the House race in my district, NY-04).
Cuomo had a lackluster primary win that weakened him a bit (barely won Albany), and had to deal with a red wave, plus Green Party siphoning.
We’ll see how Hochul fares this year, but I’m skeptical she wins by <15.
