Creating this thread to talk about other random races throughout the country that don’t warrant their own thread.

Starting it off with the governor race in NC. The GOP candidate Robinson is ultra MAGA and has made comments like women shouldn’t be allowed to vote. News came out yesterday about his Porn addiction back in the 90’s. He used to visit on a daily basis.

MAGA North Carolina Guv Candidate Was Regular at Porn Shop: Employee

“Every night that I worked, which would have been five nights a week, I saw Mark (Robinson),” Louis Money, who worked at Gents Video & News in Greensboro, North Carolina, said.

Tom Barrett, a Republican vying for a Michigan congressional seat, is facing calls for an investigation after an ad from his campaign incorrectly listed Election Day as Nov. 6 in a Black-owned Michigan newspaper.

In a complaint filed Sunday with the state attorney general, the Michigan Legislative Black Caucus accused Barrett’s campaign of misleading Black voters to suppress turnout — something the group of Black state lawmakers said could violate a Michigan law that prohibits intentionally spreading misinformation about the election process to deter an individual from voting.

“At best, Tom Barrett and his Campaign have committed a shocking oversight which will undoubtedly lead to confusion by Black voters in Lansing,” states the complaint, which calls on the attorney general as well as a local county prosecutor to launch a probe.

“And, at worst, this ad could be part of an intentional strategy to ‘deter’ Black voters by deceiving them into showing up to vote on the day after the 2024 election.”

Barrett’s campaign has acknowledged the mistake, blaming it on a “proofing error” that was not intended to suppress turnout………

Michigan GOP candidate’s ad aimed at Black voters has wrong election date​

Yeah, the Rethugs have figured out that anything you do right before an election is totally okay. It won't be fixed before ballots are cast and if you win, it won't be pursued at all.

Seeing a lot of anti alsobrooks ads here in Maryland about the tax issue and about how unfit for office that makes her

More than a little hypocritical with all of Trump’s tax/financial fraud

Love this line from this article

Harris and Trump are tied in the polls – so I conducted my own less traditional research | Arwa Mahdawi

The latest survey shows the presidential candidates are neck and neck. But a trip around my neighbourhood suggests good news for Harris and possibly for giant meteors, writes Arwa Mahdawi

More than a little hypocritical for Hogan to say one damn word about her minor tax issue. He’s lined his own pockets for millions.

Hogan Approved Millions for His Firm's Listed Clients as Governor

Six of Hogan's listed clients won nearly 40% of housing awards over eight years. Experts call for investigation.
