Six pollsters have tested the way-too-early 2028 national Democratic presidential primary over the last 50 days. I’ve aggregated their crosstabs to give us a baseline sense of where the race stands by demographic subgroup as 2025 comes to an end. Lots to dive into. 🧵

So incredibly proud of my friend @lachicamayra! She will be an amazing Member of Congress. Send some money her way if you can.
Growing up in Back of the Yards in a Mexican immigrant family, nothing was ever handed to me. I’m running for Congress to fight for the community that raised me, and to give voters in the 4th district a choice in this election.

Outrageous. Tierra Walker asked for life saving abortion care and 90 doctors were involved in her case.And yet she was left to die. Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Greg Abbott & Ken Paxton are responsible for this abortion ban. They have blood on their hands.
New: ProPublica has found multiple cases of women with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions. Tierra Walker, a 37-year-old mother, was told by doctors there was no emergency before preeclampsia killed her.

Texas' abortion ban has killed another woman. Let's be very clear: Republicans are killing women. Democrats need to start calling them murderers loudly and often. https://t.co/KxQo6PGzvL

Walker is one of several women ProPublica found with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions.

Instead @lachicamayra is going to run!
Yeah, given Garcia's health and family circumstances, his last-minute decision to retire is totally understandable. But the moment he told his Chief of Staff should've been the moment he told everyone else. If she had enough advance notice to gather a few thousand signatures,

This is some serious gaslighting. No one is criticizing Garcia for retiring. The issue is that he announced his retirement after the deadline was closed, and his chief of staff had been tipped off and filed the paperwork to be the only candidate on the Dem ballot in a D+17 CD.

Megyn Kelly in 2018: " There's no consenting for a 14 or even a 17 year old." Megyn Kelly now: "Jeffrey Epstein…was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."
