I very much like this choice! I was disappointed when he lost to Lisa McClain in the U.S. Congressional primary for the 10th district in 2020.

Mr. Hernandez's policy background and stances were more to my liking than hers.

I will say Dixon's extreme pro-life stance and lack of a big campaign war chest will make victory an uphill battle to say the least. She will need to gain ground with strong debate performances.

Glad she didn't pick Mike Bishop for reasons I won't delve into here. Definitely glad she didn't pick one of the flunkies who ran against her in the primary.
Great choice! Now if she could SOMEHOW use her position to bounce Deperno from the ticket...
Agreed, solid choice. I wish he would have beat McClain.

As a minority, Shane helps balance the ticket.
TCT has already determined Hernandez is not a minority and Dixon is not a woman.


What's more pathetic: harassing an old man who is paying to do a radio show or supporting a grifter like Trump?

Indeed.

Dixon's campaign wants the debates to happen BEFORE absentee ballots are sent out and voting begins...
"Debates must start BEFORE voting begins, not after as Whitmer is demanding," Dixon wrote on Twitter. "She wants to hide, but the people deserve answers!"
https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/ ... 884616001/
In 2018, Whitmer and her opponent, Republican former Attorney General Bill Schuette, participated in two debates on Oct. 12 and 24.

But that was before voters in November 2018 ushered in no-reason absentee voting in Michigan, which was adopted widely during the pandemic and led to more voters casting their ballots earlier by mail or in person at municipal clerk's offices.

In the most recent August primary, a little more than half of the 2.1 million people who cast a ballot — or about 1.1 million people — voted via absentee ballot, according to the Secretary of State's office.

Why in gods name would any politician including some of the gold standard 80-20 winners ever take that deal?

She’s playing the best card she has in a shitty hand, I’ll give her that.

There is no basis for your allegation that the link contains a virus.

A websearch for "Rumble Virus" also showed no matching results on the first page (I didn't look beyond that).

Says you....

As for the links and ads, those tabloid sites that matt1 posted are on par with Rumble.

It's pretty hilarious Dixon can't get state coverage on these topics. She's barely getting any coverage.

That's what happens you pick the least dangerous extremist. She may not be vocal about wanting to lock up Dems, but it's not like there are any logical thoughts in that brain.
