    Former Rep. Peter Meijer is dropping his bid for Michigan’s open Senate seat, the Republican said in a statement Friday. “The hard reality is the fundamentals of the race have changed since we launched this campaign. After prayerful consideration, today I withdrew my name from the primary ballot. Without a strong pathway to victory, continuing this campaign only increases the likelihood of a divisive primary that would distract from the essential goal – conservative victories in November,” Meijer said. One of just 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach former President Donald Trump after the January 6, 2021, riot, Meijer...

    Republican Utah Rep. John Curtis — the frontrunner in the race to succeed retiring GOP Sen. Mitt Romney — received thousands of dollars in contributions from donors to former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley’s presidential bid during the first fundraising quarter of his Senate campaign, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation review of Federal Election Commission (FEC) data. Curtis brought in over $98,000 from donors of Haley’s suspended campaign and aligned super PAC, SFA Fund, Inc., between Jan. 1 and April 7, FEC filings show. The congressman has refrained from endorsing former President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign while other leading...

    WASHINGTON — The latest front line in the free speech war is a balcony in the Pennsylvania state Capitol — and it's being fought over marijuana and rainbow flags. The flags belong to Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, a tattooed 6-foot-8 Democrat considering a run for Senate next year, who hung the pro-legalization green leaf and LGBTQ rights flags from the balcony of his office, which overlooks the state Capitol’s front steps and much of downtown Harrisburg.
  • Mitch McConnell's Leadership PAC Announces It Will Spend $7 million in Ads to Support Nasty RINO Lisa Murkowski

    The Gateway Pundit ^ | April 19, 2022 | Joe Hoft
    Dirty Republican Senator Mitch McConnell is going to spend $7 million on Lisa Murkowski from Alaska, who has voted for every anti-American bill possible while in the Senate. Mitch McConnell does not stand with the Republican Party, the Trump-Republican base (the largest base in US history), or America. His choice to support Lisa Murkowski in Alaska is appalling. Why not give $7 million to the Democrats? The Daily Mail is reporting that McConnell is supporting Murkowski in Alaska with a $7 million dollar spend. Imagine how much misinformation you could create with that amount of money. Senate Minority Leader Mitch...

    Tech entrepreneur Peter Thiel just dropped a massive donation into a PAC supporting author and venture capitalist J.D. Vance for the open U.S. Senate seat in Ohio. Vance has not officially entered the race, but his name has been discussed as a possible candidate to replace incumbent Republican Sen. Rob Portman, who announced earlier this year that he will not seek another term. Thiel’s donation has raised some eyebrows in the state, where there’s every indication that the primary election will be a referendum on President Trump. Vance, author of Hillbilly Elegy, which portrayed the struggles of Vance’s family in...

    "......"All eyes will be on Georgia for the next two months," Emory University political science professor Andra Gillespie said. "There will be record spending, unprecedented campaigning and tons of mudslinging in these races — more than what we're used to seeing." Currently, Republicans hold a 53-47 majority in the U.S. Senate. With several races undecided, Democrats have gained one new seat in the Senate but would need two more for a 50-50 split. Then, if Joe Biden wins the White House, Kamala Harris as vice president would cast tiebreaking votes in the chamber......"

    VIDEO Democrat Senate candidate from North Carolina is hilariously reciting from an obviously rehearsed script in order to dodge questions if he has other mistresses. Chuck Schumer should ask for a refund of all the money poured into Cunningham's campaign but he has only himself to blame. He wanted what he thought would be a white bread vanilla boy who could run based on cleancut family values but it boomeranged on him. Schumer should have remembered about North Carolina's other Vanilla Boy in the Senate of scandal fame and been a lot more careful in his vetting process.

    Arizona’s drawn-out Senate election has attracted a lawsuit from Republicans in the state, challenging the procedure for how mail-in ballots are counted. Republican Martha McSally and Democrat Kyrsten Sinema, both U.S. representatives, are in a heated battle to become Arizona’s next senator. As of Thursday afternoon, McSally had 856,848 votes to Sinema’s 839,775, giving the Republican lawmaker a one-point edge with 99 percent of precincts reporting. Despite the lead, election forecasters are not ready to declare McSally a winner because of the inordinate amount of mail-in ballots still not counted. About 75 percent of Arizona voters cast their ballots by...

    This is good news for those who believe Tennessee's senate seat that Bob Corker is currently defiling. Marsha Blackburn poll numbers from the commissioned by the Committee to Defend the President, which plans to spend heavily in an effort to help Blackburn — found 38 percent of those surveyed supported the Republican congressman while 35 percent favored Bredesen. It continues to narrow from her high lead of 9 In a December poll but given Tennessee's history of narrow elections, this is to be expected. Barring the unforeseen, this is good news for Marasha, President Trump and the Senate increasing it's...

    Gov. Rick Scott appears to be on board with Rep. Carlos Curbelo's plan to bypass House Speaker Paul Ryan to force a slew of immigration votes, putting the Republican running for Bill Nelson's U.S. Senate seat in line with Democrats and a small group of moderate Republicans. But while Scott offered support for Curbelo's idea to force action, it isn't clear what types of immigration policies he would champion in the U.S. Senate if elected. "We need to secure our borders and help these kids. Congress needs to get DACA legislation done. Thanks Congressman Curbelo for fighting for this," Scott...

The left-wing celebrity support for Jones in Alabama is reminiscent of the Hollywood-heavy campaign earlier this year for Democrat Jon Ossoff, who lost his bid against Republican Karen Handel in Georgia’s Sixth...
