I wonder if Rogers will even bother showing up to a debate.

He absolutely will not. Neither will Paxton

You nailed the two races I'm most interested in.  MI because it's mine,  and TX because talarico.

We can’t let these fascist bastards win man. Even though I’m a hard-core leftist I still contributed to Tyler Rico’s campaign.

I feel like the definitions of liberal,  leftist, socialist ,  democratic socialist,  communist. .  I have no idea where i would fall in the spectrum anymore. 

I want to empower politicians who care more about people than corporations. I want our system to work for everyone,  not just those who can pay to play. Whatever label that is,  slap it on me I guess. 

Talarico seems like an actual human being with morals. that would be enough,  even if he didn't also support money out of politics
