Kamala Harris’s entry into the presidential race has turned the election dynamics upside down. Key swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and North Carolina will be crucial in determining the outcome. Beatrice Learmouth argues that Harris has strong support among African Americans, Gen Z, and ‘double-haters’ in Georgia and North Carolina, focusing on the economy and democracy. In Arizona and Nevada, Harris’s stance on immigration and abortion will be pivotal to winning over Hispanics and moderates. However, she faces challenges in the Rust Belt states, where her appeal to white working-class voters and economic policies will be critical. Ultimately, Learmouth believes that while Harris is the underdog, the unpredictable nature of recent politics means her victory cannot be ruled out. #USElection2024 #KamalaHarris #SwingStates #PoliticalStrategy #ElectionDynamics https://lnkd.in/eXpPspi8

Three take-aways from Robert Kennedy Jr’s powerful pro-Artsakh stand: 1) RFK Jr’s principled position - in the wake of Vivek Ramaswamy’s strong pro-Artsakh messaging - meaningfully elevates the place of Armenian issues upon the national electoral stage - a potent (potentially election altering) challenge to Joe Biden and Donald Trump (both guilty of arming genocidal Azerbaijan and abandoning democratic Artsakh). 2) There is a growing appreciation among top electoral strategists for both the political potency of Armenian issues and the potentially pivotal role of Armenian American votes in a closely contested 2024 presidential race. 3) RFK Jr’s (independent) appeal to nearly two million Armenian Americans takes place in the context of our community’s profound dissatisfaction – decades in the making – with the relentless lies and anti-Armenian betrayals of the foreign policy establishments of Democratic and Republican administrations.

REVEALED: Middle Britons are at the centre of the swing constituencies in the #GeneralElection.     This opinion profile dominates 2 in 3 marginal seats contested between the Conservatives and Labour in 2019.    But who are the Middle Britons?    Middle Britons are the closest profile to a 'typical' British voter. They tend to:    👍Mildly agree with left-wing narratives  💰Be divided around tax-and-spend policies  ⚖️Be largely neutral on equal opportunities  👮Agree on the need to be tough on crime    They lack strong party affiliation, and so seats where they are over-represented are more likely to swing.    Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eZw4WEBy  #GE24 #DividingLines

This update features analysis of British and American politics, where 2024 election campaigns are ramping up. We set the scene for the Conservative and Labour conferences and consider where the policy spotlight is moving; then we check in on the Republican and Democrat primaries: we find Biden and Trump looking on course for victory against their opponents, and Trump (in a change from 2016/20) leading in general polls, but external difficulties still await both: is Trump at risk of losing ballot access in some states or receiving an indictment-related gag order? And if Biden’s age/health concerns and polling decline continue, will victory in his primary still not prevent his party from trying to replace him and Kamala Harris next summer? #2024election #biden #trump #uspolitics #sunak #starmer #ukpolitics

We need bold, brave politicians able to address the national and international challenges we face 💪 So what is the point of voting for the Liberal Democrats asks our CE Ben Rich, longstanding member of the party - with no prospect of winning or offering anything different to the opposition. He calls for a distinct radical voice - and especially in the key areas of #climatecrisis #democracy and relations with the #eu 'Unless they offer a clear alternative vision, the party will not again become a powerful and impactful political voice' https://lnkd.in/eVhg5dYH

🚨Since our last #PrimaryProblem update, seven states (MD, NE, WV, GA, ID, KY, OR) held congressional primaries. So far in 2024, 17 states have held primaries, and just 4% of the U.S. voting age population has already elected 45% of the U.S. House. In MD, ID, KY, and OR, only 9.1% of voters chose 20 out of 22 Representatives, while nearly 3M were barred due to closed primaries.🗳 Tomorrow, more states vote. Let’s spotlight the need for nonpartisan #ElectionReform and #OpenPrimaries to make every vote truly count! https://bit.ly/3UfAJ65

New post on Dividing Lines: what we can learn about Tory members from the messages the Tories send them https://lnkd.in/dWMae_sH

Parliament sitting in progress. Rainbo Paita has emerged as the new Alternate Prime Minister nominee for the opposition, following extensive meetings among opposition members. The opposition, despite recent defections, remains determined to file a motion of no confidence against Prime Minister James Marape's leadership. Prime Minister Marape asserts confidence in his government's stability and dismisses the opposition's actions as part of the democratic process. This parliamentary session today (28th of May 2024) is expected to be crucial, with both camps preparing for a showdown. #politics #pngpolitics #pngparliament #11thparliament #vonc #democracy

On 4 May 1979, Margaret Thatcher prays on the steps of Downing Street after being elected Britain's first female prime minister. "Where there is discord may we bring harmony, Where there is error may we bring truth, Where there is doubt may we bring faith, And where there is despair may we bring hope." In 1983, Margaret Thatcher won her second General #Election with a landslide 144 seat majority. 2024, the Conservatives Party wouldn't even select her as a candidate because they would class her as being too right-wing (&maybe too white). Ted Heath (wet) - small majority. John Major (wet) - small majority. David Cameron (wet) - no majority & tiny majority. Theresa May (wet) - no majority. Margaret Thatcher (not a wet) - massive landslides. Boris Johnson (not a wet) - landslide. Mrs thatcher won 3 elections from the right & was the last decent Tory leader. The tories should move to the right. #conservativeparty #politicsandlaw #borisjohnson #conservativewomen #conservative #PritiPatel #IStandWithPriti #illegalimmigration #immigration #rwanda #theironlady #womeninpolitics #womenwriters #margaretthatcher #LabourParty #classwar #economyslowdown #houseoflords #houseofcommons #parliament #government #politicalscience #politicalcampaigns #TonyBlair #governance #london #birmingham #midlands #londoncity #londonprotest #StopTheViolence #DontBendTheKnee #Tory #PoliticsUK #reform #reformuk
