“Primary elections that took place across the country yesterday continued the trend of the past year: Democratic enthusiasm is off the charts. In Texas, where Democratic primary voters picked James Talarico over Representative Jasmine Crockett, Democrats turned out in huge numbers, swamping the Republican vote. And Democrats continued the trend of the past year, flipping an Arkansas state house seat from Republican to Democratic. David Nir of The Downballot notes that in more than 90 special elections since Trump took office, Democrats have beaten the results of the 2024 presidential election by an average of 13 points.” https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/march-4-2026?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=20533&post_id=189971319&utm_campaign=email-post-title&isFreemail=true&r=1i9fvx&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email
