The Republican anti-trans ad campaigns focusing on trans girls playing on youth teams spent $42 million for every trans girl on a youth team in the US

According to data from Ad Impact, the GOP spent roughly $215 million on network TV ads alone calling transgender people a threat to the American way of life

Gillian Branstetter, a spokesperson for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said the number of transgender athletes isn't comprehensive, but she's also certain it's a very small portion of the nation's population. Branstetter told Newsweek that Save Women's Sports, an organization advocating for banning transgender athletes from competing in girls' sports, identified only five transgender athletes competing on girls' teams in school sports for grades K through 12.
 

Poorer voters flocked to Trump and other data points from the election​

FT analysis of this week's election results paint a dire picture for the Democrats

After a deep-dive into the data, here are five takeaways.
(Headline summary)

Democratic support depends on high-income voters​

Immigration probably pushed voters to Trump​

Trump captured the suburbs and cities became less Democratic​

Hispanic-majority areas swung to Trump​

Low turnout among Democrats accentuated the swing towards Trump​

 
some really interesting stats in this suggesting a significant shift to the left "amongst democrats" (see article for details) whilst also collapsing as the party of the WC

Some real positives aside from that IMO in regards the possibility to move left but Im too lazy to post comment properly at the mo

I'd like to see some error bars on those plots, and there are some questions there (how is the 'median' voter being defined?) but an interesting piece
 
If this is accurate:

"Trump claimed 43 percent of the vote in Dearborn, Michigan, to Kamala Harris’s 36 percent. Jill Stein claimed 15 percent of the vote in the city, where the Green Party had notched less than 1 percent in 2020.

Trump’s margin of victory in Dearborn represents a massive reversal from the 2020 election, when Joe Biden’s won 69 percent to Trump’s 30...

Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib, a progressive Palestinian American, won 62 percent of the vote in Dearborn compared to Republican candidate James Hooper’s 30 percent. She was easily reelected to a fourth term."

Obviously, Dearborn isn't the whole country, but still.

that's one way of looking at it... or, as the article says, the shift is out of line with where most people are. and that isn't necessarily good. certainly not good if you want to win an election.

but it's also kind of the whole 'LibsOfTikTok' way of doing social media: convince people that the opposition - democrats here - hold all these crazy extreme views and that 'hard left' positions are the de facto position of the whole party.
