WE’RE NOT DOOMED: Fri March 13, 2026
Doomerella learns that We’re NOT Doomed, not just because of our wins, but some of our losses too.

Will Two Republicans Really Shut Democrats Out of the Governor's Race? With default settings, the TWINS model gives two Republicans a 21.2% chance of advancing to the general — a one-in-five shot at the Democratic nightmare...

Also, here’s the link to the article they referenced in my email: theballotbook.com/blog/will-tw...

Please do! Glad to contribute ❤️

Also: If everything is as rosy and no-biggie as his Team imply, then why is he running in the first place if he doesn’t have a reason to be in it??

Agreed. I offered a response worthy of the smokescreen, but I figured this was worth sharing as it represents the character of this candidate. Kinda reads like they used AI to write some of this too LOL.

I’m asking around with folks-in-the-know to see what we can do next to address this situation.

Once again…

EVERYTHING IS AWFUL AND THE DEMOCRATS ARE IN CHARGE OF NOTHING AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL but y’all manage to find a way to get on social media and give the GOP a pass by doing nothing but bashing Democrats.

We have NEVER seen a bigger contrast between both parties but here y’all are.

SMDH🤷🏾‍♀️

All of this should be no brainer, but it's such a challenge for some.😒

Hey, @ariellaelm.com! I just received an interesting response from Democrat gubernatorial candidate, Antonio Villaraigosa, regarding the Governor’s race in California.

What are your thoughts? So far, they’re the only candidate that has responded same-day to my inquiry.

The bottom line is the Economy. Message your shit around that to get people to listen. You fucked up last time with this old shit and another old person won who is terrible and you haven't learned a damn thing. Talk about folks pocketbooks. Every voter in this country will listen to that

You have GOT to be shitting me with this bullshit! But this isn't the least bit surprising when you really think about it.

So, California Democratic gubernatorial candidates, please drop out. PLEASE. It shouldn’t be possible for us to have a Republican governor anymore, but it will 100% happen if you act like you are the only one who can save the world. [Four stencils of two hands holding the globe in light blue]

Look at what could have happened in Georgia, and what did happen in Virginia, and, I’m fucking begging, don’t replicate it! [Four stencils at the bottom of a hand holding a sign that says vote in light blue]

And California voters? STOP PROPPING UP CANDIDATES THAT CAN’T WIN! We cannot risk those Republicans going to the runoff. Got it?

Going back to Georgia, if two Democrats, and more than just one of those 13 Republicans had been viable, then we really could have been looking at a runoff with two Dems. See how it’s possible now?

And don’t think I forgot about Virginia. The Democrat who won the primary, Sef Casim, we learned only a few weeks ago, was super racist on social media 10 years ago. He refused to step down, but his opponent, who lost the primary, Pam Montgomery ran as a write in anyway.

Since there was only one Republican, surprise surprise, the Republican won. In California, there are so many candidates because each candidate thinks that the others are useless and that they are the only person who can do the job well. Which will be our downfall.

Because in California it’s flipped. It’s a blue state with the Republicans being the underdog. And the other difference is, we just have more candidates that will get more votes. The next closest Republican to Clayton Fuller got 11.6% of the vote. And the next got 4.7%.

In California, instead of Fuller, with 34.9%, and Colton Moore all the way down at 11.6%, we might have Eric Swalwell at 13%, Katie Porter at 12%, maybe Tom Steyer at 10%, Matt Mahan at 8%, Xavier Becerra at 8%, Antonio Villaraigosa at 7%, maybe Betty Ye at 5% and Tony Thurmond also at 5%…

68% of people would have voted for Democrats, but that doesn’t matter, because the remaining vote is only going to two people, Republican Chad Bianco gets 17% of the vote, while Republican Steve Hilton gets 15% and now we have a general election with two Republicans.

We’re NOT Doomed (Wed March 11, 2026)

Doomerella learns that we, as Americans, have a whole lot of power. Well…she knew that already, but she seems to have forgotten, again, good thing I’m here to remind her.

I’ve referred friends, coworkers, and family to reach out to the gubernatorial candidates as well to voice their concerns.

I’ve reached-out to my congressional representatives to voice my concerns.

I’m raising awareness in general.

Any other suggestions? 2/2

Hi @ariellaelm.com! I wanted to thank you for bringing this to our attention. Because of this thread, as a constituent of California and Job Steward representing SEIU Local 1000, I’m putting in the work to resolve this problem.

I’ve contacted each gubernatorial candidate to voice my concerns. 1/2

Democrat Shawn Harris is headed to the runoff for MTG’s old district in Georgia. And Republicans flipped a seat on the Prince William county Virginia Board of Supervisors And together, they tell a very concerning story about California.

Georgia is not California, but Georgia special elections ARE jungle primaries, like California, and in this moment, specifically, like the California gubernatorial election. [at the bottom, there are two pictures in light blue Georgia on the Left in California on the right]

Shawn Harris is only going to the runoff because, even though there were other Democrats, no other Dem was viable. Clayton Fuller, his Republican opponent in the runoff didn’t win outright, ONLY because there were 13 Republicans in the primary, so his vote was completely split.

If you add up all Republican margin that didn’t go to Fuller, you get 24.8%, which would have prevented a runoff. Which, in Georgia we’re very happy didn’t happen… But in California, that would be a problem.

Yesterday’s election results in Georgia and Virginia do not bode well for California. I know, you’re probably saying “what?” but trust me, it’s connected.

Hate to tell you...

The American voters are who fucked us over.

Trump and the Republicans are reaping in their stupidity and the social engineering that got them to that level of stupidity.

‪Showing Up for Racial Justice‬ ‪@surj.org‬ · 6h BREAKING: We are proud to endorse anti-racist, pro-working class candidate Graham Platner for Maine Senate in the June 9 Democratic primary and an image of surj endorses graham platner with a picture of this mediocre privileged white dude with his cleaned up grizzly adams haircut and beard.

Showing Up for Racial Justice ‪@surj.org‬ Follow Graham embodies the kind of change we believe is needed among millions of white people in this country: a shift away from militarism and racism and toward multiracial working-class solidarity that explicitly rejects racism.

I have way too many mutuals with this group.

These are not our allies. This is cosplay allyship.

No one who has a Nazi tattoo, says racist shit about Black folks, homophobic shit about gay folks, and blames women for rape is ANY kind of ally, especially when they make excuses for what they do.

I could keep arguing with folks about primaries & Nazi tattoos or l can do what I have been doing for the last 10 years…PUT IN SOME WORK.

This is my 1st batch of GOTV postcards & they’re heading to Georgia.

It’s go time Dems!

Y’all know what to do!

#AllGasNoBrakes until the last vote is cast💪🏾😤

This is who the white/Left/‘progressive’ Dems back.

Platner, a man with neither the qualifications nor the character to be a Democratic Party senator.

Misogynist. Racist. Homophobic. Antisemitic. NAZI TATTOO.

Say NO to Platner.

Elect Gov. Janet Mills to the US Senate.

As much as we can and should blame the President for the disaster our country is becoming, remember:

If you refused to vote for Kamala...

If you voted third party...

If you stayed home in 2024...

If, God forbid, you voted for Trump...

THIS IS ON YOU!!!

Trump White House Reportedly Blocking Intelligence Report Warning of Homeland Security Threats in Midst of Iran War The White House is allegedly blocking U.S. intelligence agencies from warning Americans about rising terrorist threats at home, according to The Daily Mail.

I’m not saying this lightly & I’m not saying it to scare you.

From the moment the US dropped the 1st bomb in Iran it was “head on a swivel” for us here in America.

I know folks don’t want to hear that but y’all know l make it my business

I’m screaming 😭💀😂😂😂

Also crying at the reality 😩

I love how hard he's doubling down on high oil/gas prices. Its like he's running through a list of "what to absolutely not do as president if you wanna be popular" and trying to make sure to hit every item

Facts)👇

Why are non-Black voters so OFFENDED by the idea that Black voters are requiring people to work for our votes, too?

We are long overdue in making the Democrats prove they are the best option for Us. (And not just "the lesser evil")

This lady gets it.
