i'm not understanding this though...the far right is still being bankrolled by some pretty dark money and I can't see either party supporting taking money out of politics at this point...they all benefit.

Citizens United was a McConnell-Koch Brothers project. They thought that if they could unleash "Free $$$peech", the Republicans would benefit.

Then dark money poured into the McSally-Kelly Senate race in Arizona and they realized that the Democrats didn't do their usual self-righteous thing. Instead the Democrats got to work to set up their own Koch-style dark money organizations.

Now that the Republicans are seeing that they're losing races in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Arizona, some of them have decided that they have unleased a monster.

In the last term, a moderate Republican and a liberal Democrat both proposed a 28th Amendment to reform campaign finance laws.

From your keyboards to the Gods' eyes.

I hope this is true.

But now the Dems...having tasted the sweet sweet nectar of dark money brews will be less likely to give it up either.

I just don't believe that. Greed does not trump all, if that were true, we'd all still be surfs.

Americans are good at learning lessons. Their problem is retaining the lessons.

About 50 years ago, both parties decided that sunshine was the best disinfectant and a lot of reform laws to clean up politics (and politicians). Those "sunshine laws" and Freedom of Information Act statutes have a bullseye on them.

DeSantis signed a bill that exempted his own travel records from public disclosure:

And Sarah Huckabullshit Sanders signed a similar bill to keep the sunshine off her travel records:

With McCarthy and Pelosi out of the Speaker's office, their might be an interest in reforming some of the fundraising rules and maybe even a Constitutional Amendment out of the House. Of course, Schumer and McConnell are also big in the dark money game, so it might have to happen after they are gone.

Ohio also voted to make pot legal.

You know in the movies, when the little guy keeps getting knocked on his ass, and all his cronies are shouting at him to stay down....

After a majority of Ohio voters on Tuesday passed Issues 1 and 2 enshrining abortion rights in the state constitution and legalizing recreational marijuana usage, respectively, Republicans in the state are vowing to push back on the measures in upcoming elections. "This isn't the end," Ohio Senate President Matt Huffman said in a statement, per Ohio Statehouse Bureau Chief Karen Kasler. "It is really just the beginning of a revolving door of ballot campaigns to repeal or replace Issue 1."

It's just kind of staggering that these politicians insist on thinking they can win with 1/3 of 1/3. It's like some kind of political malpractice or something,

So reproductive rights, what, 7 or so, troglodytes 0.

New Jersey Republicans went into Election Day with high hopes, believing they could end Democratic majorities that have endured for 20 years.Instead, Democrats flipped five seats in the Assembly, allowing the party to increase its control of that chamber, and reclaimed the 3rd District Senate seat they lost in 2021...
