We talk the Georgia Runoff, Ye on Tim Poole and more
Young voters delivered on President Joe Biden’s hopes they would turn out in the midterms, helping to win key Senate races and fending off a Republican bid to wrest full control of Congress.
Voters under 30 were decisive in Democratic Senator Catherine Cortez Masto’s win in Nevada -- which officially secured the party’s hold on the chamber. And Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock might not have been able to force a December runoff against Republican challenger Herschel Walker without them.
The 2022 United States elections were a set of elections that were primarily (with the exception of absentee balloting) held on November 8, 2022. During this midterm election year, all 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the U.S. Senate were contested. Thirty-nine state and territorial gubernatorial elections, as well as numerous other state and local elections, were contested. The results will determine the 118th United States Congress. This was the first election affected by the 2022 U.S. redistricting that followed the 2020 U.S. census.[1] A predicted red wave election did not materialize, and the race for U.S. Congress control has been closer than expected.[2][3][4]
While midterm elections often see the incumbent president's party lose a significant number of seats in Congress,[5] preliminary results instead saw Democratic Party candidates dramatically overperform these historical trends.[6][7][8] Meanwhile, Republican Party candidates that were backed by Donald Trump or that denied the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election underperformed compared to election analysts' predictions of a more Republican-leaning national environment and Republican expectations.[1][2] Both general turnout and among young voters (18–29) was the second-highest (after 2018) of any midterm since 1970.[9][10]
Issues that favored Democrats included significant concern over extremism and a lack of respect for democratic norms among Republicans, along with abortion rights and a potential Trump 2024 presidential campaign.[3][4][11] The elections continued trends starting in 2012, in which Republicans made gains among the working-class, especially whites but since 2016 also working-class minorities like Hispanics,[12] while Democrats continued to improve among affluent and college-educated whites.[2]
Recorded history of the Chubb family in North America dates back to 1775. Nicholas Chubb, the oldest known ancestor, is listed as a free colored male, head of a household on the 1820 census of Caswell County, North Carolina.
John Henry Chubb, along with his wife, daughter and eight sons were originally in North Carolina. Kenneth Jones, another descendent of the Chubbtown founders, researched the family’s history and found that the 1830 census listed Chubbs living as free blacks in North Carolina. The Chubbs and other free blacks journeyed to Georgia and settled near a creek in the northwest corner of the state sometime between 1850 and 1864.
According to records of Floyd County, where Chubbtown is located, Henry Chub (spelled with one b), one of the original eight sons, purchased 120 acres for $900 in 1864, before the end of the Civil War.
The settlement grew to include a church, school, post office, meeting hall and a lodge. It also had businesses such as a saw mill, cotton gin, wagon company, blacksmith, grist mill, syrup mill and a company that made caskets. The settlers farmed the land and were self-sufficient.
During the Post-Reconstruction period the Chubb brothers continued purchasing real estate to become the self-sufficient community known as Chubbtown. The Chubb family remained and prospered in Floyd County, Georgia, while many southern blacks were seeking prosperity in the north. The town was spared destruction by the Union Army during the Civil War.[5] The family's prosperity declined after 1916 when a devastating flood destroyed

Why I am running for Idaho House District 22
I am running because I am an everyday Idahoan, born and raised right here. My whole family lives, owns businesses, recreates and gathers here. I teach and own a house in the same neighborhood of Southwest Ada County, Legislative District 22. I love this state and am ready to get to work, giving back to the place and people that have given so much to me.
I love and care about people. As a middle school teacher, I am well versed in leading, meeting people where they are, inspiring self-advocacy, and encouraging everyone to find their voice. My training as a theatre artist has taught me to care about the stories of others, to find a way to relate no matter how different we may be, and present those stories as though they are my own. This is the work of a Legislator.
