Judicial elections matter. Just ask this victim’s family. “Prosecutors recommended 15 years in prison, according to Hon, but Polk County District Court Judge Travis Kitchens sentenced the rapist to 180 days in jail as part of probation--no prison time.” www.fox26houston.com/news/father-...

Late-night update to Amy's Louisiana v. Callais analysis: the court has been asked on its interim docket to make its decision final immediately, which would give Louisiana more time to potentially adopt a new map.

New poll released from UT/Texas Politics Project this morning: Here is the U.S. Senate results:

I’d have to go back and count but not a running total. I can, however, do an estimated math of the classes I taught in the 14 years at SPC - both face to face and online - is roughly 85 and this is my 56 term (Fall, Spring, Summer I, Summer II, not counting winter and spring interims).
