Coworkers rushed to lift her to her feet, but she could barely walk. Pain radiated from the right side of her body, where she said she felt the impact most. Her supervisors were alerted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was in excruciating pain,” Vernon, 47, said. “It was very painful to walk on my leg because I lost a lot of movement in my right leg. And that’s what’s bothering me to this day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident and her employer’s response became a turning point that unraveled her life. The once-active Oakland native now spends her days in a wheelchair, living at an Alameda County skilled nursing facility with no income. Vernon blames her employer, Prospect Airport Services, for allegedly failing to follow California’s requirements for responding to workplace injuries. As weeks passed without her returning to work, Vernon’s job was terminated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s workers’ compensation system is intended to ensure employees injured on the job quickly receive medical care while claims are investigated. Benefits may also include partial wage replacement during recovery. But interviews with Vernon, several coworkers and a former supervisor suggest those protections may have broken down in her case, illustrating how workers can fall through the system’s cracks with devastating financial and medical consequences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vernon lost her housing, car and life’s savings after 22 years of working for airline services contractors at the Oakland airport, she said, including five years as a Prospect employee. “It’s unfair. I needed a lot of help throughout the process, and I felt like they failed me. I didn’t know where to begin as far as medical coverage, how to seek any type of support,” Vernon said. “I hit rock bottom. I became homeless because of that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most California employers are responsible for arranging prompt medical attention for a work-related injury. State law also required the company to give Vernon a workers’ compensation claim form within a day and report the incident to its insurance company within five days, both critical steps to beginning the benefits process. None of that happened, according to Vernon and a former supervisor. Instead, Vernon said her manager, Salesh Prasad, told her to go home shortly after her fall. He directed a coworker to drive her to the airport employee parking lot, where she was left alone in her car, with no clear guidance about medical care. She tried contacting Prasad in the days that followed, but he became unresponsive, she said, finally asking her to turn in her security badge. Attempts to reach Prospect Airport Services were unsuccessful. Unifi Aviation, which owns Prospect, declined several requests for comment. Unifi, North America’s largest provider of aviation services, operates at more than 240 airports. The Atlanta-based\u003ca href=\"https://www.carlyle.com/media-room/news-release-archive/carlyle-announces-strategic-financing-unifi-aviation\"> company\u003c/a>, which generates about $2 billion in revenue, is a subsidiary of the privately held Argenbright Holdings, its majority owner, and Delta Air Lines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear whether the company’s alleged failure to respond to Vernon’s injury as required by law was an isolated incident or part of a broader pattern. Failures to follow workers’ compensation laws are often the result of employers not properly training or overseeing their managers, said Jason Marcus, former president of the California Applicants’ Attorneys Association, whose members represent injured workers in the workers’ compensation system. “I’ve certainly seen my fair share of what we kind of refer to as horror stories,” said Marcus, who has nearly two decades of experience. “Somebody gets hurt, suffers a serious injury, and is kind of left to their own devices without any real help or guidance from their employer.

Coworkers rushed to lift her to her feet, but she could barely walk. Pain radiated from the right side of her body, where she said she felt the impact most. Her supervisors were alerted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was in excruciating pain,” Vernon, 47, said. “It was very painful to walk on my leg because I lost a lot of movement in my right leg. And that’s what’s bothering me to this day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The incident and her employer’s response became a turning point that unraveled her life. The once-active Oakland native now spends her days in a wheelchair, living at an Alameda County skilled nursing facility with no income. Vernon blames her employer, Prospect Airport Services, for allegedly failing to follow California’s requirements for responding to workplace injuries. As weeks passed without her returning to work, Vernon’s job was terminated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s workers’ compensation system is intended to ensure employees injured on the job quickly receive medical care while claims are investigated. Benefits may also include partial wage replacement during recovery. But interviews with Vernon, several coworkers and a former supervisor suggest those protections may have broken down in her case, illustrating how workers can fall through the system’s cracks with devastating financial and medical consequences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It sought to bar citizenship for babies born in the U.S. to parents who either entered the country illegally or who are living and working here legally with temporary visas. The executive order never went into effect because every lower court judge who reviewed it concluded, in the words of one judge, that it was “blatantly unconstitutional.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Citizenship, then and now,” Chief Justice John Roberts concluded, “was the right to have rights–to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land.’ We keep that promise today.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justices Clarence Thomas, Neil M. Gorsuch and Samuel A. Alito Jr. dissented. In Alito’s dissent, he wrote: “[t]his is one of the most important decisions in the history of the Court, and in my judgment, the Court has made a serious mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For more than a century, babies born in the U.S. have been granted citizenship based on the 14th Amendment, which says that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.” Initially introduced in response to laws in Southern states restricting the rights of formerly enslaved Black Americans after the Civil War, the Supreme Court ruled in 1898 that the 14th Amendment applies to all children born in the U.S. to parents “domiciled” within the country. This case was brought by Wong Kim Ark, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12015449/a-129-year-old-san-francisco-lawsuit-could-stop-trump-from-ending-birthright-citizenship\">a San Francisco-born man\u003c/a> who successfully defended his claim to citizenship — after officials claimed that the fact that his parents were Chinese nationals at the time of his birth disqualified him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now, only narrow exceptions existed for children whose parents were high-ranking foreign diplomats or were in the U.S. as an invading army.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://next.kqed.org/news/12089263/sacramento-county-seeks-dogs-sent-to-rescue-under-investigation-for-animal-abuse\">\u003cstrong>Sacramento County seeks dogs sent to rescue under investigation for animal abuse\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Sacramento County Animal Services has \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-i295jgO3jG55I7Xc-vCtZcVEDaXVA3_/view\">filed a legal demand\u003c/a> to retrieve dogs that were transferred to a “no-kill” rescue at the heart of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12088995/117-dog-remains-found-at-mirandas-rescue-during-multiagency-investigation\">sprawling multi-agency investigation into allegations\u003c/a> of animal abuse and fraud.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The filing alleges the dogs were transferred to Miranda’s Rescue through “straw” rescues without the county’s approval or knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early May, the Humboldt County Sheriff began investigating Shannon Miranda, the rescue’s owner, after two local animal advocates, Jenna Moore and Jennifer Raymond, went onto the 50-acre rescue property at night and dug up the bodies of eight dogs that appeared to have gunshot wounds to the head.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, investigators from the sheriff’s office, FBI, California Department of Justice, USDA and Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office served a second search warrant on Miranda’s property, recovering 117 dog bodies, 21 skulls, adoption paperwork and other evidence. “ The facts that have been uncovered are deeply disturbing, and I understand the community’s desire for answers, accountability, and justice,” Sheriff William Honsal said at \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=mEwSAYzEwY4umkw1&fbclid=IwY2xjawSv29dleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFoazl0Mm90TXdJblhGQk92c3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHpjmjUPZOmagRbfhPTDMj_qG8uKWisSi1w5RBncYw6HbMD5WE_MSh4A1Om1X_aem_qBr9zErXpswRVvGUc6EW7Q&v=YwUejiZ3Hng&feature=youtu.be\">a press conference\u003c/a> on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, 91 microchips have been recovered from the scene, he said.

This case was brought by Wong Kim Ark, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12015449/a-129-year-old-san-francisco-lawsuit-could-stop-trump-from-ending-birthright-citizenship\">a San Francisco-born man\u003c/a> who successfully defended his claim to citizenship — after officials claimed that the fact that his parents were Chinese nationals at the time of his birth disqualified him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until now, only narrow exceptions existed for children whose parents were high-ranking foreign diplomats or were in the U.S. as an invading army.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://next.kqed.org/news/12089263/sacramento-county-seeks-dogs-sent-to-rescue-under-investigation-for-animal-abuse\">\u003cstrong>Sacramento County seeks dogs sent to rescue under investigation for animal abuse\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Sacramento County Animal Services has \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-i295jgO3jG55I7Xc-vCtZcVEDaXVA3_/view\">filed a legal demand\u003c/a> to retrieve dogs that were transferred to a “no-kill” rescue at the heart of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12088995/117-dog-remains-found-at-mirandas-rescue-during-multiagency-investigation\">sprawling multi-agency investigation into allegations\u003c/a> of animal abuse and fraud.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The filing alleges the dogs were transferred to Miranda’s Rescue through “straw” rescues without the county’s approval or knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In early May, the Humboldt County Sheriff began investigating Shannon Miranda, the rescue’s owner, after two local animal advocates, Jenna Moore and Jennifer Raymond, went onto the 50-acre rescue property at night and dug up the bodies of eight dogs that appeared to have gunshot wounds to the head.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, investigators from the sheriff’s office, FBI, California Department of Justice, USDA and Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office served a second search warrant on Miranda’s property, recovering 117 dog bodies, 21 skulls, adoption paperwork and other evidence. “ The facts that have been uncovered are deeply disturbing, and I understand the community’s desire for answers, accountability, and justice,” Sheriff William Honsal said at \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=mEwSAYzEwY4umkw1&fbclid=IwY2xjawSv29dleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFoazl0Mm90TXdJblhGQk92c3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHpjmjUPZOmagRbfhPTDMj_qG8uKWisSi1w5RBncYw6HbMD5WE_MSh4A1Om1X_aem_qBr9zErXpswRVvGUc6EW7Q&v=YwUejiZ3Hng&feature=youtu.be\">a press conference\u003c/a> on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, 91 microchips have been recovered from the scene, he said.

In the \u003cem>Chatrie \u003c/em>case, police in Richmond, Virginia, used a so-called “geofence warrant” covering more than 70,000 square meters — more than 13 football fields — of a busy area to find an armed bank robber, vacuuming up data of everyone else nearby in the process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Geofence warrants are] the equivalent of going to every home, every apartment, every tent in the city,” Villaran said. “I have no reason to suspect that you were there; I’m going to search your phone anyway.

For decades, courts have generally held that information a person gives to a third party, such as a phone carrier or an internet provider, isn’t constitutionally protected — a principle known as the third-party doctrine. The court’s reasoning, he said, breaks from that assumption, at least for location data.[aside postID=news_12088503 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/260623-SJFile-02-BL-KQED.jpg']“It’s data that your phone gives to another company automatically as you move about the world,” Abbas said, adding that the court found that sharing it doesn’t surrender a person’s expectation of privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decision is narrow in scope. The justices ruled only that accessing the data is a search; they left it to a lower court to decide whether the specific warrant in the \u003cem>Chatrie \u003c/em>case was valid, a process Abbas estimated could take another five to seven years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The opinion is also limited to smartphone location data, leaving open how it applies to laptops, IP addresses or other digital records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Abbas sees broader stakes for anyone whose devices can be searched, especially travelers. He has represented clients whose phones were seized repeatedly at the border; one man, he said, had five devices taken before the government relented. Abbas noted that Customs and Border Protection agents can currently search and seize a phone based on what he called a vaguely defined “national security concern,” and that this is a standard he said falls short of reasonable suspicion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A ruling like this one, he said, “foretells the end of that practice.” He called it “another brick in the wall against that kind of lawless government surveillance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villaran noted that the Bay Area has long been a testing ground for this fight. In 2022, a San Francisco court ruled in \u003cem>People v. Dawes\u003c/em> — a case Villaran litigated for the public defender’s office — that a geofence warrant issued to the San Francisco Police Department violated both the Fourth Amendment and California’s electronic privacy law. It was the first time a state court suppressed evidence from such a warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12071979\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12071979 size-full\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/LaptopCellphoneGetty.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/LaptopCellphoneGetty.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/LaptopCellphoneGetty-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/LaptopCellphoneGetty-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">In Chatrie v.

She also noted that Google has largely stopped responding to geofence warrants. However, law enforcement agencies have made the request of other tech companies like Apple, Lyft, Snapchat, Microsoft and Yahoo, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/29/us/politics/supreme-court-geofence-warrant-cell-phones.html\">\u003cem>The\u003c/em> \u003cem>New York Times\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, which makes the ruling still relevant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that most folks would be horrified to know they were part of a huge dragnet search to see if they were in a certain part of the city at a certain time,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

The justices ruled only that accessing the data is a search; they left it to a lower court to decide whether the specific warrant in the \u003cem>Chatrie \u003c/em>case was valid, a process Abbas estimated could take another five to seven years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The opinion is also limited to smartphone location data, leaving open how it applies to laptops, IP addresses or other digital records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Abbas sees broader stakes for anyone whose devices can be searched, especially travelers. He has represented clients whose phones were seized repeatedly at the border; one man, he said, had five devices taken before the government relented.

In 2022, a San Francisco court ruled in \u003cem>People v.

The same day, the court issued a separate ruling allowing the administration to sharply limit who can seek asylum at the southern border.

Theresa Cardinal Brown, an immigration policy expert and nonresident fellow at Cornell Law School, said the TPS, asylum and green card rulings all relied on interpretations of existing immigration statutes — while birthright citizenship “is a fundamentally constitutional question,” requiring the court to overturn an over century-old precedent rooted in the 14th Amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most people that I know, including people who would like to see birthright go away, think it’s a long shot,” Brown said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12088944\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12088944\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1345\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty-1536x1033.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the National TPS Alliance rally at the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., on April 29, 2026. \u003ccite>(Alex Wroblewski/AFP via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What the rulings share in common, Brown said, is their target: people living in the U.S. under discretionary protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people who have spent a lot of time in the United States in these kinds of discretionary statuses — whether it’s humanitarian parole, deferred action, temporary protected status — are all at risk,” Brown said.

The same day, the court issued a separate ruling allowing the administration to sharply limit who can seek asylum at the southern border. A day earlier, it gave border officers more power to detain \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12088676/supreme-court-ruling-brings-new-challenges-for-green-card-holders-advocates-warn\">returning green card holders\u003c/a>.

The administration “wanted to kill off the TPS statute,” he said, and “this victory allows them to accomplish much the same result without having to go through Congress.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But advocates and analysts caution against assuming the birthright case will follow suit. Theresa Cardinal Brown, an immigration policy expert and nonresident fellow at Cornell Law School, said the TPS, asylum and green card rulings all relied on interpretations of existing immigration statutes — while birthright citizenship “is a fundamentally constitutional question,” requiring the court to overturn an over century-old precedent rooted in the 14th Amendment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Most people that I know, including people who would like to see birthright go away, think it’s a long shot,” Brown said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12088944\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12088944\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1345\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty-160x108.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/TPSSCOTUSGetty-1536x1033.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the National TPS Alliance rally at the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington, D.C., on April 29, 2026. \u003ccite>(Alex Wroblewski/AFP via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What the rulings share in common, Brown said, is their target: people living in the U.S. under discretionary protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of people who have spent a lot of time in the United States in these kinds of discretionary statuses — whether it’s humanitarian parole, deferred action, temporary protected status — are all at risk,” Brown said.

The 7-2 ruling will allow the companies to sue. “This case concerns only standing, not the merits,” Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote in the decision. “The regulations likely cause the fuel producers’ monetary injuries because reducing gasoline and diesel fuel consumption is the whole point of the regulations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case filed by oil companies, other fuel producers and 17 other states argued that the federal government exceeded its authority under the Clean Air Act when it granted California a waiver to set its own tougher auto emissions standards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Supreme Court agreed to \u003ca href=\"https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/121324zr_2bo2.pdf\">only examine\u003c/a> whether the fuel companies that appealed a lower court ruling have the standing to sue.

It’s also why so many on the left liked Sen. Cory Booker holding the floor of the Senate with an anti-Trump speech.

The political realignment is helping Democrats in off-year elections\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Both parties poured millions of outside dollars into these races, and that’s because off-year and special elections are hard to mobilize voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The $70 million spent on ads alone in Wisconsin was the \u003ca href=\"https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/most-expensive-judicial-election-ever\">most ever for a judicial race\u003c/a> and lots of it came from outside the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Florida, the 6th congressional district election for Waltz’s seat — the one Trump and the GOP were most concerned about — would have been in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.fec.gov/resources/campaign-finance-statistics/2024/tables/congressional/ConCand8e_2024_21m.pdf\">top 20 for most spending by a single candidate (PDF)\u003c/a> for any House race the \u003cem>entire\u003c/em> 2024 cycle, and that was over 20 months. This was two. The Democrat raised about $10 million in that time and spent more than $8 million, while the Republican spent less than $1 million, as of the candidates’ March 12 filings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turnout wasn’t bad. It’s always lower in those kinds of races than in presidential elections — and that, of course, was the case in both states. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2025/04/01/nx-s1-5345862/wisconsin-supreme-court-crawford-schimel-election-results\">In Wisconsin\u003c/a>, roughly 2.4 million ballots were cast (with 95% in), about 30% less than in November. In Florida, fewer than 200,000 voters went to the polls in each congressional district. In 2024, it was \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/projects/election-results-2024/florida/?r=0\">more than double that\u003c/a>. So money isn’t everything.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s a reminder that firing up the bases is key in off-year and midterm elections —and that the realignment of college-educated voters, who have higher turnout rates, toward Democrats is helping them in these kinds of elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. Voter ID is an issue that continues to heavily lean right\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It should be noted that the same voters who voted for a liberal judge in Wisconsin also \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/04/01/us/elections/results-wisconsin-question.html\">overwhelmingly approved\u003c/a> a measure requiring voter ID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s something that’s already state law; this enshrined it in the state constitution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/02/07/bipartisan-support-for-early-in-person-voting-voter-id-election-day-national-holiday/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew poll\u003c/a> last year found 81% in favor of requiring people to show government-issued photo ID to vote. That included 69% of Democrats. Few things get that level of bipartisan support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, yes, Democrats can take Tuesday as one of the first bits of good news they’ve had since the 2024 presidential election. But they also have to be aware that there are lots of issues that are still center-right, including voter ID and many measures meant to curb immigration — especially when the party is seeing \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/16/politics/cnn-poll-democrats/index.html\">record\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/5224072-democrats-low-approval-rating/\">lows\u003c/a> in \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/democratic-party-hits-new-polling-low-voters-want-fight-trump-harder-rcna196161\">favorability\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The political realignment is helping Democrats in off-year elections\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Both parties poured millions of outside dollars into these races, and that’s because off-year and special elections are hard to mobilize voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The $70 million spent on ads alone in Wisconsin was the \u003ca href=\"https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/most-expensive-judicial-election-ever\">most ever for a judicial race\u003c/a> and lots of it came from outside the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Florida, the 6th congressional district election for Waltz’s seat — the one Trump and the GOP were most concerned about — would have been in the \u003ca href=\"https://www.fec.gov/resources/campaign-finance-statistics/2024/tables/congressional/ConCand8e_2024_21m.pdf\">top 20 for most spending by a single candidate (PDF)\u003c/a> for any House race the \u003cem>entire\u003c/em> 2024 cycle, and that was over 20 months. This was two. The Democrat raised about $10 million in that time and spent more than $8 million, while the Republican spent less than $1 million, as of the candidates’ March 12 filings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turnout wasn’t bad. It’s always lower in those kinds of races than in presidential elections — and that, of course, was the case in both states. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2025/04/01/nx-s1-5345862/wisconsin-supreme-court-crawford-schimel-election-results\">In Wisconsin\u003c/a>, roughly 2.4 million ballots were cast (with 95% in), about 30% less than in November. In Florida, fewer than 200,000 voters went to the polls in each congressional district. In 2024, it was \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/projects/election-results-2024/florida/?r=0\">more than double that\u003c/a>. So money isn’t everything.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s a reminder that firing up the bases is key in off-year and midterm elections —and that the realignment of college-educated voters, who have higher turnout rates, toward Democrats is helping them in these kinds of elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>5. Voter ID is an issue that continues to heavily lean right\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It should be noted that the same voters who voted for a liberal judge in Wisconsin also \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/04/01/us/elections/results-wisconsin-question.html\">overwhelmingly approved\u003c/a> a measure requiring voter ID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s something that’s already state law; this enshrined it in the state constitution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2024/02/07/bipartisan-support-for-early-in-person-voting-voter-id-election-day-national-holiday/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pew poll\u003c/a> last year found 81% in favor of requiring people to show government-issued photo ID to vote. That included 69% of Democrats. Few things get that level of bipartisan support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, yes, Democrats can take Tuesday as one of the first bits of good news they’ve had since the 2024 presidential election. But they also have to be aware that there are lots of issues that are still center-right, including voter ID and many measures meant to curb immigration — especially when the party is seeing \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2025/03/16/politics/cnn-poll-democrats/index.html\">record\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/5224072-democrats-low-approval-rating/\">lows\u003c/a> in \u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/democratic-party-hits-new-polling-low-voters-want-fight-trump-harder-rcna196161\">favorability\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
