40. The previous post was highly misleading.

While technically accurate for a specific eight-month period, citing a "68% Trump voting score" for Conor Lamb is highly misleading, as his full-career alignment was only 22%. The statistic stems from a 2022 student newspaper opinion piece focusing on a small sample of bipartisan votes, rather than his overall voting record. Read the full analysis in the original opinion piece from. 🍒⛏️👨‍🍳

They could have just as easily said "on this particular weekend he voted with Trump 100% of the time"... but that would have been too obvious, wouldn't it?

He would have been far better, except he didn't get any BS stamp of approval... which I sincerely question the value of these days anyway.
