The Democrat Party does not stand for working people or for women
I am an undeclared voter who left. Maggie Goodlander’s votes and her husband’s Afghanistan record are why I will not send her back on November 3.
The Democrat Party does not stand for working people. It does not stand for women.
I am an undeclared voter in New Hampshire. I used to vote Democrat. I walked away because the Democrat Party lost its way.
The Democrat Party does not stand for working people. The Democrat Party does not stand for women. It does not stand for common sense or normalcy. The only thing I reliably hear from the Democrat Party is hatred of Donald Trump. A party that sells itself as kind and inclusive has become anything but. The language is angrier, the positions are more radical, and the distance from ordinary life keeps growing. You cannot get my vote back by telling me Trump is the only issue on the ballot. He is not on this ballot. Maggie Goodlander is.
There are no moderate Democrats left who can hold the line. The radicals in their own party are consuming them. The moderates cannot separate themselves from the people trying to take the party over, and a lot of them have stopped trying. Democrat socialists want the Democrat Party. Look at this election. Abdul El-Sayed won the Democrat Senate primary in Michigan after years speaking at Democrat Socialists of America events, with Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib behind him, and a platform that includes abolishing ICE. He now says he is not a socialist. The orbit says otherwise. In Texas, James Talarico is the Democrat Senate nominee. His opponents have replayed remarks he made, and later renounced, that God is nonbinary and that there are six biological sexes. In New York, democrat socialists backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani swept Democrat primaries. This is not a fringe complaining from outside. It is the direction of the Democrat Party’s own primaries.
Do not forget the antisemitism. Since October 7, the activist left inside the Democrat Party has treated Israel as the villain and Jews who will not denounce Israel as the problem. In New York this year, the socialist primary winners ran on outspoken anti-Israel platforms. Mamdani, their patron, called pro-Israel groups “monsters.” Jewish Democrats and pro-Israel Democrats are being told the new litmus test is how far they will go against the Jewish state. A party that cannot police that is not the party of inclusion. It is a party being taken over.
The break for me was sex. There are two sexes. A woman is an adult human female. If a party cannot say that, it does not get my vote. The Democrat Party will not define a woman, will not say there are two sexes, and will not keep men out of women’s bathrooms, locker rooms, prisons, and sports. That is not a side issue. If you cannot define sex, you cannot defend the spaces and teams built around it. The Democrat Party does not stand for women. I am done pretending that is compassion.
Goodlander has already voted with that party. On January 14, 2025, the House passed the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, 218–206. It would have defined sex for Title IX athletics by biological sex and barred males from female teams at federally funded schools. She voted no. New Hampshire has moved to protect girls’ sports. Our member of Congress voted the other way. She also voted against a 2026 bill requiring parental consent before federally funded elementary and middle schools change a child’s gender markers, pronouns, or access to sex-separated facilities. She does not stand for women and girls. The Democrat Party does not stand for women and girls. She votes with it.
The same break applies at the border. Remember who opened it. Under Joe Biden, encounters surged into the millions, fentanyl moved with the traffic, and cities and states were left with the bill. I do not want that border opened again. I do not want another Congress that treats enforcement as the scandal and illegal entry as a paperwork problem.
Goodlander’s votes point the wrong way. She voted against the Stop Illegal Entry Act and against other Republican enforcement bills, including measures aimed at sanctuary jurisdictions. She has fought a proposed detention facility in Merrimack and called for Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to be removed. She did vote for the Laken Riley Act and the HALT Fentanyl Act. Those yes votes do not erase the pattern. If the choice is secure the border or manage the consequences, she has sided with managing the consequences. Working people pay for that. The Democrat Party does not stand for working people. She votes with the Democrat Party.
The rest of the record matches the party I left. She voted against the One Big Beautiful Bill, the law that cut taxes on tips and overtime, expanded the child tax credit, and put more money into border enforcement. She said Medicaid changes would hurt New Hampshire. Working people who wanted those tax provisions can judge that tradeoff. She voted against the SAVE Act, which required documentary proof of citizenship to register for federal elections. The House passed it 220–208 on April 10, 2025. She voted no.
She voted against bills to expand domestic energy production, against the Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act, and against the March 2025 bill that funded the government. She has done real district work on the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, PFAS, and water funding. That does not buy back the votes on sex, the border, taxes, and citizenship. The Democrat Party does not stand for working people, and it does not stand for women. Goodlander has not separated herself from it.
