Moms for Liberty Shut Out Nationwide with Every Candidate Losing in 2025 Elections

In a stunning rebuke of the far-right education movement, Moms for Liberty (M4L) candidates failed to win a single contested race across the United States in the November 4, 2025 elections. According to official results, all 31 M4L-endorsed candidates who appeared on ballots in competitive races were defeated, marking the first total shutout for the organization since its rise to prominence in 2021.

Top Three Takeaways from the Article:

Moms for Liberty candidates lost all 31 contested races nationwide in the November 2025 elections, marking a complete national shutout.

Voters across party lines rejected the group’s divisive culture war politics, favoring candidates focused on education quality over ideology.

The results signal a turning point in public education politics, suggesting that the parental rights movement’s influence is rapidly waning.

Once hailed as a powerful grassroots force for “parental rights” in education, Moms for Liberty had become synonymous with book bans, anti-LBGTQ+ activism, and public school censorship campaigns. The group’s endorsements once carried weight in local school board elections, particularly in conservative regions where debates over critical race theory and gender identity had dominated public discourse. But this week’s results signal a dramatic reversal.

A Movement in Decline
Political analysts say the 2025 elections confirmed what polling data had hinted at for months: voters across party lines are increasingly rejecting the divisive tactics that defined Moms for Liberty’s national strategy. Once supported by GOP donors and conservative PACs, the group’s candidates were swamped by moderate and progressive opponents who ran on messages of inclusion, academic freedom, and depoliticizing classrooms.

This warms the cockles of my heart, glad to see these Nazi's losing and losing bigly.

IMHO, we're going to kick their patooties, I'm truly sensing a titanic shift in the country, and it ain't good for the repigs.

They were doing well when they were in stealth mode. They'll probably try to do that going forward. They need to be exposed for the religious zealots they are.

They will regroup, rebrand, and keep going — because when you have your marching orders from Almighty God to create a theocracy, you have to keep going.

One thing I learned in my first years at DU was about the theocratic movement in America, and their pet billionaire who was funding the homeschooling movement. I think his name was Rushdoony, and he’d been at it for 30 or 40 years by then.

What’s that old saying? Something about how eternal vigilance is the price we pay for liberty — yeah, that one.

and are saying go fuck yourselves, we don't want this culture war crap in our schools.
They can rebrand all they want, but they always give themselves away and I'm sensing a titanic shift in the country which is going against the repigs, MAGAt's and the Nazis, which are one and the same.

I'm just speculating here, but given their hateful agenda, it wouldn't surprise me.
