This is the most consequential one nationally IMO, being a swing state and all. the PA supreme court reversed our gerrymandered map a few years back.

The GOP needs to MAGA harder and conservatives need to give Trump way more money to save them from Mamdani.

His solution isn’t to end the shutdown, end the tariffs, end waging war on American cities, etc. etc.
His solution is to get his name on the ballot in 2028.

Really curious to see that Bucks county breakout. It seems that those reliable GOP leaning exurbs have disappeared in Loudoun and South Jersey so I wanna see if the pattern holds.

Bucks has some big races too. The sheriff race has somehow gotten some huge attention due to our current republican sheriff kissing trump's ass and inviting ICE into the county. and the AG has failed to prosecute some big cases which caused alot of commotion here. tons of school board and supervisor roles are up as well, hopefully all turn blue

Was not in real doubt but Prop 50 passes in CA. A number of Republican house reps are out of a job.

It was really interesting to listen to Mamdani’s speech and then hear CNN’s Van Jones immediately say that he “missed the moment to unite the city”. Yes, Mamdani was fired up and shouting. But I kept thinking I haven’t heard a speech like that since Obama in ‘06. I hung on every word.
You know who else is always criticized for “missing the moment” and not being a “uniter”? Trump. He doesn’t care about uniting people. He speaks to his base. He says what his base wants to hear. I think what Mamdani said tonight is exactly what the majority of his voters wanted to hear.
I really wish this movement wasn’t limited to NYC. If David Hogg had his way, we’d have Mamdanis on the ballot all over the country next year.

Quite a night for the Dems. Odd victories for people who aren't supposed to be popular, to be sure.
"My friends, we have toppled a political dynasty. I wish Andrew Cuomo only the best in private life. But let tonight be the final time I utter his name."
Haha, that was so much better than the standard 'my opponent ran a good race, but yay me' dreck. Nice to see all the bomb threats called in by magats didn't stop Mikie Sherill from becoming New Jersey's next Governor.

Seen on Facebook:
JD Vance's brother is losing by SIXTY points for mayor of Cincinnati.
He's getting hammered so badly I thought he was Pete Hegseth at a 10AM meeting.

Tonight's results have basically confirmed that there will not be any 2026 or 2028 elections
Interesting - the NJ Trump referendum was a nice 53-43 margin, but the state is not solid blue. There is a blue streak up the middle and near Philly and NYC, with the poor and rich areas red, except Princeton is an exception to the other rich areas as solid blue.

I liked this
- "we can face authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves"
- "No more will New York be a city where you can traffic in Islamophobia and win an election"
- "If there is any way to terrify a despot, it is dismantling the conditions that gave him power."
- "When working people have iron-clad rights, the people who extort them feel very small indeed"
- "most daming of all, I refuse to apologize for any of this."
We will leave mediocrity in our past. No longer will we have to open a history book for proof that Democrats can dare to be great.
Our greatness will be anything but abstract. It will be felt by every rent-stabilized tenant who wakes up on the first of every month knowing the amount they’re going to pay hasn’t soared since the month before. It will be felt by each grandparent who can afford to stay in the home they have worked for, and whose grandchildren live nearby because the cost of child care didn’t send them to Long Island.
It will be felt by the single mother who is safe on her commute and whose bus runs fast enough that she doesn’t have to rush school drop-off to make it to work on time. And it will be felt when New Yorkers open their newspapers in the morning and read headlines of success, not scandal.
Most of all, it will be felt by each New Yorker when the city they love finally loves them back.
Together, New York, we’re going to freeze the… [rent!] Together, New York, we’re going to make buses fast and… [free!] Together, New York, we’re going to deliver universal… [child care!]
Let the words we’ve spoken together, the dreams we’ve dreamt together, become the agenda we deliver together. New York, this power, it’s yours. This city belongs to you.
Thank you.
damn and he's only 33

New Yorkers sent a Middle Finger to Gramps last night. Trump is going to need his fifth "annual checkup" this year after last night.
Come on Grandpa, everyone has "Stolen Election" & "Rigged Election" on their Bingo cards, you know you're just dying to say it! How many times will Gramps call Mamdani a "Communist" today?
Mr. 37% also just admitted the shutdown was all the Republican's doings (which it is). Donald Trump is the projected and confirmed loser. The Trump effect. Nothing triggers MAGA like people voting for who they want to vote for. Trump hates the decisions made by we the people.
Dershowitz promised to blow his brains out on live TV if Mamdani won. Anyone know when his next television appearance is scheduled?

Spanberger margin stands at +15 with over 95% of the vote in. Sherrill at +13 with 96% of the vote in.
Prop 50 +32 points at 70% in (California will be counting for weeks).
If the GOP was looking for any good news out of this election there is really none to be found.

Mamdani is in Gracie Mansion and Trump is in The Epstein Files. Of course Trump blames everyone else for the losses.
This is why republicans don’t want Americans to vote.
