BIG result, folks:

Bucks County, Pennsylvania, was ground zero for the conservative takeover of school boards & anti-LGBTQ policies in 2021, on the Central Bucks and Pennridge boards.

Dems flipped both boards back in 2023.

Tonight, Dems have ousted *all* Republicans from both school boards.

Please leave! All of you, that will lower the population of NYC to 7 million and make things affordable.

Devest your Airbnb's. Unload your Vrbo's. Ditch your Homestays. Rage quit your third "apartment" and just live in Florida or Texas. You belong there, honestly.

To the 41% who voted for Cuomo, that's your choice, but thanks for letting us know up front you believe in corruption and sexual abuse. It says a lot about you... and Staten Island.

In the 2 weeks after Mamdani won in June, 10k ppl signed up with @runforsomething.net to consider a run for local office - our biggest surge *ever*. Like it or not (& I do!!) he's shaping the future of the Democratic Party.

If you want something different, get other people to run.
