Republicans thought they had a permanent hold over young men. They didn't.

Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.

This was a terrible night for VA Republicans. Lost every competitive house race. Lost 6 of 14 lean R districts. Lost every "Lean D" district. Miyares lost to Jones by 6.6 points (!!!?) in the AG race. Sears lost to Spanberger by over 15 points. Polls radically over-estimated R turnout based on 2024.

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

Gen Z women aren't playing around.

Was the whole world rooting for Mamdani?

Yes. They in fact were. In Canada. In the UK. In France. In Germany. In Ireland and many more countries as well as here at home in every single state.

I’ve never seen a mayoral race have this effect.

At least seven people are confirmed dead after a UPS cargo plane crashed in Louisville, Kentucky, on Tuesday in what appeared to be a failed takeoff. Officials say the MD-11 aircraft had three crew members on board.

Just hallucinatory hatred at this point.

I forgot that too, not one of us is immune to propaganda and disinformation and one big goal of all these corrosive lies is to distort our own image of ourselves as individuals and communities so we become too depressed and discouraged to fight
For a bit I forgot that the current political movement was won with a weak minority and is managed by annoying dorks who nobody likes who have terrible vibes. This video has 1.3 million likes and is a good reminder that better things are possible, even for those of us outside NYC. A good night!

AOC: We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind. It's not about Progressive. It's not moderate, it's not liberal. This is about do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And the assignment is you come together…

midnight update bsky.app/profile/did:...
UPDATE: Dems lead every city council race in Aurora, Colorado - and could flip a 7-3 GOP majority into a 6-4 Dem edge - including what would be a shocking upset of MAGA media star Danielle Jurinsky, whose claims of a "complete gang takeover" led Trump to call Aurora "conquered." #copolitics

Not sure Giuliani it's going to be around that much longer to troll, so any headline writers itching to call Mamdani "America's Mayor" better do it tomorrow

Do you want to laugh?

Democrat Aftab Pureval has been re-elected as the Mayor of Cincinnati.

His Republican opponent, Cory Bowman, is JD Vance’s half-brother.

A landslide loss: 81.7% - 18.3%

If we're going down this path, I'll mention that I called out Andrew Cuomo for bullshit threats against internet companies in 2008...

Nice to see the right are learning even worse lessons in a post election blowout - blaming the loss on their infighting rather than the fact the Muslim socialist they were endlessly racist towards offered people things they actually want

AOC: We know that Donald Trump has not only been convicted of committing crimes, but that the supreme court has given him a blank check to continue to commit crimes while in office. So we cannot underestimate the threat and the danger of this moment. But we cannot respond to that with cowardice.

A late night call I missed:

Democrats have flipped back the sole city council seat the GOP has in the Bronx.

Republicans had flipped this council seat in 2023, and it was their first seat in the Bronx since the early 1980s.

Man. The big papers setting fire to their entire legacy to cape for the biggest losers in history is hilarious shit. Imagine betting on the wrong horse so much and so often that you might as well be fucking the horse. The legacy media is out of touch with reality and the people of this country.
