there was a time when sacco was pretty equal to stack in terms of political influence, but that time is long past

now things are very obviously weighted in one direction, and soon all of north hudson will be a brian stack fiefdom

Magenta @magentab.bsky.social · 15h

yeah

and the stack annexation of north bergen would be complete

i still maintain that this more of a last minute pivot of an ailing machine than something that is gonna actually affect the final outcome

if 78 year old nick sacco could still deliver votes, then fulop should've done a whole lot better in north bergen

i feel like this may be the final blow to the sacco machine, and a way for stack to just immediately dominate in the power vacuum

(This is your daily Reminder that Sacco could barely deliver North Bergen in the primary to his allies, now he has to go up against Partisan lean and Brian Stack — who hates him).

NEW: Federal judge dismisses Drake's defamation case against Kendrick Lamar storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The issue in this case is whether "Not Like Us" can reasonably be understood to convey as a factual matter that Drake is a pedophile or that he has engaged in sexual relations with minors. In light of the overall context in which the statements in the Recording were made, the Court holds that it cannot.

general election debates are just a way to generate red meat clips for your base

so i guess it helps boost your base turnout by like 0.01%

the undecided primary debate watcher is quite common and makes sense

the undecided general debate watcher needs to be studied in a lab

i want to meet the people engaged enough with politics to watch the governor debates but also not partisan enough to already be decided lol

there is a lot of hubbub about whether this will hurt sherrill, but this will probably just be net-neutral honestly

primarily because nothing said in debates matter ever

Magenta @magentab.bsky.social · 19h

i kinda feel like the way sherrill attacked him definitely has people talking about it a lot more than if she just stuck with something less hyperbolic

it definitely gets a lot more out there compared to 2021, but just has the added risk of backfiring

Something important to note: Jack Ciattarelli was attacked over his role in the Opioid crisis back in 2021, however such ads didn’t receive wide attention. newjerseyglobe.com/governor/new...
