Reminder: terrific films like "Train Dreams" start with a story, which comes from a writer (in that case, Denis Johnson), who have to eat and pay rent to do their work.

Late result for anyone still awake: Na’Cole Thompson, the Democratic candidate in the mayoral race today in Leander, Texas, has won the election.
She got 57% and won’t need a runoff, with two Republicans adding up to 43%.

This has happened exactly a week after Democrats got an overperformance of 30 percentage points in a special election in Texas, flipping it.
RESULT: Democrat Chasity Martinez wins a special election for a legislative seat in Louisiana, 62% to 38%.
This was a district that Trump carried by 13% last year, so a big overperformance by Dems, but the seat was already Dem-held.
