Our new podcast has the DDHQ team's first reactions to the 2025 election results. It was such a good night for Democrats that Jay Jones, the damaged Dem attorney general nominee in Virginia, won VA by about the same margin as Kamala Harris did in 2024. zurl.co/UWubQ

The 2025 election is in the books! In our post-election podcast, the DDHQ team offers its first reactions to the results, including Zohran Mamdani's win in New York, which was driven by unusually large turnout among younger voters. decisiondeskhq.substack.com/p/2025-elect...

The DDHQ Podcast talked #NYCMayor with @michaellangenyc.bsky.social. With Mamdani holding a double-digit lead over Cuomo, the question for Election Day may not so much be who wins or loses, but whether Mamdani can break 50% & win something like a mandate. decisiondeskhq.substack.com/p/new-york-c...
