It's an honor to have the support of all seven Democratic county party chairs in the Capital District. Our united Democratic front, including the unified support of the Capital District’s Democratic leadership, is how we keep fighting back against extremism in all its forms.

The Trump Admin wants to turn the clock back to 2008 and let Wall Street run wild.
We all know how that ended – with taxpayers bailing out Wall Street while millions lost their homes and got fired from their jobs.
Donald Trump could be setting the stage for the next crash.

A quite startling overperformance for Democrats in tonight's special election for a state Senate seat in Kentucky:
Democrat Gary Clemons won 72% to 25%.
He was defending a Dem-held seat where Kamala Harris beat Trump by 5% last year.

CONFIRMED: Eileen Higgins, a Democrat, will be the new mayor of Miami.
She'll be the city's first Democratic mayor since the 1990s. She flipped the office from Republicans, and does so easily. She leads the DeSantis-endorsed Emilio González 59/41 right now with most ballots counted.

TN07 is a story about gerrymandering: the GOP cracked Nashville into 3 districts when it redrew the 2022 map, destroying the Dem seat there.
Fast-forward: a section of Nashville, which just 5 years ago had a Dem representative, is now voting Dem by huge margins but it's been designed to not matter.

The TX dissent is so unhinged it's making me queasy.
It's also wickedly antisemitic, mentioning "Soros" no fewer than 17 times, including gems like:
"Plaintiffs’ top expert Matt Barreto is a Soros operative. His CV confirms it. He expects to receive $2.5 million in his Soros piggybank."
