What a speech.

I'm glad NYC had some sense.

I saw Cuomo's concession speech, he's acting like he lost by a razor thin margin.
The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.

It was more defending an NYC that doesn't exist and has already moved on.

Great night for Democrats and the country.

Still lots of political fights to be won, but tonight could not have gone better.
An opinion does not turn into a fact simply because the person holding it feels strongly about it.

Enough voters can recognize reality when it is staring them directly in the face.

But political object permanence for voters remains a problem.

It needs to be reminded to the VA GOP forever that noted psychopath Jay Jones won by a wider margin over his opponent than Glenn Younkin, a prospective "2028 presidential nominee," did over his. The GOP very narrowly walked this state in 2021 on the back of an unpopular Joe Biden and had it all unceremoniously stripped away by landslide margins the next turn Democrats had to take.

As an add-on to this: Jones outperformed Harris.

Of course not. Being exploited and abused has become so normalized for Americans that even mild progressivism is treated like radical action.

Not to take anything away from Bernie or Mamdani, of course.

Sad thing is that Americans won't learn and this is business as usual. Democrat wins and america shifts republican. Republicans messes up everything so america shifts democrat. Then the pattern repeats.

Everyone everywhere that won last night seemed to have outperformed Harris. People see how bad this admin is and are taking a stand. Im so jazzed up from what I saw last night. I dont have any hope of Florida changing but seeing other states whooping ass makes me happy

Good sign for the country. Really glad Mamdani won, overall a good thing for the left.

Honestly, what frustrates me about this is like...

People knew this was going to be as bad as possible a year ago. The Swing States involved had 4 years of the administration and then 4 years of his campaigning after that to see what was in store.

Why in the world are people deciding to course correct after the fact rather than stay the course when people knew what the alternative was?

Haha, wow. I wasn't expecting such a complete blow out. Hopefully this carries over into midterms next year as well.

My coworkers are going to be devastated. Most of them are convinced Democrat = Murderer. Although, one of them recently was angry at Trump over the food stamp situation, so maybe they're starting to realize.

To be honest though, it might annoy me just as much for them to change sides and suddenly claim they were right the whole time. lol

It means they cant just intentionally fuck over the residents of Jackson anymore.

Theyve just been not funding any of the water (or maybe it was power) infrastructure that theyve been punitively withholding for years.

Sadly the bulk of this is the result of the normal pendulum motion of the American electorate.

Except Mamdani who had a truly great campaign. He earned his votes.

Hopefully he can actually deliver some of his promises.

People genuinely thought Trump was gonna lower the cost of living. People are delusional of course but idk thats one explanation. Lets also not act like Trump didnt win by the skin of his teeth by 1.5%

The beatings will continue until morale improves. Despite good results yesterday, hands will remain on the stove to ensure the lessons will be ingrained by midterms.

Hope Kenny Klippy and Ryan Grim are having wonderful days now that their fave parties lost!
