Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night.

He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

I have now read a few dozen different takes from Republicans on last night’s election results and none of them have concluded that Trump is responsible for it in any way. Lots of lots of other takes and theories, but none of them include accountability for their infallible hero.

Big shout out to Utah Republicans, who greedily passed a fully gerrymandered map that includes an R+2 and an R+6 district, as they watched Democrats easily overcome those margins all across the country tonight.

If only Democrats were as competent as Republicans imagine them to be when they hallucinate them into communist fanatics.

This morning I can see 67 votes to convict on a bill of impeachment.

Trump has decimated Republican support in one year. EVERY county in both Virginia and New Jersey has moved blue, some by double digits! LFG!

Told ya

"AI made me believe in the human soul by showing me how a soulless art looks like" has never been truer.

"Good Morning! Last night was amazing in western/central NY - long time Towns flipped - Monroe Cty - outside of Rochester flipped seats Dem from long held Red to Blue. Here’s the best for organizers like husband and me - after 9 years… we flipped every seat in our Town that was still R. Here’s what has changed after 9 years. We started with 1 Dem on the Village Board and our D member of Congress. Village Board and Mayor (me) are all D State Sen and AssemblyMember - D County Exec. - D 2 County Leg for our town -D 2 Town Judges - D **Town Board, Clerk, and Supervisor! ALL D as of last night. This is why organizing, planning, and solid strategy works. 9 YEARS and many races that we didn’t win. So here’s the take away - our area was considered solid R until the last 5 years. KEEP GOING. There’s more of us than them and people need to know that there are good people who want to do good for the community. Sorry for the long post, but AMAZING NIGHT that restored a little more faith in our community and humanity. 🥲🥲🥲."

From a friend & client who is the mayor of her upstate New York town. Over the past nine years, her team of community organizers flipped EVERY RED SEAT in the city and county to BLUE, culminating in last night's final tally.

The good news just keeps on coming.

Seems like a good time for the Speaker of the House to swear in Rep. Grijalva.

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.

It didn't matter.

Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

you can win without billionaires supporting you

you can win without party leadership endorsing you

you can win unapologetically standing with every persecuted minority pundits say are too politically toxic to touch

we could do everything about this process differently if we wanted to

BREAKING: Assemblyman Cody Miller just won reelection to New Jersey’s LD-4!

Cody is proud to serve his community in the Assembly, and he’s ready to continue doing everything he can to fight for a better New Jersey.

CONFIRMED: Georgia Democrats have won their first statewide elections for non-federal offices since *2006.*

The two Dem challengers, Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard, have ousted two GOP Republican commissioners on the state's utility commission.

Trump’s energy moves rattle electric utilities The administration's push for data centers to source their own power is seen by some as a threat to utilities' business model.

The White House's push for data centers to build their own power plants is an almost perfect distillation of their preference for wealth inequality and historical / technical ignorance. Brief thread: www.eenews.net/articles/tru...

Politicians should probably get on Bluesky to get better in touch with the American electorate.

🚨BREAKING: Nova Scotia MP Chris d'Entremont resigns from the Conservative caucus to join the Liberals

That is amazing news. It gives the Liberals 170 seats minus the Speaker and they only need 2 more seats to pass the Budget

Everyone should pay careful attention to the Maine voter ID ballot measure (Prop 1). It is on track to lose -- thereby proving that the GOP claims that voter ID laws are overwhelmingly popular is a lie. Perhaps now the legacy media will stop repeating that nonsense.

Republicans thought they had a permanent hold over young men. They didn't.

Spanberger wins men 18-29 by 14%, Sherrill by 10%, and Mamdani by a stunning 40%.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

There’s a 50/50 chance he starts a war tomorrow to stop people from talking about the Democrats wins 😳😵‍💫🥺

Kansas Republicans drop push to enter nation's widening redistricting battle Top Kansas Republicans have given up for now on forcing a special session of the Legislature to redraw the state’s U.S.

WOW the hits keep coming for the GOP tonight.

Kansas Republicans have - at least for now - ended their redistricting push!

CNN has been dead to me for a while. Looks like I made the right choice.

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.
