I just got a substack post from @JamalSimmons regarding this @washingtonpost article by @dylanewells @sarahellison washingtonpost.com/politics/…. He asks the question why Wells, Ellison or their editors could do this piece and not mention ONE Black content creator/podcast host/owner.

North Carolina's maps are very rigged - and Democrats still significantly over-perform on them.
Now, just imagine how they'll do once a new Democratic majority on the state supreme court strikes down the rigged maps in 2029.

HUGE: Democrats just won both chambers of the Wisconsin Legislature for the first time in 16 years.
David Crowley will be the state's first Black governor.

The count is now over in #NC03 & #NC05, with Dems Chuck Hubbard and Raymond Smith ahead of GOP Representatives Virginia Foxx and Greg Murphy... by 294 votes & 325 votes.
If these hold in a recount, Democrats will have won 11 of the state's 14 congressional seats.

Hindsight is 20/20: NC Republicans could have easily drawn a 9R-5D or even a 10R-4D map that would have withstood a blue tsunami (by drawing one more safe Dem seat in the Triad). Instead, by trying for a 11R-3D map, they're on track to end up in a 11D-3R hole.

Democrats won across the country in last week's midterms, but much of their Senate gains were concentrated in the Deep South, where Black voters turned out and supported Democratic candidates at unprecedented rates, writes @ElliscbIV.

Jack Nicholson refused payment for a 2‑minute cameo in Broadcast News, one that openly mocks multi‑million‑dollar salaries.
His surprise, uncredited appearance was kept out of every promo. One condition: wrap fast so he could ride back to L.A. and catch the Lakers that night.
Bullshit @SenBradley. The Wisconsin GOP did whatever the hell they wanted when in charge. Now @DavidCCrowley is running the show. Man, SYBAU!
Wisconsin Republican Senate Minority Leader @SenBradley on David Crowley saying he would sign a bill to redistrict congressional maps.
"I think David Crowley is starting off pretty rough with some of us...That's tearing down a bridge that he said he was hoping to build."

Watching provisional ballot after provisional ballot get thrown out because the POLL WORKER, not the voter didn’t initial the ballot makes me sick. In those cases, the voter did nothing wrong and was GIVEN the ballot by a POLL WORKER, the affidavit is signed by a POLL WORKER. That’s a preponderance of evidence it’s a legit vote.
