This made me LOL. Obviously NC is correctly ranked, but I also appreciate the maker’s real disdain for quadrilaterals.
State shapes ranked best to worst.

It’s a fair point. New York and Florida are basically the same, except for our 24/7 subway system, one of the nation’s largest public hospital systems, a higher minimum wage, stronger worker protections, universal 3-K, paid family leave, paid sick leave, and paid prenatal leave.
Gov. Ron DeSantis: "My budget's $117 billion. New York State's budget's $268 billion. That's more than twice the budget. Obviously, they have heavy taxes. The question is, are you getting twice the services living in New York?"

Q: I’m told that Vivek Ramaswamy left you a congratulatory phone call. Have the two of you spoken at all? Governor-elect @AmyActonOH: We can’t normalize behavior like this. It was so beyond the pale, so no, I have no intention of speaking to him. Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.

Oh my goodness 😭 Thank you for sharing this and for letting us really feel the joy and the loss with you
For years, my dad battled Parkinson’s disease. On Election Night, I got to tell him, “Pop, we won.” This morning, he passed away. A part of me believes he held on just long enough to see his son make it to Congress. He won’t be there when I’m sworn in. But I know he’ll be standing right beside me. Rest easy, Daddy. I’ll take it from here. These next two years are for you ❤️

Can we all take a second to recognize the powerhouse that @abreezeclayton is? Elected at 25 to be North Carolina’s State Party Chair, she prioritized recruiting top candidates and led to major gains for Dems.
North Carolina Democrats with four of the ten biggest upsets in the country! Five of the top eleven!

Trump took 5 deferments to keep from serving in Vietnam so you can shove that tough guy talk up your ass. You are a war criminal. Tick tock, No Tab Pete ⏰⏰⏰

Hi, I’m Ken McCool, and I’m the one who defeated Tricia Cotham on Tuesday night. I’m 28, a lifelong Matthews resident, small business owner, and former town commissioner. I’m headed to Raleigh to lower costs, pay our teachers what they deserve, and finally put an end to the corrupt politics that have held North Carolina back. Follow along as a new generation of leadership steps up to take on North Carolina’s biggest challenges!

NEW: Multiple members of Congress say enough Republicans will vote to successfully remove Trump from office upon impeachment due to growing frustration with Trump and to allow JD Vance to run as an incumbent, per Rich Baris.
