Casting my ballot for @MattMahanSJ. It’s tempting to try to vote strategically, but in the end, I decided it’s more important to voice my support for the candidate who I think will govern best. Our political system needs this kind of feedback. I hope others do the same.

@jonfavs Can I suggest "elpistic"? Been working on a word to capture that feeling. Comes from Elpis, which is Greek for hope mixed with suffering. (I'm sure I'm taking some liberties.)

Vote for your favorite candidate.
Political pundits don’t make change happen, so you don’t need to vote like you are one.

“Officially, 88 deaths have been attributed to the Camp and Woolsey fires ... But then researchers examined the effects of the pollution the fires released into the atmosphere, and found that it led to the premature deaths of up to 1400 more people.” https://t.co/AGzPJZ3AP9

Yesterday, Los Angeles approved a contract for the cheapest solar power & energy storage in the U.S. The Eland project is expected to meet 6-7% of L.A.’s electricity needs, and to provide power for 4 hours after sundown.

And it’s less expensive than gas: https://t.co/RQJyOBAbJv
