Met a new voter today.

@ritzritz___ @JiananShi Unless there's an identical twin I don't know about, I've been at the ward office all day attending to constituents. As the kids used to say, pics or it didn't happen.

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

This is a hilariously bad lie to tell because it didn't happen and @JiananShi knows it didn't. But also, Latinas don't all look alike, you know.

WOW - the current sitting alderman Anabel Abarca (@Anabelfor12) walked inside the early voting location today & started passing out her lit! This blatant electioneering is an example of why a vote for Anabel is a vote for more of the same. Punch 51 for Julia Ramirez!

@NewDayConway @RecklessRecords You earned an extra awesome point in my book with the Taylor Swift album. I think I bought several of my The Cramps albums at Reckless.

From @ndblumberg: @RevBrewChicago provides its carbon-rich byproduct spent yeast to reduce the amount of phosphorus in the water MWRD treats. If there’s too much phosphorus in the water, that can feed microorganisms that can harm waterways. https://t.co/xZxTdBgpsA

Honored to announce that @TammyDuckworth has endorsed my campaign!

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

@53viroqua The half (1/8?) moon window at the top both bothers me but also makes me really happy.

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

I'll take "Things that Anabel couldn't have physically done but nice try" for $100, Alex.

I think the club meets on Tuesdays at Nicky's. BYOB.

According to Chicago Mag, I am “from the right” despite being a lifelong Democrat and Obama stan.

I guess being a moderate Dem in Chicago means one is right wing?

@liz_butlerAICP It's almost as comical as this one that a) conveniently forgets I resigned from my former employer and b) I have 10 (and counting) of the largest unions endorsing me and come from a union family

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

Endorsement Alert!
Excited to announce that ATU Local 308 has endorsed my campaign.

Once an Orange line girl, always an Orange line girl. #atulocal308

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

@mosermusic @aldabarca Yes.

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

@mosermusic @aldabarca As I mentioned at the LWV forum, we may need more city attorneys who have an environmental background/expertise in the subject matter. Agree that the Dept of Environment needs to be reinstated. Cannot say $10 mil is the number (could be more/less) need more data to propose budget

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

@mosermusic @aldabarca Having been before AH, the city attorneys (all whom I respect) do have their hands tied IF the level of pollution is not met. What that level is, I am quite interested in finding out.

[Anabel Abarca @Anabelfor12]

I appreciate that in the year of our Lord 2023, it is a simple reused paperclip stuck inside my 8k tv that is letting me watch the #SuperBowl

Go banana! I mean, Go Orange! That said, this should be in the 90s for all lined.

[Commuters Take Action @ctaaction]

Yesterday, the CTA L lines ran:
87% Blue
85% Brown
93% Green
93% Orange
89% Pink
79% Purple
75% Red
60% Yellow
... of scheduled trains. Riders deserve more accurate schedules.

@mosermusic @aldabarca Going to type up my answers and I'll attach to my tweet.
