@Brewfan0419 I’m torn because we reward their “lesser evil, vote blue no matter who” by letting them get away with this. But I also do HATE Tiffany. So I will pinch my nose and force myself to vote.
But every election pushes me closer to wanting to teach the establishment a lesson.
Asked what his message is to Hong voters, Gov. Tony Evers replies: "Yeah, they have to play along. I mean, not play along — they have to be part of it."
"Is David gonna get behind some of the things she talked about? No. But, at the end of the day, the big issues are something that I'm sure she feels strongly about."
@Schill_26@Brx98847@sage_alex Remember when betting markets had Hong at 90% chance of winning last night? And polls had her up 20 points? Stop relying on polls to tell you who’s “electable.”
I think the lesson the Establishment should take from Wisconsin is that Progressives are on your asses.
Francesca Hong performed spectacularly. The margin of victory took everything David Crowley and the Establishment (Hard ER) had to slow down the Democratic Socialist wave.
I'm not a Democratic Socialist. But Dr. King was.
@yyyonz@BenjaminPDixon@DavidCCrowley Yeah, no I get that! To him it’s a signal that Wisconsinites liked his platform. I don’t think half of the Crowley voters could name a SINGLE thing he stands for. But yeah, we definitely need to fight tooth and nail to force him to be even slightly more progressive.
@Rybread_26@keisisqrl That’s not the point I’m making. I’m claiming that people who want to “end Thanksgiving” simply mean to make it a neutral holiday. Drop the meaning of it being established and modeled after the colonization “feast.”
@TheNintendoNer4@dnamas5@Ericrse37986 They won’t win the presidency if they can’t even win in a swing state. She could have at least said a nice thing about Hong instead of dog entirely deflecting.
She can do what she wants! It’ll come back to bite her when Tiffany refuses to certify election results
As an electrical engineering working with power systems and the grid:
This Wisconsin election will affect EVERY state on the MISO interconnection. That include you Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, even Canada.
So no, AOC and Bernie, this was not just some “local race.”
