NEW: "What Bruce Blakeman's Private Militia Clusterfuck Says About How He'd Run New York" "A random executive order, suggestive of the threat of violence, that accomplishes nothing beyond sowing anxiety—whose governing style does that sound like?" hellgatenyc.com/bruce-blakem…

From North Hempstead to Southampton, town supervisor races highlight local election slates this fall, with incumbents seeking to ward off challengers in five contested heats. In all, voters will head to the polls in seven of the Island's 13 towns to choose who will hold the top job in their respective town. Local budgets and future development are among the prominent issues. Read more here: nwsdy.li/4BPSuOu (Photos: James Escher) . . . #longisland #longislandny #suffolkcounty #nassaucounty #election

Republicans are obsessed with lawn signs. Local GOP organizations are obsessed with telling their neighbors who they support. It's mostly just for show and to f*ck with Democrats. Usually means little. Dems just show up and vote. That's what matters most. #NYGOV

$442m to buy our elections and it constitutes just 0.045% of Elons wealth. That’s the equivalent of the median American household spending $92. If you can’t see the problem with this then I don’t know what to tell you.
🔴 News - Elon Musk donated another $76 million to support Republicans, raising his total contributions this cycle to over $442 million

"I don't mind trans people, I just don't want their existence shoved down my throat" Brother, it's conservatives shoving trans people down your throat. They can't shut the fuck up about them. It's every political podcast, rally, and advertisement. It's all they think about.

👀Republicans triaging #NY04 for #NY17 numbers are underwater for Jeanine Driscoll and Mike Lawler!!
Republican super PAC Congressional Leadership Fund is moving the money it has reserved in the NYC media market for #NY04 (Gillen) to #NY17 (Lawler), per sources CLF has roughly $1.3 million reserved in NY-04, per AdImpact. Cook rates it likely D, while NY-17 is a tossup.

Gillen is being challenged by the GOP town of Hempstead receiver of taxes Jeanine Driscoll. Gillen lost to a Republican in what was an open-seat race in the 2022 mid-term election; but won in 2024, when Black voter turnout was higher. Now, we're back to a mid-term election
Replying to @HouseInSession
Jeffries talked about the importance of rallying behind Gillen and getting out the vote . He also talked about what was at stake as Democrats seek to seize the House majority, and there was mention that Jeffries himself could become the first Black U.S. House speaker.
