Democrats won big. If it holds through 2028, it's going to be interesting to watch all the tech giants pretend they're not a bunch of MAGA fascists.

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

Gen Z women aren't playing around.

Tonight proves what I’ve been saying since last November. It destroys the narrative that Gen Z is conservative. Obliterates the idea that Gen Z is MAGA.

Young people will vote for those who promise them a brighter future — and they’ll punish those who don’t deliver.

See you next year, Donald.

Mamdani in New York and the surging Greens in England are a sign that voters want something different. They saw the pandemic as a watershed, a revelation that 40 years of trickle-down neoliberalism has led us down a dead end. They want a readjustment, a New Deal. You could call them neo-Roosevelts!

Zohran Mamdani is the new Mayor of New York City!

The people chose change.

They voted in record numbers and proved that all the money in the world isn’t a substitute for class.

They want progressive policies that benefit everyone.

They want affordability.

They want a compassionate leader.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
