See election results for ballot measures related to abortion and reproductive rights in California, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana and Vermont.

With fixed costs rising by ≥4.6%, the NLRB is facing budgetary Armageddon. The agency is already in a hiring freeze, and for the first time in a decade we are hearing rumblings of employee furloughs. We are DESPERATELY asking Congress to increase our budget in the coming weeks.

Tony Evers won Wisconsin governor's race by 3.5 points but Republicans will control 67% seats in state senate & 64% seats in state assembly. That's what extreme gerrymandering looks like

With today's AP call in Montana, it's official: In every state where voters were asked directly about abortion or an abortion-related issue, they backed the pro-abortion-rights side. That includes blue (CA, VT), swing (MI), and red states (KY, MT).

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Nope. One of mayor’s close political alliances financially backed Zeldin. Local party bosses abandoned areas like South BK despite calls for help. Let’s talk about that. The sooner we stop repeating false Republican talking points, the sooner we can flip these seats back blue.

On MSNBC this a.m., @NYCMayor suggested NY Democrats performed badly in the midterms because of the state’s bail laws: “That’s why we are losing this election.” Some progressives say Adams actually shares blame, arguing he legitimized GOP attacks by exaggerating crime issues.

NEW: data confirms 18-29-year-olds voted for Democrats more than *any other* age group yesterday. Young people literally prevented a Red Wave & saved Democrats. Full stop. If you know a young voter, please thank them.

What do you mean, "leave Twitter?" We've been given direct, unimpeded access to make the wealthiest man in the world entirely miserable every waking moment of his days and he can't get away without admitting this was all a sunk cost fallacy. Where else do you get to do this?

Is he just talking about verified users who get tons of mentions? I've never been anywhere near not seeing all notifications, at least when I mute the occasional slightly viral tweet

One of my favorite things about state wide races is hearing ridiculous state demonyms. "Arkansans", really?

So the Democrats won statewide with 51% of the vote and earned 30% of the state house. Can someone explain to me how Wisconsin is a democracy?

The actual language is that justices "shall hold their office during good behavior", which has just been *interpreted* to mean lifetime appointments since the founding

I'll be honest I didn't realize until just now that the constitution does not in fact explicitly set lifetime appointments for scotus justices

I just got an ad for a *specific line* on Trimet (FX2 on division)

Almost all states have now provided healthcare to low income folks via Medicaid expansion Southern Republicans’ choice to withhold this from their constituents who could benefit the most (due to high poverty & bad health outcomes) is one of the most immoral things I’ve ever seen

With the Democrats winning control of the Michigan state legislature for the 1st time in 40 years (and with Gretchen Whitmer re-elected), I'm told that one of the very 1st things—and perhaps the 1st thing—the new legislature will do is move to repeal Michigan's right-to-work law
