Out of 10 pro abortion state measures 7 passed (one still undecided i think), and only 1 anti abortion measure passed.

We won’t have to vote any more, so all those people who never wanted to vote in the past won’t need to worry their little heads any more.

Colorado enshrined the right to abortion and removed anti-gay marriage language from their constitution.

Massachusetts passed an unprecedented measure allowing ride share drivers to unionize.

Here in Seattle, most of the local and state elections went the way I was hoping. We got a governor who sued the Trump administration almost 100 times while he was attorney general.

Delaware elected Sarah McBride, who is the first open transgender representative in Congress.

Georgia district attorney Fani Willis, who has been trying to prosecute Trump for trying to overturn the 2020 election, won reelection.

Washington Congressman Dan Newhouse, one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach Trump (and one of two in that group who survived the subsequent midterm elections), successfully defended his seat again against a Trump-endorsed opponent. That’s at least one Republican in the House who doesn’t always rubber-stamp the party agenda.

In Missouri, a red state…

Missourians vote to increase minimum wage, require paid sick leave

Nebraska got weed and another state elected the first openly transgender U.S. Representative. Tlaib retained her seat.

Also, I learned that a grade school classmate won a state rep seat in one of the midwest swing states earlier and that’s good news to me, at least.

Kentucky amendment 2, which would have redirected public funds to private schools, failed miserably. Of all the red states, Kentucky seems to be somewhat unique in its’ strong resistance to Republican attacks on public education. It is, after all, why we have a Democratic governor. I only hope that continues to hold true.

Hopefully liberals will wake up and see they can’t beat fascism, they have to embrace leftism if they want to beat it.

The people want populism and they no longer want the status quo. The right capitalized on this while the liberals went the moderate-right route, and it failed them. The only solution left is to embrace left wing politics. Unfortunately, I doubt the democrat party will be to keen on the idea of becoming left wing.

The west coast stuck to its guns almost completely. Mark Robinson and Kari Lake lost their races incredibly enough.

Biden got some big stuff done with chips, infrastructure investment, and more. Unless Trump starts tearing down bridges and forcing people to remove heat pumps, some of Biden’s stuff will be very difficult to reverse, physically or politically.

It gives the boomers another chance to solidify their legacy as the worst generation in human history. In a way that helps all of us.

Liberals are ripe for radicalization and joining Leftists. Not all, of course, some are shifting rightward, but many are disillusioned and shifting left.

For anyone reading, I can give a basic intro to Marxism reading list if you want. For starters, I recommend Blackshirts and Reds. To know fascism, who it serves, how it rises, and how to stop it is immensely useful.

Maybe we’ll finally wake up and realize this country was not built on good intentions and is operating as intended.

The heat death of the universe will eventually come
