If Qayyum wins a seat, I have lost all faith in the political system. Party affiliation trumps qualifications.
As predicted months ago, total blowout Clark, Zrinski, 8-1 Council. Low R turnout, MIB Dem dominance, and MAGA only votes when Trump is on the ballot.
Republicans got smoked! Much like Obama, Trump can get himself elected but no one else. Shit Rs could even beat Nadeem.
Whoever runs the Republican Party in Northampton County should resign in shame. It was like nobody even campaigned.
Looks like Democrats swept on Council, and Tara did well. Not too surprising when one considers how Dump is trying to destroy everything that is holy, including even our White House.
All the bitching about Lori and she got the most votes lol.
This definitely appears to be a vote where people truly didn’t do their homework on candidates. They voted strictly just by R or D and, as you pointed out, Bernie, some did not campaign or raise money. For the Democrats, however, that meant nothing and people just voted for them anyhow. Maybe it’s better that Tara puts the final nail into Gracedale instead of Tom. Sad!
I lost faith when Republicans failed to hold tRump accountable in his (paid) attempt to overturn elections but I did vote yesterday proudly for democracy to live another day!
crazy how repubs stay home when they don't support their own candidates and can't for for a democrat? Simple minds!
Apparently, people want more crime, more taxes, boys in girls' sports and locker rooms, more illegal people, more killing babies, more lunatics running our country. Democrats to the rescue.
Why do people want all of this?
Because they hate Trump and are like jap kamikaze pilots they hate so much, they are suicidal.
No cheating here with mail in ballots lol over 75% going to Democrats
