What's going on here is more sinister-it's old fashion sexism & racism By Dunne's logic Vallas wouldn't have conceded to @Brandon4Chicago There's a reason why every local news outlet called this race for @lenifor48th 3 days ago-it's over @48Ward stop enabling this now!

Dunne is Done! Now he'd have to win almost 90% of the remaining VBM in areas friendly to @lenifor48th We all know this- so when will Dunne and @48Ward do the right thing and congratulate her on becoming our next Alderwoman? @indivisible9IL @48thNeighbors

This right here ⤵️ And who does delaying the transition benefit? Does blocking Leni from getting to work serve the people of the #48thward? Why would anyone who lives in the 48th want this?

@BebopOtt It should be noted that the remaining VBM are in @lenifor48th strongholds, which is why all the local news outlets called the race 2 days ago The longer Dunne and @48Ward wait to face reality, the less time Alderwoman elect Leni will have for her transition next month

48th Ward Watch: New VBM Ballots counted today: 392 Dunne: +199 (50.7%) Manaa-Hoppenworth: +193 (49.23%) Dunne falls far short of the 70+% he needs to flip the race

@marydifino @lenifor48th Its also dangerous. We know how these "stop the steal" tactics are used and by whom. Sometimes we feel safe in our "bubble" — this is not safe. Joe should commit to coming together for the good of the ward and stop firing up his supporters. It's time to get to work.

I love math- so just to note: the morning of the election there was 2950 ballots still outstanding. Out of those - 2074 are from precincts @lenifor48th (@lenihoppenworth ) got more than 50+1. (She won those) the rest 876 are from the rest of the precints.

@localcelebrity @lenifor48th He didn’t get the memo about what this was supposed to say.

@BebopOtt He’s waiting to see if VBM will fall overwhelmingly his way, when his opponent is someone who helped get VBM in Illinois as a permanent option-and it will be VBM that increases the margin with which she wins by. Is he just tying to highlight @lenifor48th ‘s past hard work?

At every turn, we must fight fascism raising its head — Indivisible began in response to the 2016 Presidential election but we know the fight never ends. All politics is local. Not in our ward, @joedunnefor48.

We're not upset about it. Lol.

Huge CONGRATULATIONS to @lenifor48th for winning her race to become the next alderwoman of the 48th ward! Leni, we are so proud of you! We've been doing the work together for years and we're thrilled to see you taking it to Chicago City Hall. LFG! #48thward

This is the energy in Chicago rn
