The point of this piece is for elected leaders to see “look. The other part of the ATL governance deal is done with this. You need to make it official.”
A lot of yall will be disappointed when your council faves go along with this.

Why would the chairman of Cox write an anti transit hit piece?
Idk… but Cox owns autotrader, Kelley Blue Book, and Xtime(system a lot of srvc centers use to manage car maintenance info).
Cox also invested 350 million dollars into… Rivian (Andre Dickens’ fave).

The chairman of Cox Enterprises, parent of the AJC, is using the news outlet to condemn Beltline rail. City leaders need to see how ridiculous this is. Arguing against rail in a city that's starved for its growth, and that is already funding it with a tax, is bad enough. 1/

No public restrooms, water fountains, benches, picnic tables, and certainly not rail. And the billionaires and property owners want to keep it that way: privatized, exclusive, not for the people who already lived here or could afford to if we planned it that way.

Read part of the “about us” page and thought I was having a stroke.

Anyways, I’m just spitballin here…
But this is teeing up the solidification of a position among the city’s non elected leadership: beltline rail should be abandoned.
The Norwood council move was a flare.
It’s all very similar to the Public Safety center process.

@MattHasTheShoes I haven’t looked at every precinct ofc, but this has to be one of the closest set of numbers…

S/o to the AJC for this precinct vote data. In my area of Decatur, Thurmond almost came in *behind* Duncan.
English
The more you go through Dekalb, the number of precincts where Thurmond actually came in fourth is a bit stunning.
Really great signs for Esteves though to have done so well all over the county.

This is pretty much how acyn rolls. Bc ultimately the tweets are ads for the snipping service he uses and meidas…
80/20 odds that whatever he puts in quotes is actually *not* what happens in the vid.

I’m begging people to not take the captions of clip aggregators at face value and actually watch the videos. In reality Trump says, “He’s, uh, got a very, uh — a person I’ve known for a long time.” As in, Don Jr’s fiancée.

NEW: The Colorado Democratic Party has formally condemned and censured Governor Jared Polis for granting clemency to Tina Peters.
Polis is hereby banned from speaking or being honored at party events.
90% of CDP central committee members voted to reprimand Polis.

Actually Miracle lost
The non-partisan tag worked as intended by confusing voters
ALSO
the Georgia Dems, again, suck at voter education and they believe they can pop up every two years and speed run a campaign
It doesn’t work like that, a terrible night for GA Dems, wow
The Last of the Black Iowans 🤞🏾🌽@byst
lol aight last political tweet fr I think Miracle wins, which will be great But the fact that Jen isn’t winning is a failure at the party level And a lot of y’all have this weird thing where you don’t criticize the Georgia Dems When, you should Coach em up so they don’t suck

Ben-Gvir had been releasing videos showing him and his men abusing Palestinians countless times, but as soon as it happens to Europeans from the flotilla, suddenly all the Israeli liberals start convulsing that he’s ruining their Hasbara, not that he’s brutalizing human beings.

The only defense of Jen Jordan I'll offer is this, that Sarah Hawkins Warren is a more dem coded name.
English
He also appears to have a multi racial and generational coalition behind him, which is huge!!
vainglory@AinLyin
I agree. Ossoff lost his first congressional race and won senator 3 yrs later. Esteves did very well. He ran a great campaign and got his name out there.
English
I’m not really over this. The people parroting this idea the most are almost all white.
And I think that’s a space for self-reflection about your own attitudes and ideas on race & relationships.

Tired(and racist): Miracle is a Black name so Black Dems picked her and didn’t know what to do with Sarah and Jen. Wired: look at the ballot layout. A lot of people probably made an educated guess of association based on this.

Bottoms under 50% in Fulton.
Thurmond under 20% in Dekalb.
Really interesting numbers among many interesting numbers in Georgia election tonight.
