Great to see @SolomonforJC pushing back on the kinds of well-intentioned but counterproductive regulations that make it harder to build affordable housing. Local electeds are much closer to these issues and know what works and what doesn’t

Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-N.J.) on Americans struggling with rising prices: "Maybe get yet another job"

Joe Hathaway last night talking about the Democrats coming over to endorse him gave strong Tobias Funke vibes

january 6 joe: the republican congress just passed a huge tax cut!!! @analiliafornj: tax cut for who???

@AmazingInsights @Route22Grifter @Analilia_Mejia Mikie Sherrill’s landslide win should be pretty clear evidence that most NJ voters prefer Democratic control of state government, don’t you think?

@philswib @Route22Grifter @Analilia_Mejia You do realize NJ Democrats control Nj and over the past 10 years have taxed and spent us to death

Really impressive from @Analilia_Mejia -- shows she can speak to Republicans and Independent voters about progressive policies/values in a way that emphasizes affordability and does not push them away. That's why the caricature the GOP is trying to turn her into isn't sticking.

@Route22Grifter @Analilia_Mejia Let’s check back on that when she wins 60-40 in the special

@philswib @Analilia_Mejia No voter in CD-11 with a rational non TDS bone in their body is voting for an antisemitic Far Left candidate who is anti police and wants to tax everyone out of NJ.

@MicahJRasmussen Seems like a massive undercount of Hudson given what we know about new development there, especially in JC

Early days with the usual two caveats: *If* census estimates are accurate (which they were not pre-2020) and *if* current trends continue for rest of decade: Ocean, Burlco, Essex and Union could be winners in 2031 maps, Atlantic, Cape, Cumberland and Passaic could lose ground.

I had a blast at @TheAAPC Pollies Awards Conference, and especially enjoyed the opportunity to participate in a panel discussion on how small firms can compete and gain staying power in the political space. Thanks for the invite!

Bill Raftery avoiding the fall off that comes for every aging broadcaster/color guy, at 82 (!!), while drinking like a fish, is one of the most incredible things I've ever witnessed in sports. A superhuman.

Brandon Johnson would never have become Mayor of Chicago without his mentor, Toni Preckwinkle. Toni plucked Johnson out of political obscurity to be a County Commissioner, supported his campaign for Mayor & has done nothing to stop his disastrous failures over the last 3 years. If you’ve had enough of Mayor Johnson’s failures, vote to retire his mentor & political boss Toni Preckwinkle on Tuesday, March 17th. It’s time for a change!

👀- Cook County Board Prez candidate Brendan Reilly calls out Preckwinkle for $5000 contribution her campaign received from GOP Guv Candidate Rick Heidner in 2023. Heidner is a self-proclaimed "Trump Republican" who also donated $25,000 to Mayor Brandon Johnson's campaign

@KevinRBing It’s very vague and unclear, but as someone whose office is in Secaucus but who is in and out of JC a lot I’m excited to potentially have less time fighting Tonnelle Ave and 139 lol

It's a bus isn't it.

I’m running for County Board President to make our communities safer, stronger and more affordable. That means attracting new investment; creating more affordable housing and jobs; and growing the tax base to help take pressure off of homeowners and renters. It’s time for a change. Please vote on March 17th to help get Cook County back on track!

Toni Preckwinkle’s incompetence has cost suburban school districts across Cook County over $122 million in interest costs that will likely get passed on to residents in the form of new property tax increases. Toni refuses to acknowledge the financial crisis she helped create, claiming she “can’t speak to that” when she is asked directly by media. I’ll work to fix it on Day One. Vote for CHANGE March 17.

The Fox 32 debate moderated by Paris Schutz devolved into testy exchanges and overlapping arguments as Brendan Reilly’s acerbic style pushed Toni Preckwinkle off her typically measured script. trib.al/2HdrvSk

.@AldReilly just showed why he’s the clear choice for Cook County Board President. While Toni Preckwinkle desperately tried to steer the conversation to anything other than her record of mismanaging county government, Alderman Reilly was laser focused on fixing the massive problems she has caused in order to make Cook County safer and more affordable.

This Committee reflects the board’s independent responsibility to respond legislatively to conditions impacting public safety and community trust. tapinto.net/towns/jersey-c…

Toni Preckwinkle’s failure in leadership & mismanagement of the county’s tax system has already cost local school districts over $120 million in unnecessary interest costs. Now we learn Public Libraries across Cook County are being forced to cut programs, stop buying books & considering layoffs to stay afloat. It’s a mess all around: some taxing bodies haven’t received the revenue they are owed by County, while others have been sent more tax dollars than they were supposed to receive. It’s a total disaster. Preckwinkle continues to deflect blame: with no answers & no plans to fix the problems she created. We need change in Cook County government and we need it now. chicagotribune.com/2026/02/09/lib…
