Things I saw yesterday when voting:
1. A young person came in who wasn't registered to vote
2. A young person came in who had moved and hadn't changed their address yet.
Just knowing they both showed up when they might be unsure if they could vote was great to see. Yay for the youth voters.
3. Both were able to vote ✊️

Chicago board of elections website is down and I'm trying to believe it's not anything sinister. #Chicago #ChicagoMayor
Edit: it's back up.
Paul Vallas supporters are why people say "both sides are the same." There's no fucking reason a conservative Dem to the right of Rahm Emanuel should be Mayor of one of the most diverse cities in the country. Brandon Johnson should be dominating these polls but since he had the nerve to say police should be accountable for their actions and not betray the community's trust, he's being treated like some kind of radical. It's stupid. #BrandonJohnson #ChicagoMayor
Paul Vallas darkened Brandon Johnson's face for a campaign ad. Straight up racist.

#PaulVallas was once IN CHARGE of the Chicago Public Schools, and these are the best answers he can give? What an embarrassment. #Chicago needs to give that guy a good clobbering in April. #BrandonJohnson for #ChicagoMayor! https://blockclubchicago.org/2023/03/03/chicago-mayoral-election-2023-how-johnson-vallas-answered-10-important-education-questions/?utm_source=Pico&utm_campaign=c502cabf74-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_3_3_morninglist1&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_b6b84a5cee-c502cabf74-127229445&mc_cid=c502cabf74&mc_eid=38a3e973e9

Republicans and just generally racist conservatives are celebrating Lori Lightfoot not making the #ChicagoMayor runoff not realizing the guy who will likely replace her is much more progressive. #BrandonJohnson #Chicago

Whether you're working directly in or adjacent to them or just concerned about the future of your city/state/etc, elections are stressful, exhausting, maddening, and a lot more. This was a really good and fun read during one of the more contentious and exhausting local elections in recent memory. #Chicago #ChicagoElection #ChicagoMayor
