I love Talarico and hope he wins. But he’s already raised $70M On the flipside, control of critical state legislatures will come down to seats where candidates raise 0.1% of that. I’ve researched the highest leverage swing district candidates you should donate to secure.actblue.com/donate/donat...

Our neighbors are being kidnapped from our streets. We have seen increased ICE activity across Seattle neighborhoods over this past week. ICE must be held accountable for their cruel and illegal actions. We know that fear and chaos is their goal. We counter that with knowledge and community.

Just like last year, it's important for King County voters to mail ballots in early. How early? Why not today? Due to mail processing delays by Trump's USPS, ballots mailed just before or on Election Day are at rick of not being counted. If you do wait until the last minute, just use a drop box!

“I do believe that people have a greater trust in government when they see people from their communities who are in public office. There’s a sense that their government reflects the people. And it really opens people’s eyes to ‘I could do this too.’” - as I am quoted in the article.

Taniel@taniel.bsky.social · 2w agoA flip last night in Arizona. Matt Orlando, who was endorsed by local Dems, seems to have won mayoral race in Chandler, Arizona's 4th largest city. Orlando beat GOP state Representative Jeff Weninger, and he will replace Mayor Kevin Hartke—who retired to run for the state House as a Republican.
