This is a massive win for democracy! Every single vote cast by a citizen should be counted, regardless of postal delays. Suppressing votes based on technicalities is undemocratic. Thank you to the Elias Law Group for fighting to ensure every voice is heard.

Rather than focus on ICE hiring practices (or lack thereof), the killer of Johan (Joan) Sebastián Durán Guerrero should be put properly in the context of the nexus of violence work, extreme right-wing beliefs related to race, and misogyny.

Here's something I post from time to time. My answer to a reader who asked me: what could journalists do NOW to break with some of their more corrosive habits.
Watching ICE agents literally run away from a Mount Laurel Starbucks without their coffee because the neighborhood completely rejected them is pure gold. South Jersey will make you unwelcome every single time you show your faces.
