Thinking abt the superb, brilliant Black candidates on the ballot in the South who lost to far less worthy opponents:
Beasley in NC, Booker in KY, Abrams in Ga, Demings in FL, Flowers in Ga. It’s a real loss for the immediate future of the South where new leadership is so needed.

South Dakota is now the latest state to expand Medicaid

When voters are asked whether to expand #Medicaid under the #ACA, the answer is often yes.

#KFF polling shows among those living in non-expansion states, two-thirds (65%) say they think their state should expand Medicaid to cover more people

I guess I’m going to #anthrocon then. I wanted to wait to see which way the #ElectionNight2022 went in that state. Guess I can safely say I’ll support the state and the event ;)

I am SO proud of Maryland’s new Gov-Elect @iamwesmoore. A superstar who is brilliant and dedicated. He is the first Black Governor in the history of the state and only the third Black Governor elected to office in the U.S. since Reconstruction. Wonderful! If you don’t know him learn about him!

Wes Moore projected to win Md. governor’s race in history-making run

Democrat Wes Moore is projected to defeat Dan Cox, becoming the first Black person elected governor of Md. and third Black person elected governor of any state.

It's out of my hands now, so rather than having to numb my nerves while refreshing the results page for the rest of the night, I'm going to switch off and read a book. #ElectionNight2022

Remember if you’re in line at the time that polls close in your state you must be permitted to vote. You can check your state’s poll closing time here: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/11/08/us/politics/poll-closing-times. Also absentee & military ballots will be counted in the coming says. Lastly we have 4 time zones in our country, Ignore pundits offering natl party “lessons” this early. What happens in the Mid West, West, and far West states matters too.
