Last night was a good night for democracy at the ballot box. Today we continue to fight for democracy in court.

Biggest losers in this election:

1. The Media and Pollsters
2. MAGAts.

Andy Beshear didn't just win in Kentucky.

He won in Kentucky without being a Manchin or Sinema centrist DINO.

He was unabashedly pro-choice - and he opposed an anti-trans bill.

He proves you can be a real Democrat and still win a "red" state.

#DailyBloggingChallenge (104/200)

Learnt today of the news that #Instagram and #Facebook will be giving their users a third choice of using their product in the #EEA (European Economic Area) by subscribing to their services for a monthly fee of €9.99 for web users, and €12.99 for #iOS and #Android users.

Currently inconclusive how I feel of this development. The only thing I can say is that before I start paying for a service that I use as a complete distraction, I would forfeit it and support open source alternatives that can create similar experiences.

The side effect of this is that there might be an upswing of #Pixelled and #Friendica users, similar to the #Twitter migration. Some have speculate that some will migrate to #TikTok instead.

Democrats hav retained power in the Virginia State Senate — and they've flipped the Virginia House of Delegates! Yippee Ki-Yay, Glenn Youngkin. Yippee Ki-Yay!

Rashida Talib censured.

Shameful, Democrats! She was clear that criticism of the Israeli government—which many Israelis have been criticizing—is not an antisemitic indictment of Israelis or Jews.

Via Meidas Touch:

BREAKING: Republicans LOSE CONTROL of the #Virginia House of Delegates. Democrats are now one victory away from taking the majority. This follows the Democrats retaining control of the Virginia State Senate earlier tonight.

@GottaLaff From this House it's almost a badge of honour.

Pansy had a vet visit today and they’ve given her a bandage covered with dinosaur heads 😂 She is very unsure about this. #CatsOfMastodon

Why would anyone ever vote for a Republican again? They offer nothing. To anyone.

GOP is STUNNED with DEFEAT in OHIO, BIG WIN for Women https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lpxt-k_9Ow8&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

MAGA Republicans tried every trick in the book to stop Issue 1 from passing, from tampering with ballot language to posting false information on government websites. What the GOP seems to consistently overlook is that when abortion is on the ballot, their extremism will lose

POLLS ARE BULLSHIT. Pollsters are bullshitters. Reporters who report polls report bullshit. The only polls that matter are the ones that come on election day. Anything else preempts democracy.
