OK one more thing...

Further proof it is the racism here in Wisconsin.

Looks like Tammy Baldwin is going to retain her Senate seat by some 25,000 votes. Trump carried the state.

Which says to me that 25K people here in WI are perfectly fine voting for a white, openly bisexual woman, but not a Black woman. You cannot tell me there is any difference in competence or policy positions between Harris and Baldwin. It sure looks like racism to me.

This whole election looks to me like "Urban Renewal" in the 1960s.

After working in factories for 2 decades starting in WWII Black people starting buying houses. White people left in droves. After the while folks left, they made sure to "get rid of the eyesores" (Black people's neighborhoods) that remained in the cities. They would talk about "economic development" and "revitalization" but underneath it was just pure, ugly racism.

That's what drove this election. Not money, not campaign ad spending, not the economy. Just pure racism (by which I include all other "divisions," immigrants, Muslims, LGTBQ+, sexism, etc.)

@MylesRyden @uspolitics To those who insisted that's not who "we" are, I regret to repeat myself: That is, indeed, who "we" are.

Colorado voted Tuesday to preserve abortion access in the state constitution and lifted a 40-year-old ban on using government money to pay for abortions.

@TonyStark The only reason Ohio got to reject its similar amendment is because voters rejected a 60% threshold in a separate ballot measure first. So many hoops to make voters go through just to allow women rights to our own bodies.

This. This this this this. So much this. I'm tired of incompetent, stupid, criminal white people getting a pass.

@otownKim @Brynawel so 400,000 North Carolina ballots were delayed due to a computer glitch. They are only now loading those states. It is impossible to call NC with this big block of votes missing

This.

friends this is white supremacy fighting tooth and nail.

@GottaLaff This is disgusting.
Ohioans have been voting for fair redistricting for years, but gop has fought citizens at every step along the way. This issue would have created a fair redistricting commission. Gop killed it again to preserve gerrymandering.

More: New York voters passed an equal rights amendment that enshrines protections for abortion and LGBTQ rights in the State Constitution.
