Wednesday Open Thread | Democrats in New York flipped a New York Assembly seat

Posted on April 25, 2018 by SouthernGirl2

Democrats in New York flipped a New York Assembly seat on Tuesday, winning a seat that has been in GOP hands for nearly four decades.

Democrat Steve Stern, a former Suffolk County legislator, beat out Janet Smitelli (R) for AD-10, a Long Island seat, with 59 percent of the vote, according to Daily Kos.

The district has been represented by a Republican since 1978.

Former presidents Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama both won the district in the last two presidential elections, but the 18-point margin in Tuesday’s election is indicative of a growing blue wave in the area.
New York Democrats were optimistic about Stern’s ability to flip the seat due to the high energy of Democratic voters, and the fact that there are about 6,000 more registered Democrats than Republicans in the district, according to the Times-Union.

Stern was backed by two major labor organizations, which his campaign also saw as a key to encouraging higher turnout during a special election.

Democrats in the state also saw a small victory in the Senate, winning two open seats to gain the majority of the Senate, but not control due to a Democratic state senator who caucuses with the GOP.

Every time Chance or Kanye tweet about supporting the racist bigot in the White House they put People Of Color in mortal danger

This isn't about album sales or free thinking

This is about a racist white supremacist who is empowering racist ideology & using black folks to do it

No one is upset Kanye's not a Democrat. They're upset that he's enabling and fanboying over a racist wannabe authoritarian who has made it his mission to separate families, discriminate against POC and LGBT people, and remove himself from criminal accountability.

— Pete Forester (@pete_forester) April 25, 2018

Kanye’s ignorance can’t be ignored because he has too large and influential a platform. He’s just launched countless extra alt-right (far-right) podcasts, videos and thinkpieces. And Chance the Rapper knows that too.

You can tell a society's priorities by who gets second chances and who gets discarded at the first opportunity. Black people are typically the first to get ostracized regardless of class, status, etc. White racists get all the second chances in the world though.

  Even as folks are all busy playing save the ‘damsel’ for the complicit mistress turned 3rd wife of the adulterous buffoon …casting her as ‘sympathetic’ ‘poor victim’, and offering up every ridiculous defense and excuse – ‘perhaps she’s scared, and being abused’ , oh, her ‘poor, poor son’…to gin up sympathy and to absolve her – and to conveniently distance her now, from a notorious conman she eyes wide open hooked up with while he was still married to his 2nd wife.. And has had no qualms for years – and even up till this minute, enjoying the ill-gotten spoils of his various dubious dealings.. including stiffing working folk and stealing from widows..

This is a great article on African American women’s contributions to the civil rights movement:

“The Selfless Servant Leadership of the African-American Women of the Civil-Rights Movement
These women didn’t stand on ceremony; they accepted the risks of activism and fought for worlds where others might have freedoms that they themselves would never enjoy. ”

  I think Reid is wrong about impeachment. Richard Nixon resigned because of the threat of impeachment, conviction, and removal from office. His resignation was best for the country.

So the country should accept what Trump is doing? Can you believe this ISH? They’re not going to feel the wrath of Trump’s hate. His hate is no risk to their life, healthcare or separation from their families. Harry Reid can go straight to hell.

    Good morning, everyone. Son in law is doing well. He’s moving a bit slow and taking medication for the pain. His grandmother is with him helping out. He enjoyed the soup. Hope it makes him feel better.

    So good to hear that your son-in-law is recovering well and that his pain is being controlled with medication.
