Cori Bush wins the primary, ousting the Democratic family that held the seat for 50 years in St. Louis. Bush will be the first Black woman to represent Missouri in Congress in the state's history and had significant backing from the Justice Democrats.

Political expert Mike Muse developed the Vote Quadrant to help voters think about critical local offices when they vote.

Bush will be the first Black woman to represent Missouri in Congress in the state's history and had significant backing from the Justice Democrats, a coalition working to elect progressives to Congress, as well as from Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. Bush spent her campaigns, both in 2018 and 2020, emphasizing the importance of fighting for people and pushing for radical change on issues like taxes, health care and policing.

Conservatives are warning America of what will happen when radical leftists have taken over a D party (which is going to own the US after this election). This warning is probably not having the desired effect bcoz the far right takeover of the R party hasn't pleased independents.

maybe the couple that the dems tried to charge for bullshit had some to do with not wanting left candidates.

Sad day today for grannys After team Joe mob attack in Portland.

TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE !!!

Nepotism breeds corruption. Those congressional seat do NOT belong to families.

This is only the start. Lets hope that America survives. Changes are coming and violence is helping it along the way. But at what cost? Guns are selling at record rates and people are getting tired of lawlessness. Violence is changing how people think about protecting themselves.

Sad, crime will skyrocket.
