Today's the day.
If you're voting in Connecticut, Minnesota, or Wisconsin, support leaders who will fight for accountability and defend our democracy.
Change happens when voters have courage, too.

If you’re new to following me, you haven’t seen one of my election day threads. I’m an election officer in Fairfax County, Virginia, USA. Tomorrow is an #electionday in this county (and probably other Virginia counties), so I will do a live thread throughout the day. I’ll hashtag it #electionofficer so you can tune in or tune out as it suits you.
I try to talk about what’s happening, how we handle it, what the rules are, etc. Ordinarily, tomorrow would be a sleepy election. A single party primary. But there’s been talk of the US department of justice sending “observers” to polling places. It’s no big deal, but that would be a very non-sleepy thing to happen.
My job runs 5am to 9pm, so it’ll be a long thread over the course of the day. Now to try and get 5 hours of Zzzzzz

Who’s funding #BrentTaylor, #Republican candidate for #Tennessee district 9? Some of the worst big business interests.
#1 donor: #SpaceX / #xAI / #ElonMusk
#2 donor: CEO of #CoreCivic (#PrivatePrisons operator)
Who do you think Brent will represent if he’s elected? Not the regular citizens of #Memphis!
Vote for Justin J. Pearson! #EarlyVoting ends Saturday August 1st. #ElectionDay is Thursday August 6th (yes Thursday and not Tuesday!)

Opinion | Study confirms what many suspected: the 2024 election was rigged
Written by Thom Hartmann, July 10, 2026
"It sure looks like #TechBillionaires and foreign #dictatorships gave us Trump in 2024. This is as bad as the massive #RussianBot presence on #Facebook and #Twitter back in 2016, which Robert Mueller documented gave Trump the presidency that time.
"A peer-reviewed study released Thursday in Nature, the world’s most prestigious scientific journal, has finally put hard numbers to what a lot of us suspected the moment the 2024 election was called for Trump (and Republicans in Congress) by the big networks: the algorithms that control our largest #SocialMedia platforms intentionally and explicitly tilted the playing field, and they tilted it for Donald #Trump and the #GOP.
"Researchers at New York University Abu Dhabi created hundreds of 'sock puppet' #TikTok accounts in New York, Texas, and Georgia (via VPN), uploaded to them either pro-Democratic or pro-Republican videos to show their political leanings, and then watched what TikTok’s algorithm fed back to them every day over the 27 weeks leading up to #ElectionDay.
"Across more than 280,000 recommendations, Republican-seeded accounts received about 11.5 percent more 'party-aligned content' than their Democratic counterparts, while the pro-Democratic accounts were force-fed 7.5 percent more attacks from the other side. As Professor Talal Rahwan put it:
'The algorithm wasn’t just giving people what they want; it was giving one side more of what the other side says about them.'"The pro-#rightwing bias was even more dramatic when researchers looked at how the candidates’ own accounts did. Candidate Trump’s official TikTok videos were pushed to Democratic-leaning users 27 percent of the time, while #KamalaHarris’s videos only reached Republican-leaning users just 15.3 percent of the time.
"Translation: Leading up to the 2024 election, TikTok was working overtime to expose Democrats and lefties to MAGA’s most persuasive messaging, all while shielding rightwingers, independents, and Republican voters from Harris’s voice."

#Boulder Daily Camera, October 27, 1897: a list of political parties competing on the November ballot.
Note the iconography used for the political parties, and the number of different parties represented on the ballot: ten.
The Democratic party symbol is a strutting rooster (!) and the Republican symbol is an eagle clutching olive branches but standing on top of a shield laying on the ground. Truly bizarre.

"Republican voters have rallied behind candidates who closely align themselves with Trump and the MAGA brand":
https://www.politico.com/news/2026/06/28/gop-democrats-battlegrounds-trump-2028-00976940
On #ElectionDay, defeat MAGA extremists due to an unpopular, unnecessary war that Trump lost, new wars that Trump threatens (in Cuba and in Greenland), and high prices due to the war and tariffs.

Six endorsements for Maryland primary happening today! #elections #vote #dsa #democracy #socialism #electionday

RE: https://wikis.world/@legoktm/114741527688457140
One year ago today. Zohran's primary win was so dramatic and unexpected that he didn't even have a victory speech prepared. (And I suspect most people on Fedi didn't yet know who he was!)
Today the socialist & left bloc in NYC is challenging at least 5 U.S. House seats, 2 state senate seats, 9+ state assembly seats to prove this wasn't a one-time thing.
Voting is open until 9pm; resources and recommendations in 🧵 below.

We voted! If you can't tell through my wind-blown hair, @TheArtDontStop and I are sporting our SF "I Voted!" stickers.
Don't sit this election out. There are things on the ballot that matter nationally and locally. I recommend using @lwvsf's unbiased voter guide at https://lwvsf.org/vote #VoteWithTheLeague
Go vote! Get it done!

The funniest thing I experienced working the polls today (aside from all the “Independents” seething that the Republican primary is now closed) was this exchange, in the context of the two “I Voted” stickers available:
old man: “So is the blue sticker for the retarded men?”
me: chuckles, falling to hide my amusement
old man: “Oh, you’re the Republican commissioner!”
me: “Democrat, but I can take a joke.”Same old guy then proceeded to talk about how he’d like to shoot Zohran Mamdani dead as the clerks politely gestured towards the door.
