Doug Burgum

In an odd coincidence, today was the first time a small amount of Americans even heard that he was running for office or knew who he is

i'm among those… had to google him. i was aware that the gov of ND was running but, knowing his campaign wasn't going anywhere, never bothered to learn/retain his name.

This past week was the first time I heard of Geordie or Jordy. I guess we can call it even.

So this one is different as his last day will be 12/31 and Newsom will call a special election to happen in January (From what I understand)

Someone help me with the math, but now in the house after Santos is out…the GOP lead is shrinking quite a bit
Do we think a dem can win in kevins district?
Edit: welp Trump won the district by a near 2-to-1 margin over President Biden in 2020….so my guess is some MAGA will take that seat

now now, i could start poking fun at Argentina if you like

also, without Long Island, you don't have  PE, De La Soul, Tribe, LL (and LP), Lou Reed(and Doug) Joan Jett, Stray Cats, Pat Benatar, BOC, Eddie Money, Twisted Sister, Simon and Garfunkel and of course Billy Joel
(sorry about John Tesh, Mariah Carey and Zebra)

but I was talking about Kevin, not santos …but I just found out santo's SE is on Feb 13

also I read that Democrats are expected to pick former Rep. Tom Suozzi, who held the seat before retiring to run for governor in 2022

so maybe we'll take that seat
the KM one, not so likely

more death and destruction for downtown DC… circling back to the 80's here.

However, didn't that place turn into a proudboyz spot?
