#palmsprings council predictions (@christyholstege and @LisaMiddletonCA's seats open): - Big spending! @GraceGarnerCA's reelection set a precedent with the first single-candidate IE - Voters reject handpicked successors - Reparations drives protest votes (see Renee Brown in 22)
Last year the #palmsprings city council talked a big game about their fiduciary responsibilities to all stakeholders in the #section14 #reparations discussions. They owe taxpayers and survivors a better explanation of what changed and why desertsun.com/story/opinion/… via @MyDesert
Whatever your position on #reparations, this puzzling and contradictory interview by Mayor Jeffery Bernstein raises way more questions than it answers. #section14 #palmsprings #jeffreybernstein

With women's rights champion Greg Wallis taking the lead against @christyholstege in #AD47, the Coachella Valley finally has a leading candidate with an actual legislative record of protecting access to reproductive healthcare. Elsewhere it's bleak. @AsmWallis
Lots of bad takes on CV Dems "overperforming" fail to understand how votes are counted. Many races have 25k-50k votes left to be counted that skew R. The top vote-getters in CD41, AD36, AD47 and SD19 will possibly all be R. Not a complete disaster, but maybe stop celebrating?
Early election day statistics from the races we're following most closely. Turnout seems comparable with the 2022 primary. The final columns show 22 results for comparison. Note that the R vs D primary vote share is not very predictive of the final general election result.
Does @christyholstege stand for ANYTHING but her own ambition? Our schools need help. Acuna's a bad candidate but Christy doesn't care. What deals has she done? How many more bigots can she coddle? How many more voters can she offend and sell out? Her political career is over.
We love to see more women of color running in the valley! Anyse Smith has a highly compelling biography too. desertsun.com/story/news/loc…
Remember when the Trump campaign wasted money on ads in Washington DC just to boost the candidate’s fragile emotions and ego?! Well… @christyholstege's campaign is currently sending daily mailers for her non-competitive primary 🤔
Copy. Paste. Switch colors. $10k please 🤑. Overland Strategies are making bank from these, but do the candidates actually review them?! #joeyacuna @christyholstege
Big yawn. White man challenges popular Latina with no platform other than his personal grievances around how city hall works. desertsun.com/story/news/loc…
What is @christyholstege spending her donors' money on? Lavish salaries for her antisemitic friends, mostly... 👀 @AsmWallis @DTsikman @DuaneDichiara
Parsing through financial reports, the #AD47 fundraising dynamics stick out as interesting. @AsmWallis has mostly attracted new donors and even pulled some away from @christyholstege. AD47 is going to be very interesting. More to come...
Go @WillRollinsCA! You got this!!! desertsun.com/story/news/pol….
We don’t always agree with @GraceGarnerCA, but her strong conviction on issues even when she’s in the minority is commendable. She and ideological ally @christyholstege continue to inch towards an endorsement of @OscarForIndio over @RepRaulRuizMD, despite the political risks.

Brands die, even city brands. Just ask San Franciscans.
There is just a stripe of people on this hellsite who THINK that they have the moral high ground on Israel-Gaza, and they just don't. They conveniently ignore the deaths they want to ignore, and the Terrorist organization that's really fanning the flames here.
If I had a dollar for everytime I heard someone say, “I would have already returned my mail ballot, but I don’t know how to vote on the judges,” I would be a millionaire. One more reason I’m philosophically opposed to electing judges.
Look, if you Socialists want to burn down the country and end Democracy, you go ahead and help Trump win again...because that's what you're doing. We'll fight him, and if necessary, we'll fight you too.
@admiralmpj Warned with what? Biden is literally doing Trumps border policy from 4 years ago. The Democrats adopting far-right border policies just forced the GOP to distance themselves and go even further right.
@coachellapols @christyholstege If she’s got this kind of runaway spending on her non competitive campaign imagine what she would do with the California budget 😬

@coachellapols @SupVMPerez @DesertReview He didn’t resign and Eduardo didn’t get the nod. Seems like the editors were either relying on gossip…or reporting info leaked by ambitious politicians wanting to pressure the Supervisor, their old friend, to step down so they can advance their own careers.

@coachellapols @P2PDems @LisaMiddletonCA @christyholstege @LaurenMWolfer This is concerning. Has @christyholstege and her campaign clarified her position on Hamas ?
@coachellapols @LisaMiddletonCA @christyholstege @LaurenMWolfer Thank you the links. It is appreciated.
@coachellapols @RivCoRegistrar @JoySilver4CA We agree, too.
@coachellapols @GavinNewsom @AsmEGarcia @CoachellaMayor @JanHarnikforPD @LisaMiddletonCA Kim Miranda works for Eddie Garcia. Oscar isn’t even a Dem so he won’t get Blue $$$ or endorsements. He doesn’t stand a chance but that’s not the point. His minions are already trolling Ruiz to carry the Rat Pack’s water. This guy seems nice …and so articulate too
@coachellapols @GavinNewsom @AsmEGarcia @CoachellaMayor @JanHarnikforPD @LisaMiddletonCA Hernandez being ‘no stranger to corruption” is an understatement. Let’s hope the Governor passes over the Rat Pack guys..and all their baggage… and gives the nod to Quintanilla or Middleton.
In Sacramento, new affordable housing units cost twice as much to build as luxury units. I haven't seen any proposals to change this dynamic, which causes so much unnecessary suffering for poor people. finance.yahoo.com/news/sacrament…
