Hello from Philly, Berkeley, and Missoula!

In this #2020 special, we share our jaundiced views of the U! S! A! and the election as of Wednesday night, 24 hours after polls closed. 

Discussed:

* Tuesday night’s emotional roller-coaster

* Post-vote explanations based on racial and ethnic checkboxes

* “Jay Kang, (G.O.P.) political consultant

* Propositions 22 and 16 in California

* Tammy’s feel-good corner a.k.a local measures to give us hope going forward

Links to stuff we mention:

* Exit polls (with the usual caveats) showing Trump’s gains with POC voters

* Jennifer Medina, of The New York Times, on the macho appeal of Donald Trump

* Aída Chávez, of The Intercept, with a pre-election look at Latino/a progressive organizing in Arizona, as well as her write-up on election night, with Ryan Grim

* Congratulations to TTSG friend Nikil Saval! He’s a progressive Democrat success story, the first Asian American member of the Pennsylvania State Senate, and we couldn’t be more proud! (ICYMI: our interview with Nikil)
