I was pleasantly surprised that Missouri voted to strike down the ban on abortion AND conversion therapy. I don’t want to chug hopium quite yet, but I do think this is somewhat different than the last “blue wave”. The question is if enough of them will be able to resist the corporate money.

They need progressive voters telling them that we expect results, we expect them to act like Mamdani. They need letters, protests, rallies, demonstrations. And we need mutual aid, we need to do things for ourselves.

The only reason they voted against harming trans people was because abortion was tied into the proposal.

The other 4 anti-trans ballot measures in Arizona, Colorado, and Washington all passed though :/. The Arizona one also includes a bathroom ban for all schools including colleges and private schools. As nice as the wave of progressives and pro-trans candidates winning is nice I feel like its soured by those measures and people like turek also winning his election.
