Chip City on 77th and Columbus on the UWS closed and there were NYPD officers there "collecting evidence." I think part of the shutdown of all of the locations.

Is the AAUP going to spend the additional money needed to help make sure El-Sayed wins the general election?
EPIC-MRA poll shows Stevens defeating Rogers by 2, but El-Sayed losing by 3.

Haley Stevens, while not great, is almost exactly in the center of the Democratic House caucus. Meanwhile, Angie Craig is in the right most quartile of the caucus and the AAUP has not endorsed progressive Peggy Flanagan in the MN-Senate primary vs Craig.

Actually, I find in Minority Party Misery (2021) that the probability of being in the House minority pretty (based on factors like presidential approval and the economy) strongly correlates with retirement rates.

Good piece overall, but I wish the author would have noted that Democrats have not had a trifecta in Ohio for a single day in the past 40 years, while Rs had one from 1995-2007 and again since 2011.
