I'm sorry, but the Democratic establishment doesn't get to say "these are low turnout primaries, they don't mean anything." Ritchie Torres, who unlike Espaillat and Goldman, *trounced* his primary challenger got a *total* of 24k votes. Chevalier got 33k Valdez got 38k Lander got 55k

Your occasional reminder that I hate this site and I rarely open it. I will go down with the ship at the other place, which is also awful but in a way that I prefer. (I prefer a filthy dive bar to an earnest, too well-lit nonprofit networking happy hour)

If you're a supposed "leader" in local party politics but you are publicly sitting out the Mayoral election bc it's contentious, you're not a leader, you're a coward. Also looking at Dem electeds who represent city residents and have been silent on the Mayor's race.

If you hold yourself out to be some kind of leader in the local Dem party-as a cmte person, donor, or advocate- and you live in the city and you have any kind of following and don't publicly endorse for mayor: you're not a leader, you're a coward.

It would be funny, if it weren't so predictable and gross. Right in line with our opponent's tactics from the very first push poll. Maybe if their candidate had more to show for a lifetime in local govt than two pieces of 10-year-old legislation, they could do better. But I doubt it.

When the former County Controller heard that former Gov Wolf was going to appoint Corey to the Controller's office she said that he was so out of his depth that he would need someone to hold his hand to even attempt to do the job. I don't think she expected to be quite this right.

🚨Friday reminder🚨 Corey O'Connor is working with the same Republican firm that ran Steve Zappala's Republican general election campaign.
OCBS NEWS
The poll appears to be part of an effort to encourage County Controller Corey O'Connor to take on Gainey in the Democratic primary.
One year before the 2025 spring primary, a coefficient poll taken for the Republican firm of Long Nyquist found that incumbent Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey is in a tie with County Controller and former City Councilman Corey O'Connor.10:28 C
•• 5G+
TRIBE
Wren, 38, of Greensburg, ran Zappala's campaign as an associate with the Republican political consultant firm Long Nyquist & Associates. Zappala said he never even met the firm's principal, Todd Nyquist, until four months ago after losing to Dugan in the primary.
Zappala had been unprepared, Wren and Corbett said. In most past elections, the district attorney had no opponent. In 2019, Zappala handily defeated his first challengers in decades without breaking much of a sweat.

🚨FUN FACT PITTSBURGH: Long Nyquist who jump started the O'Connor campaign in earnest by polling on his behalf last summer also managed Steve Zappala's Republican general election campaign.

I can let academic literature speak for itself b/c an alt-weekly isn't the place for that debate. A key strategy among YIMBYs nationwide is manipulating public discourse through social media. It's such a key element that academic theses have been written about it. www.proquest.com/docview/2712...

Of course, it's not just the 14WIDC whose endorsements have lost their lustre. ACDC and its unofficial satellite committees like Char Valley, ACBA, groups that require candidates to pay for consideration all used to mean much more than they do now. Which honestly is a shame.

No surprise Corey O'Connor is proud to be supported by the Pro-Housing Pittsburgh member who doxxed me. And he sees nothing wrong with that behavior as a consequence for engaging in direct democracy. (Not to mention his support from the Beacon Coalition which engages in the same)

Corey O'Connor pretending he's Mr. Fiscal Responsibility is hilarious to me bc he waltzed into the Controller's office on Day 1 as an appointee and added 200-300k in salaries to the budget OFF THE BAT and told existing staff to make it work. 🧵

Um. Because when you buy new shit you don't have to buy *new* new shit every year. If I buy 10 new vehicles this year, I do not have to buy 10 next year. The need diminishes over time before it increases again. Aren't you supposed to be the controller, dude?

“No” on the CR is not “no” on cloture, and anyone reporting on what a Senator’s voting intentions are needs to be clear on that distinction. “Yes” on cloture is defacto “yes” on the CR.
