Svante Myrick: We can get you a home mortgage in 20 min. We can sign you up for the Marines in 10 min. It takes us hours to vote. Why? It's by design by the people who want to silent our vote.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: There are two groups in our country: Organized people, and organized money. The organized people want every vote to count.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: What the Repub party is intent on doing is proving the federal gov't doesn't work. The first order of business for Biden is working on infrastructure.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: If you go to the homeless shelter in Ithaca, NY, you'd be surprised by how many stories start with hitting a pothole. Their car frame broke or other damage was incurred, which prevented them from getting to work; + expensive repairs.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor
Svante Myrick: If the Republicans control the Senate, I don't know how many bills will even have a chance to be passed. If we can get an infrastructure bill passed, that will help unions grow as well. #1u
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: I spent a lot of time in Harrisburg 4 yrs ago with the Clinton campaign. I talked to a lot of people who told me neither Hillary's nor Trump's plan would make their lives better but at least Trump cared enough to lie to them
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: At 33 yrs old, I've served in city gov't under three different Presidents. If you'd told me the George W. Bush presidency would be the second best of the three, I'd never have believed you.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: Trump only cares about himself. Ask a Republican mayor if their job is easier or harder under Trump's admin.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: When something bad happens in the city, there's a time when I think I'll be blamed for it, even if it's an act of nature like a flood. The real test of leadership is saying I didn't get into this to be popular, this is my chance to help. @SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor
Svante Myrick: I don't think Trump ever got passed that 8-yr old mentality w/ COVID--he was worried he would be blamed for it so he pretended it didn't happen. We've suffered for 8 months now while he did nothing.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: You can either save your face or save your a$$ but you can't do both at the same time. Trump chose to save his face and it cost us our a$$es.
@SvanteMyrick @PeopleFor @RightWingWatch
Svante Myrick: Biden will take over; I know he'll listen to the experts like Dr. Fauci. We'll have a vaccine & it will be administered safely. We won't brag about it & in 8 years we'll be accused of being too boring & Dems will be voted out.

Dr. Kelly Sennholz: We've had 111,000 new COVID cases today, and it's going to keep going up. Remember in Feb. I said every hour we didn't act would cost thousands of lives? We could have prepared for this fall but we didn't.
@MtnMD #CoronavirusPandemic #CoronaVirusUpdate
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: I go back to the lily pond story where 1, 2 cases a day doesn't seem too bad, & then it suddenly blows up with the number of cases. It all comes down to math. The people who understand it are held captive. We just have to stay away from them.
@MtnMD
Dr. Kelly Sennholz: I've been talking to physicians who told me they have patients who KNOW they have COVID but are walking around in public without masks b/c they think COVID isn't going to be that bad.

Sarah Burris: I think every time Don. Jr. tweets, the IQ of Twitter goes down. The words are coming out but surely I missed something--that can't be correct.
@SarahBurris @RawStory
Rick: All I want for Christmas is for @Jack to throw the Trumps off Twitter so we never have to hear from them again. #RickShow
Rick:I can't wait till Trump goes back to FL & NY awards him some shiny new bracelets & a 6x8 cell
Sarah:Trump accused E. Jean Carroll of lying & she filed suit against him--she wants his DNA sample b/c she has something to compare it to.That's one hell of a souvenir

Jessica Goodheart: This is the pandemic election. The pandemic itself really laid bare the extent of economic inequality in our country. Some people are doing okay while others, incl on front line, have lost their jobs.
@JGOODHEART1 @capitalandmain
Jessica Goodheart: The circumstances shifted Biden's platform. He became more of a candidate who was about change. People have expressed disappointment that the blue tsunami doesn't seem to have happened.
@JGOODHEART1 @capitalandmain
Jessica Goodheart: I wonder if not being able to do the normal election door-to-door part affected this election, but we still had a record turnout even without that part of the process.

Bob Ney: They need to fire a few people in the national news & hire me instead.
Rick: You were spot-on about the presidential race. You had your thumb on it the whole time.
Bob: In my map, PA goes to Trump, AZ to Biden. That puts Biden right at 270.
@bobney
Bob Ney: I predicted the Dems would pick up 5 seats in the House but we lost some. I had the Senate at 50/50.
@bobney
Bob Ney: I've been talking with former colleagues & staff members today. I'm watching some people say "The people have spoken." Yes, but the people spoke closely. If I were a Biden advisor, I'd be talking to him about what to do right off the bat.

Aixa Rodriguez: NY is now dealing with a hybrid plan. Teachers are trying to teach w/ windows open b/c we were told that's all the ventilation we needed. It's 41* in classrooms. It's either a COVID trap or hypothermia mill.
@bxeu4j @BadassTeachersA
Aixa Rodriguez: We don't know what the plans are for the winter [ventilation in classrooms]. We still don't have enough electronic devices for each child.
@bxeu4j @BadassTeachersA
Aixa Rodriguez: Some schools have put together boxes of food for students since some suffer from food insecurity. Someone did a fundraiser, raised $15,000, & bought laptops to donate to the school.

Robert S. Weiner: The GOP is throwing spaghetti against the wall & it's not going to work. The only changes made were for COVID accommodations. Otherwise, state laws haven't been changed regarding counting ballots. Trump's got nothing but creating a feeling of chaos.
Robert S. Weiner: Biden should be at 270 very quickly. I'm a little concerned about AZ but he's got NV, & if GA & PA come in for Biden...
Robert S. Weiner: Negative politics works, unfortunately.
