  • Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez People Power Meme Co-Op 9/17/18, 719 AM
    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez People Power Meme Co-Op 9/17/18, 719 AM The names of all 626 Berniecrats who have won primaries so far in 2018! WARREN LYNCH · WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 2018 For all ye doubters (especially those working at NPR) who keep saying that the Berniecrats and progressives are “losing” the 2018 primaries! There are 626 names here, and 82 of them in FEDERAL races! The number of seated progressives is about to at least TRIPLE this November, so don’t believe the hype! (updated 9/16/18) The list is now annotated! People have been asking me for ages: “WHY do these people count as Berniecrats?” So now there’s a key, from most left-leaning to most moderate: (DSA) - endorsed by Democratic Socialists of America, the leftist group that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a member of. (even to the left of Bernie!) (Bernie) - endorsed by Bernie personally (LB) - endorsed by Local Berniecrats, a grassroots group with no money that started on the Internet with the goal of making Bernie’s down-ballot dream come true (OR) - endorsed by Our Revolution, either national or a local branch. The organization started by Bernie Sanders. (W) - personally endorsed by me, Warren Lynch. This candidate is a person I know personally, and I vouch for them that they are a progressive. (JD) - endorsed by Justice Democrats, the group run by The Young Turks (PCCC) - endorsed by, or my friend from, Progressive Change Campaign Committee, the progressive group which sent me to DC to learn stuff. Some of their candidates are a bit moderate or not Berniecrats per se, but all are strong bold progressives.

  • Journal of the House 01/09/2019
    JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE Wednesday, January 9, 2019 On Wednesday after the first Monday of January, A.D., 2019, the date prescribed by the Constitution of the State of Connecticut for the meeting of the General Assembly, the House of Representatives convened in the Representatives' Hall in the Capitol at Hartford, Connecticut, at the hour 10:01 o'clock, in the forenoon. Representative Robert D. Godfrey of the 110th District, Deputy Speaker Pro Tempore of the preceding House, called the House of Representatives to order. Prayer was offered by Rabbi Alan Lefkowitz of Windsor, Connecticut. The following is the prayer: Let us pray. As we open our new session, with new leadership and new divinely inspired people, we, as God did, are beginning to create newly. As we do, let us remember to keep 'spirituality' as our partner. Remembering that, unlike as we think, 'spirituality' is a verb to remind us that the truest fact of our very existence is that each of us is a "happening of God!" The Happening happening as all happening. Spirituality is progressive - a maturing rather than just a mature. Spirituality isn't fixed, it is fluid, not as a final "aha" but as a recurring "wow!" A maturing spirituality is active, not as selfish, but to be a blessing to all people on the earth. So, as we pray, may we begin to create to the One who created us all, our Highest Power, who desires for us to work for the highest good: Dear God, help us to be present and to see ourselves and others as waves of the infinite divine ocean, to be free by dropping those closed minded conditions of self-judgment that blinds ourselves to the judging others and to be compassionate by treating all beings with kindness and respect despite our differences.

  • Elections 2018 Update
    2018 CONNECTICUT ELECTION OVERVIEW November 7, 2018 Democrats in Connecticut rode a blue wave during Tuesday’s election – winning the biggest prize of the night – Ned Lamont as the next Governor of the state. In a sweep, the party also will continue to control all the state-wide elected offices – Secretary of the State, Comptroller, Treasurer and Attorney General. Democrats also won significant legislative majorities in the Connecticut Senate and House and again carried every US Congressional District and the US Senate seat. Democratic new-comer Jahana Hayes, a former National Teacher of the Year, won the open 5th Congressional District seat becoming the first Afro-American person to be sent to Congress from Connecticut. Bob Stefanowski, the Republican gubernatorial candidate, conceded early Wednesday morning after waiting for final results to trickle in from some cities and towns. Ned Lamont trailed Bob Stefanowski into the early morning when returns from the major Connecticut cities including Hartford and New Haven gave Lamont the race. With the lead expanding to over 10,000, it became unlikely that Stefanowski would be able to catch up. Lamont will squeak by after a record midterm turnout. Unsurprisingly, Senator Chris Murphy won a second term with a substantial margin over Republican Matt Corey. Democrats were largely fueled by female voters who supported Lamont but also provided new pickups for Democrats in the Connecticut Legislature especially in towns in Fairfield Country The biggest surprise of the night was Democratic legislative victories. In the State Senate Republicans had seen recent gains bring them to parity with Democrats at an 18-18 breakdown and the Lieutenant Governor breaking ties.
