Several top state and federal offices are up for grabs amid a period of crisis with few if any precedents in the state’s history.

Insane that ICE decided to lead a congressional candidate with a NYT photographer in his car to the candidate's home.

Some Democrats privately worry about an alternative scenario, in which prolonged anger over the surge pushes Democratic primary contests toward an embrace of policies, or candidates, to the left of the independent voters who may decide some of the state’s closer races.

Fucking New York Times. Always propagandizing for the system. If some idiot is not going to vote for someone because they are "too far left" after seeing what these right wing fascists endorse, they weren't going to vote for whatever the fuck the NYT thinks a "centrist" is anyway. This is such a tired take that has proven over and over to both not be true and to submarine Dems chances. God damn boot lickers.
