"Vote No on Initiative 83" mailer from DC Democratic State Committee listing all ward Democratic groups as well as the names of members
Post from @Ward6Dems, 2 Oct 2024: We've received word that DC voters are getting a mailer implying that we've taken an official position against I83. This is not accurate. The Ward 6 Dems do not have an official position on I83. We feel Ward 6 voters should choose for themselves.
The DC Democratic State Committee has sent out a mailer opposing Initiative 83 and listing ward organizations that have taken no position as well as the names of individual committee who actually support the initiative. #DCElections #DCision24
Markus Batchelor decides against a write-in campaign for the Ward 8 seat on the DC Council.

Why not just expel #trayonwhite from the #DCCouncil altogether? Just the evidence on video makes him a disgrace to #ward8 which needs to move on from this ASAP

Campaign sign for Frazier O'Leary for DC State Board of Education Ward 4. The apostrophe is upside-down (looks like a 6 rather than a 9).
I'm used to people having upside-down apostrophes at the start of words (especially two-digit years) thanks to "smart quotes", but how did Frazier O''Leary manage to do it in the middle of his name? #DCElections #DCision24
While most of the religious leaders focused on White’s spiritual upliftment, some like the Rev. Kendrick Curry and Min. Muhammad took aim at the FBI. Both mentioned the Counterintelligence Program (COINTELPRO) that dismantled Black liberation movements of the 20th century, and Muhammad facetiously asked the FBI agents in the audience to stand.
“Y’all do all the prayers but prayers do nothing without action. Be down there at the court before any of them Europeans or devils can get them seats,” Farrakhan said.
Isn't redemption supposed to involve admitting wrong and atoning for it, rather than blaming enemies?

Sam P.K. Collins @SamPKCollins, 23 Aug 2024: THIS JUST IN: Mr. Pannell's no longer pursuing a write in campaign for the Ward 8 seat. He said he will instead support @MarkusforDC, who recently confirmed his intentions to run as a write-in candidate. @WashInformer story coming soon..
Latest on attempts to provide an alternative to Trayon White for Ward 8 voters (other than the MAGA candidate). Markus Batchelor is launching a write-in campaign, endorsed by Philip Pannell. #DCElection #DCision24
James Harnett filed a challenge against the DC nominating petitions for RFK Jr. The basis is the same as the successful challenge in New York: that he lists his state of residence on the petition as NY when he actually lives in CA.

Looks like we might not have the distraction of these ridiculous recall campaigns trying to unseat local progressives in DC much longer.
