The daughter of Colombian and Dominican immigrants, Mejia ran on an adamantly anti–Donald Trump message and secured a whopping 70 percent of the vote as a result. The Associated Press called her victory shortly after the votes started rolling in.
70 percent… wow!
The progressive Democrat’s positions echo several of the policies that made Sanders a national phenomenon, including support for universal health care coverage, tuition-free college, student loan forgiveness programs, and strengthening unions and expanding labor protections in order to bolster America’s middle class.
She sounds like a Democrat who wants to win and is against genocide.
Mejia has also been vocal in her criticism of Israel, publicly denouncing the state’s war on Palestine as a genocide. That caught the attention of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which funneled money into the race to bolster her opponents. In the end, the pro-Israel lobby’s efforts may have been one of the reasons that voters in New Jersey sent Mejia to Congress.
Awesome!
Lol. You guys are hilarious. You won’t do something as simple as voting against the Nazi candidate, but you expect other people to fight a revolution for you.
In what world do you think that people who fight a revolution (that you seemingly won’t participate in) will give you a seat at the table to create the next government?
Id rather there not be a next government and im not sure how id feel about shaping one.
Go live in the sticks then and get off the internet. If all you’re doing is complaining, then you’re part of the problem and not part of the solution.
