New York completely rejected left-NIMBYism today. we elected a socialist pro-housing mayor, and passed pro-housing ballot measures with a diverse coalition that was strongest in the Bronx, winning every borough by double digits (except the MAGA NIMBYs Staten Island)

Just with early vote reporting, Charlotte's transportation sales tax referendum is currently up 55–45%. But I caution this is just the early vote!
