To the faux progressive man child who stormed out of a debate with me (around boycotting with your wallet rather than boycotting social media) because he can’t be challenged by a woman.

With just a few hours left to vote, I want to say thank you to everyone. I deeply appreciate all the amazing support & love that has surrounded this campaign. 🩵💙 Less than 20% of #Renton has voted & this election will come down to each voter. It’s the absolute least we can do. 🗳️ #RiveraforRenton

I learned yesterday that Muhammad Zahid has been detained by ICE. There are so many issues with our immigration process, and what Velvetta Voldemort’s administration is doing is absolutely unacceptable. #FreeZahid
