It took me 12 hours to drive from Jersey City to Myrtle Beach, but I made it. Of course the only time I hit was traffic -- was in Myrtle Beach.

I know you don't live in my town, @jeffjarvis.bsky.social, but as a creature of Jersey and a political wonk, I'm wondering your thoughts on our Jersey City runoffs last night.

Congratulations to James Solomon, the next Mayor of Jersey City! People in NJ are tired of corruption, tired of greed, and tired of politics as an exclusive club for the well-off & well-connected. This is the rise of a new era defined by public servants who work for the people.
