NEW: Dems easily flipped the sheriff's office in Pennsylvania's Bucks County, a big swing county in the Philly suburbs.
So? The incumbent GOP sheriff had contracted with ICE. His Dem challenger promised to end the contract.
Now he wants other swing-state Dems to look at his victory as a lesson:

Just now: The plaintiffs who were arguing that Utah GOP's congressional map is illegal won in court.
The judge orders one of the two maps submitted by the plaintiffs ('map 1') be used.
The ruling, if it stands, guarantees that Democrats will pick up a congressional seat in Utah next year.

Capital as capital simply pursues profit in the cycle of endless accumulation. But *capitalists* need to balance the pursuit of profit with preserving the stability of the social system within which capital exists, on the one hand, and their own privileged position within that system, on the other.

One small reason Jacob Frey’s victory margin fell in 2025 compared to 2021 is 2025 turnout fell a bit in his strong areas (SW ward 13, far south central ward 11, NW north side ward 4) and rose in weakee ones (U-area Ward 2, south central Ward 8, Fateh-liking Ward 6) datawrapper.dwcdn.net/lIHhL/1/
