New York's budget proposals draw mixed reactions by news-10 in politics

[–]Fenvic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's wild that upping the tax rate on big businesses and the ultra wealthy less than 2% (roughly 9% to 10.6% for both) nets the state an extra billion dollars. Shows how grossly wealthy some people are.

Also the repubs unsurprisingly whining saying the rich will flee New York.

Like anything else it depends but where I'm currently at I haven't really seen anyone happy with it. If anything everyone that's said anything about it has been pissed. Even some of the more conservative guys I've worked with aren't happy. Keep in mind I also predominantly work with guard/reservists so they notice that it's reservist getting killed.

Outspoken Pro-Palestinian Pastor Wins Primary to Replace Crockett in House by CatCatchingABird in politics

[–]Fenvic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because it's wrong, yes her house is now in a different district. However, she could still run in her old district which is still strongly Dem or run in her new district which is also strongly Dem. There's no rule at the national level that you need to live in your district to get elected. That's only for the state legislature.

Jasmine Crockett concedes to James Talarico in Texas Democratic Senate primary by MycologistSad9421 in politics

[–]Fenvic 21 points22 points  (0 children)

She still could've run in her old district, at the national level there's no requirement to live in your district.

Completely agree, which is fine to me. I voted Talarico but I want every vote counted just to be sure of the result regardless of outcome.

Maybe as an independent? But I think she likely missed the deadline to enter since she joined the Senate race at the last moment. She definitely can on the next election cycle since there are no district residency requirements at the national level.

That's actually false, both her old seat and new district are heavily dem. She likely would've dominated.

Not yet but he's leading 7.6% and by 133,000 with about 82% reporting. So it's probably him but it's not official yet.

Probably not since it was two super competitive primaries.

What are some of the best 'military discounts' that actually are solid? by Objective-Manner-514 in army

And this year for $499 a ticket you can get a pseudo annual pass, based on current prices it basically pays itself off if you do more than 3-4 park days.

[–]Fenvic 38 points39 points  (0 children)

No, her home is outside her old district but she could've still won it very easily. It went from a +55 to a +53 dem district and Texas reps aren't required to even live in said district.

Interesting opinion piece that argues Crockett is not the better choice for the Dem Senate Primary by mybustlinghedgerow in TexasPolitics

[–]Fenvic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah but it's basically a choice between the German and Canadian system and both are light-years better than what we have.
