22. Wait... I know about the "defund the police", and the "abolish prisons" tweets. But....

I am a NYC'r, and in that district.

There was also the "abolish borders".
But something along the lines of
"interracial dating is oppression"?
Well, I didn't see that one!

And l actually didn't get to vote!
I went on the early vote day, and I was listed as Inactive! WTH?!
I was so upset I didn't even think about a ? provisional ballot.But I reregistered right then, and there. Just got my reinstatement notice this week!
My last vote was '24 (messed up my voting location in '25) since when does missing one year inactive you?!
I have to re-call an organization to report what happened. I called but no one was around, and I didn't want a call back that afternoon.

I was going to vote for the incumbent.
I guess we'll see how this one does once they get in after a few months.
