Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

MODERATORS
Isn't there overwhelming polling saying he is likely to win? Harris hitches herself to whoever is likely to win. That is her entire career.
Alternately, her endorsement is another way the Democratic establishment is trying to make him lose. 😉
How? The on the fence centrist democrats that Zorhan needs to win would be very liked to switch their support form Cumo of they knew some major establisment figures supported him.
The joke is that Harris is bad at winning elections, so anyone who associates with her also loses.
On a side note, strangely enough, with Trump this is a global effect; anyone who associates themselves with Trump too much will lose their election. It happened in Australia and Canada.
Except Trump himself, somehow, unfortunately, does not suffer from his own stench.
Cynical posturing, same as hochul, but hochul's endorsement actually meams something as governor.
We should not talk about kamala or biden or anyone that forced them or hillary on us unless is to demand their ousters.
i find hochul kinda of 2 faced, she was publically against him from the start, only changing once she realized she could be replaced in the next election.
Oh totally she is cynical and chosen by the establishment to oversee the plutocratic takeover, r or d means little, she opposes a new deal and frankly is the enemy All the D establishment is the enemy, there is no getting rid of r fascists with this controlled opposition.
Mamdami is a good start, we need different flavours if populists to challenge everywhere. Moderates are not the safe choice, reformers are.
