Zohran winning outright in a major election gives me hope that maybe our current election system isn’t entirely screwed and that maybe positive change in this nation can occur without necessitating a complete overhaul of our electoral process.
Even with the entire deck stacked against him, with billionaires spending millions on his opponent, with every major news outlet fear mongering about his religion or background or socialist beliefs, he managed to win, because he proved his worth by meeting New Yorkers on the streets, in their homes, at their churches and mosques, at sports games, and at social gatherings. Everywhere he went he asked everyday people “What are the struggles you face as a New Yorker, and how can the government help resolve or ease those burdens?” Then he laid out a clear, concise plan to fund practical solutions. His policies can and will make life objectively, measurably easier for New Yorkers.
Every politician should learn from his example. He ran a flawless campaign. Thanks to him I’m optimistic about the direction of American politics and the electability of progressive policies again.
on top of it all, he’s also hot as hell
every time i hear zohran’s name i think about that time fox news accidentally created a ton of support for him when they attempted to fearmonger his policies but when they actually listed his planned changes they were all good things like “reduced housing cost” and “lgbtq hate speech protection”
also yes he is very attractive
