Noted: People-Power Can Work!

The closing quote in this article about our presumtive State Senator-elect Daniel Squadron (at least for part of North Brooklyn) makes us think that grassroots democracy sometimes might still have a chance:
Mr. Squadron added: “There is something important about the democratic process that happened here. It wasn’t about institutional support. It was about, at its basic level, me going out and talking to a lot of people and people being excited. And that is what can make someone a new state senator.”

Note: NAG is a non-partisan organization and does not endorse candidates.
