fantastic piece BUT I have to quibble... Cavan Sullivan is white presenting but is mixed race! His maternal grandmother is Bangladeshi! Anyway you should read it

Having looked at the full crosstabs, I'm updating my race prediction to Lean Raman. I was Lean Bass until the poll came out, then Toss-Up from the headline. Raman dominating Latinos under 50 is a massive swing and exactly what she needs to win

The mayoral race has all the headlines, but one of the starkest choices for Angelenos is further downballot: the race for city attorney. From enforcing tenants' rights to policing homelessness, this office matters matters on all sorts of things. Learn more in our new Bolts reporting!

I’ll say it straight up: Waibel’s one of the best GMs in the league and Sounders fans who want him out are spoiled dummies.

This is frying me

#SKCvPHI Kansas City were leading 3-0 in the 63', they are now losing 4-3 in 73'

Are we sure they got the right cause?

Cristian Roldan asked to start of his availability talking about former ECS president Tom Biro, who died recently. ‘First and foremost, rest in peace to Tom. It makes you realize that the sport and what we do on a daily basis is nothing when health is in jeopardy.’

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of former ECS co-president Tom Biro.

All this really calls into question the integrity of the FIFA Peace Prize

Last month, Ben and I published our projection of the LA mayoral race, analyzing LA as 11 political neighborhoods. Now, presenting: After the Count. What do the per-cluster results say about Los Angeles' voting coalitions? How well did our project do? What do Raman and Bass need to do by November?
