American Voters To MAGA - YOU'RE FIRED! - CleanTechnica
The article from CleanTechnica highlights a significant electoral rebuke of Republican candidates, particularly those aligned with the MAGA movement, in recent American elections. Voters decisively rejected many Republican contenders across various races, from high-profile gubernatorial contests to local positions like the Georgia Public Service Commission. Notable victories for Democrats included Mamdani’s win over Andrew Cuomo in New York City by 9 points, Mikie Sherrill’s 13% margin in New Jersey’s governor race, and Abigail Spanberger becoming Virginia’s first female governor with a 57-42% victory. These outcomes reflect widespread voter dissatisfaction with the policies and rhetoric associated with the MAGA faction. The article places special emphasis on the Georgia Public Service Commission elections, which, while typically low-profile, carry national significance due to their impact on utility regulation and energy policy. Democrats Peter Hubbard and Alicia Johnson won seats on the commission, marking a potential turning point in a body that had been Republican-controlled since 2007. This
