18. They all pretty much ran on affordability issues

Tuesday

Seems like a unified message, regardless of region

Mamdani NY was all about housing, groceries, buses

Wilson in Seattle WA is about to be mayor - campaigned on housing, grocery prices, taxing the rich

Mikie Sherrill NJ: "I am fighting for you. I'm fighting to get your costs down. I'm not doing a 10 year study. I'm not writing a strongly worded letter. I'm declaring a state of emergency to drive your costs down. I'm increasing that first time home buyers program so you can get your foot in the door. I'm taking on those landlords who are colluding to drive up your rental prices. Will my opponent do that? No."

Spanberger VA: "We’re going produce more energy and we’re going to lower energy costs. We are going to produce more energy here in Virginia and make sure that data centers pay their fair share." She also campaigned on lowering the cost of homes, cracking down on pharmaceutical prices and making data centers pay their fair share.
