NEW: An exclusive City Cast poll shows @Janeese4DC holding a slim lead over @kenyanmcduffie. But one in four voters is still undecided, and Lewis George’s 39-to-35 lead may not hold up once second choice votes are factored in under D.C.’s new ranked-choice voting system.

It's a devastating day for DC because of these @washingtonpost cuts. Nothing replaces the Bezos-shaped hole at WaPo, but I'm proud to be at a place looking to expand our coverage. City Cast is hiring new reporters — please get in touch! annie dot rees [at] citycast dot fm
DC needs and DESERVES strong local media. If you're one of the local reporters laid off by @washingtonpost and @JeffBezos, then please get in touch! Our DMs are open or you can reach out at dc [at] citycast dot fm. City Cast DC is expanding and looking to hire editorial staff.

Please take the time to read the report above and I highly recommend 15 minutes on @StevenOverly @politico podcast this morning. Super informative legal analysis on Musk’s work to influence the outcome likely breaking laws with the safety net of a pardon. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

VP Kamala Harris loved Tim Walz’s governing record in MN. His bio & record of winning tough races resonated with her. Most of all, she just really liked him. The first brush at timeline this weekend. w/ @ec_schneider, @hollyotterbein & @ccadelago bit.ly/4ddzjkN

It is harder now to follow the news from credible sources on X. It also never should have been your only source of news in the first place. Go to a news site. Stream a news show. Subscribe to a podcast. Just go right to the source; it helps support good journalism.

Hamas used social media to amplify its attack on Israel. @GrahamBrookie at @DFRLab & @AtlanticCouncil tells me how Hamas leaned on platforms with loose rules against terrorism propaganda and misinformation to sow fear. Listen to today's @POLITICO Tech: politico-tech.simplecast.com…

NEW: As 2024 heats up, VP Kamala Harris is at the center of the reelection as allies say she has hit her stride. To me, she addresses 2024 and her critics: "I'm not going to be distracted. Otherwise, that stuff will get in your head and debilitate you.” politi.co/3KKcfxJ
