Some context around this, from a markets person. Historically in LatAm, leftist victories have led to sharp losses over the ~3 months after an election where the left wins. Stocks also typically underperformed into those victories. But 3y post-election, returns for leftists have been *higher*.

It's very, very telling, I think, that the markets are so concerned about the pro-democracy incumbent winning

This is just the maddest argument. These people would trap us in poverty to keep a decade old commitment, which no one ever actually made, to an electorate which no longer exists.

“The perception that promises can subsequently be revisited by a political establishment removed from the realities of working communities has left lasting scars”, writes Labour MP @melanieonnmp.bsky.social 🗣️ EU free movement debate risks undermining voter trust www.politics.co.uk/2026/10/mela...

Brazilija in Srbija sta super rezultata, za Izrael pa razen če jih meteorit zadane ne bo dosti boljše po volitvah ne glede na to kdo zmaga

Srbija, Brazilija... Še Izrael jutri, pa bo za začetek tedna dovolj.

The Serbian people have made a major decision. The entire region would benefit from a democratic, moderate Serbia. This may - or not - be its genesis. Let us at least give the citizens of Serbia a chance to finish what they have started tonight.

Brazil going the way of South Korea. Basically around the world women are desperately trying to keep power out of the hands of incredibly stupid fascistic grifters while men keep trying to hand it over. Men are an embarrassing cringe gender.

Incredible gender difference in voting intention in Brazil.

between serbia, brazil, and hopefully november 3, a good reminder: voting works it’s not the end, there’s always work to be done after the vote, but if you want to beat the motherfuckers and keep them out of power: vote your asses off

“i pay tax before, but still pay tax now?” We spoke with dozens of half-literate morons about the machinations of local governance. Here’s what they’re saying.

Politico@politico.com

“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

Trying to imagine being admitted to the hospital on the brink of death and then finding myself shunted aside for nearly two weeks because there's a law saying people like me must be segregated away before we can receive treatment.

She was murdered by transphobia 😥😥😥

Let's go, Sam Forstag! That's how you stand up for trans people on the national stage. If congressional candidates in western Montana—one of the most competitive House races in the entire country—can stand up for trans folks in every aspect of our lives, democrats everywhere should take note.

the Allied post war "denazification" was a massive failure. nuremberg was a massive failure. the Nazis who survived were, in large, not held to account. suggesting otherwise is fantasy.

First massive defection in rumors that still needs confirmation - Colonel Major Kimba Tahirou, head of the national gendarmerie is supposed to have defected to the rebel side. Tahirou was appointed chief of Gendarmerie nationale last year and holds diploma of Paris War College.

Paweł Wójcik 🦋🇵🇱🇪🇺@saladinaldronni.bsky.social

Rumors are quite something though as usual better to see more details - rebels are said to have been able to seize parts of Niamey beyond the airport, which if true will probably shut down TV again. This is a wide scale revolt at this point and if not finished today - civil war.

It is simply not realistic to insist that your political opponents in a fight over a seventy-year old apartheid/occupation also constantly validate the innocence of your own position, and the "Liberal Zionist" insistence on this is just pathetic. At some point you have to accept your own beliefs.

Michael Hobbes@michaelhobbes.bsky.social

It is not a "grim choice" to support either a psychotic Republican or a mainstream center-left politician.

Kocka je padla. Kandidiral bom za župana Nove Gorice ob podpori Levice in gibanja Goriška.si. Da postane občina v kateri si bomo vsi želeli živeti. In to dobro!

Manjši spoiler alert; to je zdaj že druga zaporedna knjiga od LUD, ki sm jo prebral (poleg kresničevja) in si na konc mislim wow kako lahko 80% napišeš tok dobro knjigo in potem ti finiš razpade. Obe sta dobri in priporočam (sploh tole) ampak ne morem se znebit občutka, da bi lahko bli dost boljši.

Realno Aluminij ni mel šans, Bravo je vsaj eno tekmo zmagal ampak včeraj zelo slaba predstava, Koper pa preprosto ni zmožen prit naprej v Evropi, ne vem zakaj ampak to potrjujejo cisto vsakic. Vsaj Celje imamo ampak tudi oni letos dosti slabše. Se bojim, da je bil evropski uspeh odvisen od 2 Špancev
