DSA member Nate Adams is challenging District 2’s Charlene Wang in the November election. They're duking it out over who would best stand up for the working class.

The DOJ is intentionally drawing attention to this incident of mail dumping to sow distrust in mail-in voting, suppress votes, & motivate changes to the law to make it harder to vote.
