Markey’s win in MA tonight was important for a lot of reasons. One, because it showed the political will is there to create serious progressive change. And two, because it proves the importance of electoral politics in helping to make the change happen. Congrats to all involved.

Sadly, seeing Neal beat Morse shows the establishment playbook, including baseless smear tactics, still works

Chipping away at @SpeakerPelosi's power.

"The 74-year-old Markey received a call from Kennedy conceding the race around 10 p.m." ... I'm from Massachusetts ... I supported him, donated to his campaign ... and voted for him in person earlier today! ... I'm thrilled that he won!

He won because he was established in an ultra-liberal state. Kennedy's name was known for his work was not as well-known. His family will continue to serve and so will Ed Markey.

Kinda shows that @TheDemocrats should have gotten rid of @SpeakerPelosi years if not decades ago, certainly past her prime, best by date has come and gone

I think the most significant aspect of it is that the Dem establishment (the Kennedy dynasty, Pelosi etc) got rebuked by the progressive candidate
