A strong contender for my favorite - if most befuddling - energy podcast of 2024: the great transformer shortage. Would be interested in a 2025 status check @shaylekann.bsky.social! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

The mission of the Board of Elections is clear — conduct fair & honest elections, register all eligible New Yorkers to vote, and help people vote. In his previous roles, Frank Seddio has been unfair, dishonest, and committed to disenfranchisement. He’s unfit to lead... #StopSeddio bit.ly/stop-seddio
