Last night was a very good night to be among fellow Democrats from across the county. Here is what we did:
Eileen Higgins blew out the Miami Mayor’s race, winning by 19 points, 59.5%-40.5%.
In the last two years we’ve flipped Florida’s two largest cities, Jacksonville and Miami, and Mayor-Elect Higgins will be the first Dem in this office in almost 30 years

And lastly the mess at the end. Anthony Taylor really flubbed it. Konate ends up with the same disciplinary result as Martinelli?!? Jesus comes and retaliates on Konate, knocking Taylor's yellow card out of his hands and he gets... nothing?
Martinelli, the man who played dead within two minutes of coming on, is upset about a player on the ground? "The lad doth protest too much, methinks."
Throws the ball on a downed player, puts a knee into him, and then pushes him?…

Tata Power just flipped the switch on their biggest solar project ever—a massive 1.4 GW solar farm in Rajasthan that'll generate enough clean electricity annually to power millions of homes.
The power heads to three Indian states, using cutting-edge bifacial panels for maximum efficiency. A huge win for India's renewable energy push.
