In my attempt to implore that "local elections matter," going into what'll be a low-turnout Tuesday, I can't stress enough the importance of weighing in on local school board races (ask a Cobb County voter how important that is).

I also hear the dogwhistles, as being blown into by the likes of one GOP backer in Johns Creek who's concerned about "riffraff" coming to her community if "Democrats" come there or are in power there.

Okay, fine; I reached out to the candidate her comments not-so-subtly allude to: Devon Dabney, city council post 2 candidate. She and I bemoan dogwhistle politicking and concerns about housing affordability and the opioid epidemic, there, too.

But wait, there's more! A GOP-led effort to carve out a new Gwinnett County city is all about fending off mixed use (read: apartment) housing. I mean, where exactly are the retail minions going to live?

Oh, I also went "meme-busting," this time busting a meme targeting anyone who dares show empathy to Gaza citizens and/or Palestinians in general.
