Deja Foxx ran as a possible new Democratic phenom but when her primary challenge to the Grijalva legacy fell flat, so did she. The swagger disappeared. The pouting began.

    Uh, from the link?

    FTA:

    The results came in and you delivered two kinda-sorta concession speeches except for in neither did you concede the race and endorse the winner.

    Finally, this morning you endorsed. For someone who claims to know how fast information moves today on platforms around the world, it took a full 12 hours to actually do what you needed to do, which means you didn’t really do it.

    Also, when you did the third thing that needed to be done, you were in a coffeehouse just feet from where your supporters were gathered, and you Zoomed your initial remarks to your people. They had to watch you on a screen, while the audio was too messed up to understand what you were saying.

    So you’re saying she did concede, the article says it was a “kinda-sorta concession” followed 12 hours later by an actual concession. I don’t know either way, just thought it was an interesting story about a young politician.
