There’s a reason they chose that 60% figure in the amendment proposal: if you don’t really think about it, it seems reasonable (it’s not even 2/3rds!) But in reality, in the country’s currently fractured political climate, getting to 60% is near impossible. Hell, if a Presidential candidate carries a state with 55% it’s considered a crushing defeat, so 60 is a crazy high bar.
You have to remember that Trump easily won Ohio in 2020. This issue pulled in people from across party lines.
Iirc, in the last (illegal) redistricting, the Rs kinda gave Cincinnati our representative back, but created at least one other district that would go hard R.
It is really nice to have Landsman in there, though. He actually fights to get us funding for things, as opposed to Chabot’s preferred stance of steering funding literally anywhere else.
It also removed the signature curing period, meaning that there is no second chance to get more signatures or any of the originals get thrown out. For example, there is a recreational marijuana initiative that people are trying to get on the ballot in November. When they turned in signatures, it was found that they were, iirc, 639 signatures short. Under the current rules (which will remain) they had 10 days to come up with what they needed. Last I saw, they had gotten over 6,000, so that’s cool.
I’d guess they chose the area because of the relatively low population. They figure they can outnumber the locals like the libertarians have been trying to do in New Hampshire.
Blockchain never does anything better than any other database, in fact it does pretty much everything worse.
Dot.com bubble was web 1.0. Big centralized sites like Reddit are web 2.0.
That’s why they were trying to buy an island.
I was gonna say that the arm chair makes sense to go with the vanity area, but then I noticed that there is an ottoman type seat that nicely sides under the vanity counter.
I would rather have this than one of those tiny “apartment sized” refrigerators.
Trump is way ahead of any of the others among Republicans in polling.
I know what you mean, but I’d lay a dollar that these people aren’t from the city. More likely suburbs, exurbs, small town, etc.
People who live in cities tend to understand danger and avoid it. If somebody is like, “that street gets dangerous past X block, and you’re likely to get mugged or worse” you don’t go there. Same principle as a wild animal.
Especially given the fact that there seemed to be a group of men preventing people from escaping or eating.
Isn’t he a Blockchain/crypto grifter as well?
“I won’t change my mind, cause I don’t have to. Cause I’m an American. I won’t change my mind on anything, regardless of the facts that are set out before me. I’m dug in, and I’ll never change.”
Not least because paying younger people less means they can drive the pay for adults down.
Your first sentence is absolutely accurate, but I think this specific case is more about sticking it to the libs in the cities that passed these laws, with the side benefit that most of these workers are minorities that the state reps don’t like.
It’s like any kind of scammer, grifter, con artist, etc; at some point they’re doing more work than if they actually just did their jobs.
No, neurotypical people have to think about actions before we take them. We aren’t robots. I don’t automatically get up from the couch, make dinner, and then eat it without thinking about it.
We get distracted and forget things, too. I went to the coffee shop the other day and realized I left my wallet at home.
My brother has extreme ADHD, and it’s much harder for him to manage everyday things. He might hyper focus on something and forget to eat all day, etc, but we both have to consciously do tasks just the same.
No, desantis already tried the “Trump is too liberal” tactic and failed. Why? Because Trump is the strong daddy in Republicans eyes, and you can’t call the strong daddy weak.
Instead you say that strong daddy is being railroaded by the libtards and it’s totally unfair, but you should vote for me because he has to concentrate on his legal fights and I’m also a strong daddy.
