The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Yep. If the results end up tracking the projections, the most likely outcome (barring some very weird deal-making) is another election in a few months.

For the halibut, I applied the same sort of logic the analyst applied to the Arab parties, to USian Congresspeople.

There are 12 Dems in the Texas Congressional delegation.

8 Dems in the Florida delegation.

5 Dems in the Georgia and Ohio delegations.

1 Dem each in 9 other red state delegations.

Imagine if a narrative started in those red states that people refuse to vote for anyone who is a member of a party that would allow gay people in, or Muslims.

Self preservation shifts 40 seats away from the Dem party.
