To clarify for folks asking questions. There are:
1. 1,463 accepted ballots left to count and
2. 1,540 signature challenges to resolve.
#2 will almost certainly increase Wilson's lead. Harrell would have to get close to 100% of #1, plus a bare majority of trickle-in mail.
The race is over.

Absolutely amazing: they've got so much solar in Australia that they need more people to use more of it, so the gov't has instructed energy retailers to offer *at least three hours of free power* during the middle of the day.

Trump could feed hungry families if he wanted to. He is CHOOSING not to and instead using them as a bargaining chip.
Come Saturday, when families find out their food stamps have been taken away, they’ll know who to blame.

We've learned from Chicago folks:
If you see ICE lurking: Blow your whistle intermittently
If ICE is kidnapping someone: Blow your whistle continuously
If you hear a whistle: Get to safety if you need to OR Follow the whistle to form a crowd
Stay nonviolent, don’t stay silent!
