Is there a stat for typical drop from midterm to special?

Would also rule out all of Florida south of Gainesville except Glades County.

And if a billionaire tries to develop the area to make it attractive to this crowd... boom, next Census it's ruled out again & they have to move on.

"entitled" is... quite the word choice when it's you claiming an additional right

And this isn't even someone looking for the stupidest thing in an episode to clip, it's their own clip, someone said "this will be a great way to promote us!"

Has there been any attempt to pioneer single stack in those rare jurisdictions?

I feel like it says something that when Blanc finally says the movie title, it's in a highly mixed metaphor wherein vultures somehow wield knives.

Not sure what though.

Of course belief in God or a universal spirit is not fully descriptive of all ways there are to be religious, but I think it's pretty relevant for most/all of both the Christians and the nones, who together are over 90%

Oh, I forgot about Lee actually. Anyway, I may be getting too spoilery for this reply thread

That said I suppose it could give the culture a kickstart in that direction, just by being a big change that gets in new blood

A larger House is good but I'm not sure it's necessary for leg. muscularity. The CA Lege has 120 members, is too small with members often having to leave one committee meeting halfway through to make half of another, & still churns out hundreds of meaningful bills a year, plus an actual budget
