Yes. From 1992-2024 a Democratic candidate has won Massachusetts every time with 60% - 66% of the vote. The last time a Republican won the presidential vote in Massachusetts was 1984 (Reagan vs Mondale). That is 10 straight elections where they voted for a Democratic candidate for president, yet in the same time they have had 5 Republican and 2 Democratic governors. The reality of Massachusetts is that 64% of voters are neither enrolled as Democrat or Republican. Meanwhile only 26% are registered as Democrat and only 8% are registered as Republican. So unlike the sheep @Offthemat and @El Luchador, sometimes they vote one way, sometimes they vote the other way. They clearly view state politics differently than national politics.

I've spent time in most every state. There are so many wonderful areas in this country that politicians have made a living hell. Chicago has a wonderful vibe and so much to do but the trade off isn't worth it. Iowa isn't to far from Chicago I think that's where I'd set my roots if I was starting over. I like Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming but my wife has already decided our next home is going to be in Texas. It's so f'ing hot in the summer it's unbelievable.

There’s no way to know the numbers one way or the other. Sorry. And even though you think the number of followers a social media nobody has actually counts it doesn’t prove any of those followers actually read it and even if they did that they cared. That being said a quick google search tells you that when comparing the two events the Sydney Sweeney topic had more severe discussions due to the racial accusations (eugenics) as where the cracker barrel discussions were more around the modern update to the logo. This would lead one to believe that there were more undies in a bunch over Sydney than Cracker Barrel https://www.google.com/search?q=was+sydney+sweeneys+jeans+ad+more+controversial+than+yhe+changing+if+thr+cracker+barrel+logo&rlz=1C9BKJA_enUS1057US1057&oq=was+sydney+sweeneys+jeans+ad+more+controversial+than+yhe+changing+if+thr+cracker+barrel+logo&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCTM0MzM4ajBqN6gCGbACAeIDBBgBIF_xBR1rdKZ_F2mx&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

After my kids get into college or roughly that age I’m out of cook county. Crime and taxes. Crazy place. Wish I had retirement $$$ when my kids were 2 ish and 4 Ish I would have moved then. Now they’re in hs or close and want to stay with friends. Etc. Wisconsin or Indy or somewhere warm. Maybe both lol 6/7 more years and I’m gone

Whenever I have business in Chicago I stay in Wisconsin or Indiana. They accept my CCW permit. I'd rather stay in Gary armed than Chicago unarmed.

I was gonna ask his source for his numbers lol.

There’s literally no way you could substantiate that. And even bigger picture….on a board full of silly arguments, this one would have to be at the top of the list. Debating which ‘side’ has more mad people is as dumb as the people getting mad in the first place!

This is evidence of gerrymandering. How do you guys not understand this? It's getting mind numbing.

That’s a lot. Sorry to hear that. I lived outside of Chicago and worked in Chicago heights for some time. Fortunately never had any of those experiences.

So you realize it was a stupid, irrelevant question and now that you’ve been called on it you’re going to weasel out, using any slimy tack you can imagine.

Whatever boss … they weren’t all in the last year though.

Liar

I’ve been victim of property crime in Chicago 3 times in the last two years. Yes. Shot my windows out of my car twice. Car Stolen once. not as recent but I was mugged on Cicero Ave (the ghetto) at gun point stealing my coat and shoes … had to walk home in the snow. We were jumped by the 2-6 at a party. Several friends put in the hospital. I got beat … but not hospitalized. Is that enough ?

What? I am calling BS.

In case you couldn’t tell by whom I quoted…I wasn’t asking you. Run along little fella.

You can’t have it both ways. Give me one good reason Chicago released that illegal aloens who cut some poor woman’s head off and stuffed her in a barrel and messed with her corpse. ? These cities stopped policing. It’s why they’re shyte holes in certain areas

What possible reason could there be for this question?

Agreed, and “one” does happen in red states, blue states, and purple states, but I’ll await his answer.

I can’t wait for his waterlogged answer to this.

Unfortunately one can be enough ... one and done.

Let’s get back on topic then, do you think the number of conservatives mad at Cracker Barrel is higher or lower than the number of libs mad at American Eagle?

I’ll ask again since I was adding after originally posting. When was the last time your were a victim Of violent crime. How many times have you been a victim this year?

The more rational parts of the state vote red in larger numbers. That’s pretty easy to see.

How do they often end up with Republican governors? Do they have a lot of people vote R for governor but D for President?

Why do blue cities let criminals go all the time. Why no bail. Why do DAs in blue cities prosecute less. Why are cops running away from blue cities because they’re not allowed to police?
