You were boss back in your drunken stupor days. Now you're even better. You're like the limitless guy. Tito's was your NZT and now you're hardwired. Congratulations sincerely boss. Appreciate you.

I've worked the polls the last few elections at a precinct in SW Franklin County. It's not Clintonville or Upper Arlington, or German Village by a mile. A lot of people come in to vote "in uniform" (healthcare workers, food service, UPS/FedEx drivers, etc.), It's been a refreshing reminder of the diversity of our population. While my job requires me to to play everything "neutral" and I do, I can't help but wonder sometimes about whether people are voting against their own interests. Nonetheless, Issues 1 & 2 passed easily here, near the statewide averages, though below Franklin Country as a whole.

Random place to share this anecdote, but since we're reminiscing a bit in the comments:

In early 2022, Michael Stinziano taught one of my law school classes - he shouted out the Rooster and asked if anybody else was a reader. I raised my hand and it's 100% the reason he gave me an A in the class.

It was a class on legislation in Ohio so we were always talking about the ghouls in the statehouse. I want to say he was laughing about something you said about Niraj Antani but I don’t totally remember at this point

Thank you for explaining this, because I also wasn't quite sure what you meant by hogs. (I'm used to the leftist Twitch streamer Hasan Piker referring to people who refer to the conservative base as "hogs".)

It sounds like what you mean by "hogs" is what other people would call "low-information voters". It reminds me of the person in the 2020 Iowa Democratic caucus who pulled their support for Pete Buttigieg after finding out that he's gay and married to a man.
