IINM the median home value for American homeowners first exceeded $100k in around 2004. So, prior to that, half of Americans who owned a home had it appraised for 5 digits. That is almost beyond belief if you grew up in the Northeast where a sh-tbox starts at $300k.

Even here, though, the drop off is steep when you leave the burbs. We're selling our fine little P.O.R. Cape Cod for $250k and it's right in line with comps. The place we're moving is a townhouse that is slightly smaller and we'll buy it (in 54 minutes) for well over twice that amount. All for the privilege of having neighbors who can think and speak in complete sentences.

It's worth it.

Oh I truly hope your neighbors are hockey parents with the Raiders.

But I would appreciate some local hockey literates. I would not be shocked to find Lynah Faithful in the vicinity.

Welcome to like 3 days ago :p

(or yesterday in the POTUS thread ;) )

It isnt unfortunate...she meant every word of it and Ossoff has to be destroying her with it.

The numbers I saw yesterday showed early voting at 46k with 2 weeks to go. In the actual election only 55k voted :eek:

Wait for the GOP to claim that the dems are bussing in illegals to cast votes...
 
Re: The States. It's 10th Amendment or bust!

Good, good:

While it’s still unclear whether Democrats will get their first signature victory of the year in Georgia’s 6th House District, a takeover in New Jersey’s gubernatorial race looks likely later this fall.

On Tuesday, Lt. Gov Kim Guadagno won the GOP primary with 47 percent against four other candidates. Former Goldman Sachs executive Phil Murphy won the Democratic primary with 48 percent against five other contenders.

But nearly twice as many people voted in the Democratic primary compared to the GOP contest, and Murphy led Guadagno, 50 percent-25 percent, in a Quinnipiac University poll taken before the primaries. That might not have even been the worst number in the survey.

President Donald Trump’s job approval rating stood at 35 percent (56 percent disapproved) in the April 26 to May 1 poll. And that looked stellar compared to outgoing GOP Gov. Chris Christie’s 18 percent job approval rating (77 percent disapproved). Those are difficult numbers for any Republican candidate to overcome, particularly when Murphy will likely outspend Guadagno.

Meanwhile, in GA-6:

Democrat Jon Ossoff is leading Republican Karen Handel by 7 points in Georgia’s House special election, according to a new poll, 51 percent to 44 percent.

Five percent in the the Atlanta Journal-Constitution survey released Friday remain undecided in the nationally watched race to replace former Rep. Tom Price (R), who left to become President Trump’s Health and Human Services secretary.

It's the first poll released since the two debated earlier this week.

Ossoff has lifted Democrats’ hopes of picking off the longtime GOP-held seat, one Republicans have held since 1979.

Re: The States. It's 10th Amendment or bust!

Still better than Illinois.

Speaking of... I was just told today that the Illinois DOT will be sending each contractor a written notice next week stating that they are to stop performing any destructive work, and use the final two weeks to button any projects up as if it's winter shutdown. And all work will be halted June 30th.

Then, on July 1st, there is talk that the State of Illinois will shut down because we are approaching the third consecutive year without a state budget.

But wait, didn't Illinois pass a bill last year that road construction would be unaffected by shutdowns? If the State comptroller isn't writing checks, no one's getting paid. Money in accounts be dammed.

18, 19, and 20 year olds don't vote, people who believe that they need to protect themselves from the coming jihad out of Dearborn do vote.

Some of our rural freeways went to 75 MPH on May 1st, along with some rural highways going to 65. Our Republican government is turning us into Montana.
