synapse posted:I voted in person in Dupage County. The first thing that shows up is the amendment in full screen. It feels different than the rest of the ballot. Someone voting near me did not know what it was. The poll worker said "that's JB's thing". If you skip the vote, it's counted as a No So this was my first election voting in DuPage county, quick question: Do we normally have these "cops are giant babies please vote to coddle them" amendments?

Some liberal I know (I only mention so you know they probably voted straight ticket D otherwise) posted a meme where it was like "When have we ever had a tax cut in Illinois?" this morning, I assume in celebration of the defeat and I have no words. Ya, they never cut your taxes because if they do then they have to cut everyone's. That's the point ya dingus!

Wife was doing errands around Wheaton and some bro in a MAGA was walking around yelling at people in masks, called my wife a whore. There's a big Trump crew at the off-leash dog park. You can tell because it's on all their loving hats.

xzzy posted:This is a really good time to sell everywhere, prices have gone bonkers with the pandemic. Rents are wayyyyyy up too. Don't loving remind me. Interest rates were so low that you'd basically be paying the same per month no matter how much you borrowed so a house's affordability was whatever it's tax assessment was. So you had people over-bidding (myself included) on homes, knowing that an extra 20k on the price translated to like 50 bucks a month. So we'd come in ~10k over the list and were, three different times, out bid by more then 20 additional thousand. Housing market is a mess.

Speaking of Secretary of state some guy who lost to Mark Kirk (Giannoulias) is on local FOX and the host is hinting at some scandal with broadway bank but he refuses to say what. It's like a peewee word of the day where the annoucer can't say what the scandal was.

I got a survey call last night and they used it to tell me all these good things about Sean Casten and bad things about Marie Newman. Except the good things were bad and the bad things were good. (well, except her bribing a rival) "What's your race?" "Jewish" ...later... "Marie Newman voted against Israel and supporting Jews, how terrible was that?" "Strongly Supportive to vote for her"

My kiddo goes to a preschool at some local church; they sent out a letter this morning saying that since the local school district is not named in the suit, they are keeping masks - and so the preschool will follow suit.
