    Well, first off, that headline came from an article in the Washington post reporting on the latest polling. But, Charleskerins did make an odd choice in choosing The Post which has a firewall. So all

Yes Iowa has such a huge population and they were able to conduct the poll that quickly ,is this a failed attempt at humor or a successful attempt at stupidity?

Nope. A bit of the truth. Voters are thrilled to see a light at the end of a long dark tunnel.

Not true -voters in America are not thrilled  NPR October 4 2023 " OK, so on the whole, voters view both Biden and Trump unfavorably" , not true   there is no long dark tunnel   the economy is booming. Reuters 1/20/24 "US consumer sentiment races to 2-1/2-year high "  Seems like the truth has escaped you.    What part of America are you from?

Most of Galveston's economic growth has been from Houstonians (and California refugees) who started to work from home during Covid and figured out they could work from a beach house as easily as a house in the suburbs. That, and the growth in AirBNB.  Lots of them are going to be sorely disappointed when employers keep demanding more and more office time.

Bad bad natural disaster   there  in 1905? 1920?

1900 hurricane. You can still see the scars around the city 123 years later if you know what to look for.

 

I have a good friend who ran for city office as a Dem. She lost, but we congratulated her for doing better than any other Dem. Right around 10% of the votes. Which also explains why Galveston is thriving.

 

But I suspect the Covid real estate bubble will pop if it hasn't already because of high mortgage rates. Just over an hour from downtown Houston, home prices went crazy during the shutdown.

Sure Galveston is thriving because of Republicans

Galveston is still arresting shoplifters and anyone assaulting the tourists or residents.  Not hard to imagine that's a draw for businesses tired of blue city policies.  And tourists and residents afraid of carjackings and assaults.
