Population went down a bit, prices went down a bit, rents went down a bit, vacancy rates went up a bit. Does that seem paradoxically unconnected to you? Seems like LAT and “experts” are doing somersaults to deny a connection between low population (eg deportation) and housing

Even in a normal year, with a race this close you wouldn’t say ‘the cake is baked’ or ‘it’s all about turnout now” on the Fri. before election day. Plenty of room for mind-changing and momentum. But that’s especially true with so many Dems holding their ballots due to the Gov

One likely takeaway from the new LAT poll is that Trump’s “I’d-like-to-see-him-do-well,” while not a full endorsement death blow was more damaging than I’d hoped … If Pratt makes a runoff he’ll have time to counter the simplistic ‘framing.’ https://t.co/X6i09MrY02

Actually, if the new LAT poll is right, there is a real chance Bass won’t make the runoff. Raman doing better than (I, for one) expected in the poll, which itself may be an expression of reluctance to reelect Bass. All separated by 4 points. https://t.co/8yNt3qFmWG https://t.co/uy8WFZmLcj
