The Australia figure in this map surprises me, given the coffee-drinking Australians I know.

I think the proper opening of the Central Subway should be counted as what's expected to happen in January, not what's happening this weekend.

Trying to assess who got this question right while Twitter is still up.
Daxing & Brandenburg airports are clearly operating.
Does Crossrail count as open on 6 November 2022? It's not clear to me what isn't operating that is expected to happen next May.

Nancy Pelosi is 82. She just led House Democrats to an unexpectedly good midterms outcome. Media’s first question is when she’ll retire.
Mitch McConnell is 80. He just led Senate Republicans to a humiliating defeat. Not one question about when he’ll step aside.

It's all measured relative to the explosive yield of that weight of TNT; see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNT_eq…

in this case that would be to permanently remove the debt limit, and authorize issuance of debt to pay for budgeted government spending

Yeah, marital status is related to age, so would definitely want to see breakdown by both age and marital status before drawing any conclusions from this.
It's not clear to me that she'd actually switch parties, or that the party would see a threat to do so as a credible one.
I can't see the Republican party protecting Sinema the way the Democratic party tried to (and almost did) protect Specter in 2010.

Also, if @RubenGallego declares his candidacy for the Senate seat, that would put pressure on Sinema to behave in ways that would help her win a Democratic primary...
Risking control how? Do you think she'd switch parties? I don't think she'd have much chance in a Republican primary in Arizona.
(Democrats holding the senate in 2024 will be tough either way; it's the most D-leaning of the three classes. See dbaron.org/senate-classes/ .)

Got to see the end of the lunar eclipse just a few minutes before sunrise.

I don't think I qualify for what Jen was asking about. (Despite that I'm not sure how strictly she's defining "typography", i.e., how much graphic design outside of fonts/text is included -- I don't qualify as an expert on it.)

The other important note on the exit-polls is that if Balad has failed to cross the threshold, costing the anti-Bibi bloc 2 seats, it will be clear that if the Joint List had managed to stick together, Bibi would not have won a majority (and if Balad does a bit better, he won’t)>

Just a few tweets up in my timeline I see pretty firm (and trustworthy) assertions that they did not, in fact, get it right.
anyway @propublica this remains a massive, embarrassing, and seriously harmful series of errors and misrepresentations
