The only answer a lawyer can give when confronted with a purely statistical question: “it depends”

(super interesting to know though thanks for pointing this out; if you have the thread handy would love to see it)

Not to try to assign homework, but might be interesting to hear on the pod if someone dug through the panel splits, broke out how many were majority Trump, and then did the math on how likely/unlikely that outcome was based on the entire circuit’s partisan makeup (if it turns out to be improbable)

Completely correct but “unusually” is carrying a heavy burden here

I’m a lifelong New Yorker. I absolutely love this city. It’s simply untrue to say that “everything is a 15 minute bus ride away”, or imply that even a 15 minute bus ride (assuming it arrives right on time) isn’t a significant barrier to elderly folks, or other people with physical limitations.

This is a ridiculous statement. The NYC city council has identified multiple neighborhoods as “high need” in their supermarket needs index. Even USDA’s food research atlas (an under inclusive tool) highlights some low income-low access areas in NYC.
