Also, I’m still trying to post this from my phone, which is harder than it looks, so y’all are going to have to chime in below with anything I’ve neglected.

My phone has figured out where I am so I’m getting a lot of local news. My friends here have registered Republican to vote in the primary. There’s a lot of talk in the local paper about these crossover voters.
