    After last night's debate, I can only hope that there's a possibility of a contested convention and a Santos like spoiler comes in to help us through.

      Yeah, I'm starting to feel so bad for the normal Democrats. The types that don't think you can change your gender. They must be in misery not knowing how to vote lol

    At 2:39 it appears that small town America Main Street where Rep. Santos is speaking with everyday Americans is in Dundas, Ontario. That's here in Canada.

      The tip off was The Deluxe. It closed many years ago when the owner died. The widow chose to continue living above and kept the diner as it was even though it no longer opened to the public. All sorts of film shoots take place inside and around it. It has that small town America vibe.

    If y'all were to put together a compilation just of Lord John Marbury greeting people at the top of his lungs (notably "Gerald!" and "Abigail!" on several occasions), I would be forever grateful.

      It was 7 candidates total and I'm guessing neither one got above 50%. If all 7 candidates were at the first debate they couldn't have been doing that bad. I'm guessing Russell was ~30% while Hoynes was just behind at about 27-28%.
