not idea what’s physically possible but widening the Hilton passageway with good signage, adding more open space in general on the lower level and extending the central corridor to njtransit / amtrak tracks would help a lot. worst current issues are with njtransit

I have a Grand Unified Theory of Recent Polling Errors
-there is a crucial population of people who occasionally vote, usually only in presidential elections, but don't pay attention to politics and never answer their phones

Good summary of why pollsters whiffed in VA and NJ. TLDR: electorate looked like 2017 when pollsters assumed it would look like 2024, plus Latino turnout exploded.
