Unlike Cascadian cities south of the border, Vancouver suburbs have been comparatively booming since 2020. Surrey passed Portland in 2023 (down since 2020), Richmond passed Boise and Spokane in 2023 (flat since 2020), and Burnaby will pass Anchorage in 2024 (down since 2013).

Special postmarks for the election in our box this week! "As in past elections, USPS is ready. If you choose to vote by mail, please mail early."

Ada County (Boise), ID, now releases a scanned image of every ballot cast in their elections. I think this is bad for voter privacy reasons (folks write their names on their ballots more than you'd think), but it also lets us find the DBZ fans with surgical precision!
