Although Macon Ga per capita is near the top of the list now

Perhaps you meant Albany?  Macon isn't even in the top 20.  Never has been, if my tired old brain is doing things right.

(Of course, this is top 20 dangerous cities.  One could specify crime, homicide, etc. and come up with a different list)

We have a couple of ballot/constitutional initiatives running this year.  One to change our state term limits, one to change the voter laws essentially eliminating voter ID, and one for abortion which is very vague using the undefined "viability" term.  Beyond that, just the run-of-the-mill candidates on both sides.  I think John James may win one this year in MI 10.

Maryland is nice overall.  But don't just limit yourself to there.  TN is much better overall IMO.  FL is pretty legit, if you can stand the heat.  Thousands upon thousands of cities/areas that are much safer than Baltimore.

Here's some not too far from there:  https://moneyinc.com/safest-places-live-maryland/

Had to laugh at that list of counties one must be considerably wealthy to live in (the housing market is an overpriced dumpster fire). 😉 Though Berlin is nice for a day trip, got family roots there, no opportunities for the husband in a lot of these places. I happen to like Baltimore and still go back frequently, for all it's ills. No offense, am not a FL fan, no desire to go there. We're good where we're at right now with job stability, even though it's a dump of an unpleasant place.

Well, life is certainly all about choices.  If you choose to live in a dump of an unpleasant place because it's just easier, then you must be able to see the value in that.

The housing markets EVERYWHERE are a mess right now.  Have been putting off buying a house for over two years, will probably be able to get serious in another coupla years.  Still looking for our personal Nirvana, but have yet to locate it.  So many choices and opportunities, it's hard to decide.  I am starting to think I actually need TWO homes for retirement.

And just to put this to bed. Although she does have the Condi Rice tooth gap I find so sexy. The rest of her not. She is not a Hot peice of woman hood like Nancy P.

My take away from that is more abortions will  lower inflation.

If she can prove that then I will send her some money.

Stacy Abrams Explains You Can Get Your Bills Down To $0 By Killing Yourself

 

ATHENS, GA – Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams shocked Americans this week when she insisted we need abortion because "having children is why you're worried about the price of gas."  She later followed up her comments by reminding everyone they can reduce their bills to zero by just killing themselves.  [...]

Seriously, how about having 3 "Election 2022" threads, as follows:

   Election 2022 -- U.S. Senate & House

   Election 2022 -- Governors

   Election 2022 -- Other Races & General Posts

Separating these would enable a better ability to follow one topic or another.

Surely there is a limit as to when people will still vote for them?

"The meals are all culturally appropriate—it is South American fare"

There are differences between Mexican and all other Latin American fare -- Mexican food is spicy, and elsewhere it's not.

There is a lot of difference in Mexican food within Mexico.
