I was told by a wingnut that Fresno was where the first case ever decided by the SCOTUS was heard, Marbury v. Madison 😉

You are dumber than a bag of rocks;

Fresno County is looking bluer than ever, newly released voter registration statistics show.

The Democratic Party has now pushed its voter registration lead over the rival Republicans to more than 13,000 countywide.

I lived most of my life in the Fresno area and still shop there though I am now retired and live in a rural area out of town. Driving around and shopping in Fresno one sees numerous small shopping centers with 25-40% vacant spaces. A major shppoing center barely 2 years old is already seeing vacancies from businesses closing and a large mall recently went through a publicized foreclosure sale with investors taking a 50% bath. And another large mall has large spaces that have been vacant for over a year. Further hiring is slow to say the least. And while the Fresnoo region is heavy with ag the drought is causing widespread unemployment and lost production from land fallowing and orchard being pulled which is also effecting food processing industries. That is the on the ground reality despite what the analysis might say
