Either way, I'm surprised the media isn't covering this.  Are they just going to casually mention in November that we're getting a new state like it's no big deal?

I don't think the media sees much point in covering this, even though it's got a good chance of passing. Some things even blindside the media.

A glacier could blindside the media.

The last thing the Republicans want or need is another state with maybe 18 EVs that automatically end up in the Democratic column.

I don't see this happening ever.

7 EV. 2000 was the only election that close since we took over Puerto Rico.
