Super Hypothetical and narrow question:

All else equal, would you vote for the other party if the parties swapped or flipped their position on taxes. So if you’re a Republican and all the sudden Republicans wanted to raise taxes on those making over 400k and everything else, would you vote for a dem? If you’re a Democrat would you vote for a Republican, just because now they’re raising taxes, etc?

The logic of the hypothetical makes no sense without considering broader policy. Taxes are not a policy in and of themselves. They’re a lever to pay for other goals.

My boss said it’ll be another 18-24 months until my director promo is approved and goes into effect. More in comments

What are some strategies or tactics you have developed which are very successful in small markets (I'm talking SUPER small)? I feel like I've thrown all my darts and some markets still can't find talent.

Some things I've tried, here in Canada:

- non-profit/employment centers
- indeed headunting
- getting field/hiring managers to post around town
- getting on local FB groups
- local schools if there are any
- physical posters
- newspaper/old media (not great)

Ideas needed 😭

A red tidal wave on election night. Unfortunately, this is the 21st century and elections last for weeks now. Once again (just like 2020) races are slowly moving back to democrat control after Election Day. Are we surprised?
My takeaways-

1. People care more about abortions than the impending recession and inflation. Or at least they THINK they care more thanks to the media.

2. Desantis over Trump for 2024. Desantis has unmatched support. Trump politicians are still losing & so will he
