When visiting Shrewd'm with a laptop, it can be pleasant to hold Command (or Ctrl with Windows) and '+' a few times. The site scales to allow any font size, and the larger font can be pleasant to read even for Shrewds with perfect sight! For luxury Shrewdness, you can combine that with setting the browser to full screen. You'll then find yourself Shrewding a lot.

...and of course these threats are all in predominantly Republican areas, because that's the world we live in now:
https://www.njoag.gov/statement-of-attorney-genera...“Early this morning, law enforcement responded to threats that were received by email involving certain polling places in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic Counties. Law enforcement officers have responded at each affected polling place, and they have worked swiftly to secure these polling locations and ensure the safety of every voter. Some of these polling locations have already reopened to the public. At others, voters will be directed to a nearby polling location to cast their ballot.
We are grateful to the brave law enforcement officers and the dedicated poll workers who are working tirelessly to ensure everyone’s safety, and we are coordinating closely with our federal and local law enforcement partners.
Voters should continue to have confidence that they can cast their ballot without fear of intimidation, and we will continue to work tirelessly to ensure a free, fair, and secure election. Make no mistake: We will not tolerate any attempts to interfere with our elections, and we will swiftly hold accountable anyone who seeks to interfere with the safety or security of our electoral process.Don't let the terrorists win, New Jersey!

“Early this morning, law enforcement responded to threats that were received by email involving certain polling places in Bergen, Essex, Mercer, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, and Passaic Counties. Umm, only Ocean county and Monmouth are republican.
All the rest are democratic. Essex is one of the most democratic counties in the state.
Nice try, though.

...and of course these threats are all in predominantly Republican areas, because that's the world we live in now:Back in the real world, 4 of the 7 counties you called “predominantly Republican areas” (Bergen, Essex, Mercer, and Middlesex) all voted blue in 2024.
Some weren’t even close. Essex voted blue over 71% and Mercer over 65%.

That is what Fox Noise has trained them to do, for some 25 years now.
