for the longest time we were the reason Walmart couldn't claim they were in all 50 states. They finally got a couple in but by god Vermonters are committed to not tolerating big box stores

not everything is digitized. There's a lot of information, special collections or otherwise, that isn't on digital databases yet. It's still in physical copies. My college library had a large online selection but it also had a sizeable physical collection, because not everything was digitized. I used physical books for research throughout my entire time in college, as did plenty of others at my school, and I only graduated last year

no voting system is perfect but ranked choice solves a lot more problems than new ones it creates. It's a shame it won't ever happen nationally because it's a direct threat to those in power but I think if any state would be the kind to get on board, it would be Vermont
