🇺🇸⚡️- Despite the fanfare in DC media, the public is less interested in this shutdown than every single previous shutdown battle since 2013 when they became common.

🇺🇸⚡️- One reason for this is that the GOP has gotten a lot better at post 2020 election norms, this graph shows the early vote in GOP areas turning out at a higher rate than Democratic ones.
