Chicago homicide is down 7% this year, almost 30% since 2021. NYC down 8% this year, 15% since 2022. LAPD down 20% this year, 30% since 2022. A remarkable reversal of the Covid spike in city after city. Yet no Big Thought pieces on "what went right." Mostly just ... silence.

The 2024 election story is more complex than "racial realignment."
Does the GOP now have a multiethnic coalition? It's complicated, because "realignment" means different things to different people.
