I used 2 different search engines, multiple phrases and words, general info and news categories, and looked at opinion polls and protests - and that's what I came up with. But aside from nearly non-existent information about a very small number of protestors in 2 of the 3 places you named, I found nothing. I'm just not finding that groundswell you imply exists in NYC, Chicago, and N Jersey. If you have any additional information, I'd appreciate it.

Quote:In all seriousness, while we are observing every single recommendation to not get infucted, we are very curious to see what the trend lines do through the rest of May and into the first half of June. I wonder how easy it would be to mess with those numbers - lots at stake either way.
