Polls, especially before any campaigning are meaningless. They are a popularity contest. Those surveyed will select names that are familiar. Newsom is in the news, so he gets poll points for being in the news.
It means nothing about the future election. This is putting the proto-cart before the proto-horse.
It's Canada. I found the exact location. To avoid doxing the poster, I'm going to not give the specifics, but I've found the location pictured. It's in Canada.
Those are not Californian plates, which say California in large red text at the top. The text at the top is in blue, like Ontario, Quebec, or British Columbia. US interstate highways aren't the only roads that have red and blue shields, some Canadian highways have similarly colored shields. US interstates do not place mile markers on the left side of the road, they are always placed on the right side.
And they are closing the highway at night, during low usage hours to minimize disruptions, like most major road work projects. Even so, detours are set up. The highway will remain passable.
the express lanes will remain open during this time to provide an alternative route for bypassing the construction.
Scissors with symmetrical handles are better and easier to use, than those with asymmetrical, desiged for right handed people. I am right handed.
Scissors seems targeted. They don't need to be unusable for left handed people. But scissor companies have chosen a design that is more expensive to manufacture, and less comfortable for everyone just to torture left handed people.
Nato is a defensive organization. If any member is attacked, every other member has to come to their aid. You can't join if you're currently being attacked. That's a pretty fundamental assumption. Nato exists to prevent future wars by acting as a bloc, not to force their members to join existing wars.
To join nato, ukraine needs to win the war and recover all their territory, release their claims on any russian occupied territories, or get enough of nato's membership on their side to be agree to be forced into the war. None of these are possible anytime soon.
