I went to check on the latest House and Senate polls and hadn't realized I must still have a bookmark for the NYT's polling page from 2016, because this is what came up, and it's (a) an amazing jump-scare; and (b) honestly a pretty good reminder to approach polls with caution.

NYT's pre-2016 election polling page declaring Hillary Clinton has an 85% chance to win.

Immunologist and educator Dr. Florence Sabin died #OTD in 1953. The first woman to hold a full professorship at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine (where she graduated from in 1900) and the first woman elected to the National Academy of Sciences. #WomenInSTEM

A black-and-white historical photograph of pioneering scientist Dr. Florence Rena Sabin (1871–1953) in her laboratory workspace. Dr. Sabin, with her dark hair gathered back, wears thin, round wire-rimmed spectacles and a light-colored lab coat over a dark shirt. Seated in a dark wooden chair facing right, she pivots her upper body toward the camera with a calm, subtle smile. Her hands rest deliberately on a complex, vintage black microscope positioned on the desk before her. The laboratory setting features a dark wooden desk scattered with loose papers and a stack of documents. Behind her stands a tall wooden filing cabinet with numerous shallow drawers, while a large window to the right floods the scene with natural light, illuminating technical equipment nearby. The composition balances the scientific tools with her prominent, dignified presence, evoking an analytical yet warm and welcoming mood. This portrait highlights her legacy as the first woman elected to the National Academy of Sciences.

Prop 39 would make it harder for Californians to vote, while also making elections more expensive and delaying the counting process. Republicans are desperate to rig the game because they know they can’t win on their record. Protect voting rights by voting NO on Prop 39.

Mary Allen Wilkes is a pioneering computer scientist, logic designer, and attorney. She is celebrated for writing the foundational system software for the LINC (1960s), which is widely recognized as the world's first personal computer. She was born #OTD in 1937 & is 89 today. #WomenInSTEM #CompSci

Photograph of Mary Allen Wilkes (born 1937), the pioneering computer scientist, logic designer, and attorney renowned for writing the foundational operating system software for the LINC, the world's first personal computer. She is shown from the chest up, facing slightly to her right with an open, engaging expression and a warm smile. She has short, styled white hair and wears thin, round wire-rimmed spectacles. Her attire features a layered ensemble: a dark grey or taupe turtleneck sweater paired with an open black cardigan jacket. She wears a prominent, tiered statement necklace consisting of three nested strands of oblong black, grey, and cream beads.The backdrop is an understated, minimalist office or lecture setting with pale beige walls and a dark vertical partition line visible on the left. In the lower right corner, the glossy edge of a modern laptop screen is partially visible, hinting at a professional presentation or speaking engagement. The overall composition is clean and centered, creating an approachable, intellectually distinguished mood that underscores her lasting historical significance as an elder stateswoman of computer science and law.

Color photograph of pioneering astrophysicist Dr. Joan Feynman (1927–2020), renowned for uncovering the physical mechanism behind the auroras. Seated comfortably in a large, dark brown leather armchair, she is positioned slightly left of center. She looks off-camera to the left with an animated, engaged expression and a warm smile. Her short, wavy gray-white hair frames her expressive face. Her hands are raised to chest level, fingertips pressed together in an elegant steeple gesture as if emphasizing a point during an interview. She wears a casual, dark short-sleeved button-up shirt adorned with a subtle pattern, paired with a watch on her left wrist. The warm, softly lit background suggests a scholarly library or study, featuring a wooden bookshelf lined with books on the left and a large, classic vintage globe resting on a wooden stand to the right. The composition projects a warm, intellectual, and inviting mood, reflecting her brilliant legacy in space physics.
