The rise of 287(g) programs has meant that ICE is increasingly using local police as a very significant force multiplier, with up to 1 in 8 arrests of noncitizens in the interior now being carried out by state and local police. This is going to have profound impacts on community relations.

Downballot is doing something fairly (entirely?) new in election analysis. Lots of people have tracked primary TURNOUT, which has some relation to election outcome. But they argue that tracking CHANGE in primary turnout is a far more reliable predictor of election outcome. Which could mean blowout.
