HanoiVillan Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Today I learned many things from one map . . . Firstly, more than half of American states contain at least one county in which coroner is an elected post; Secondly, that in many of these states, every or nearly every county has an elected coroner; Thirdly, that you can see the former electoral dominance of Democrats in the South through coroner's offices (because most coroner elections are uncontested, and most coroners are old). From here, where there's also an extremely detailed state-by-state breakdown: https://mcimaps.com/halloween-2021-an-updated-look-at-coroner-elections-in-american/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysAVFC Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Not really sure how it's worked out or whether it's been posted before. I'm certain there will be a few debatable ones too.

My best mate worked there and said he was really boring. This was before the idea of re-becoming famous happened. It used to be once you had your time it was over. Now people seem to be famous forever even if the only good thing they did was over 50 years ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My godfather still sees him from time to time at the tennis club, and my wife saw him the other day at the college in Kidderminster. Dunno if he specifically is boring, but he certainly does plenty of everyday stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
