- we're supposed to get stuff, and I do believe CA too -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 23, 17:16
- Oklahoma is among those that only got 10% of what they requested. I wouldn't call them a blue state. -- nm - Mop Mar 23, 17:15 4

- That seems obvious -- nm - JackDawson Mar 23, 17:11
- (terrible first, sorry for that) -- nm - ty97 Mar 23, 17:09
- Exactly. -- nm - David Mar 23, 17:09 2
