...Just a quick note, nothing big. I'll pass this along then get the hell out of here. :hi:

Anyhoo, interesting to watch popularity of search terms with Google Trends, for example a multi-year graph of the term "real estate" shows that we, as expected, tend to be looking for real estate the least around December (duh) and the most in the summer (again, duh).

Why bring this here?

Try your candidate. The other side's candidate. Separate them with commas and compare them over 12 months, in particular regions, particular states -- maybe caucus states vs. primary states, "do-over" states, etc.

See which areas were thinking about the elections when. Illuminating stuff.

Thanks for listening. :)
