-The 1974 election results seem (by the end of that paragraph) tied to a desire for America's industrial base to not degenerate into OTL's Rust Belt, which is refreshingly forward-thinking for your standard voter base. Or am I reading too much into that part? Also, nice little architecture update on the Bicentennial Building.
