2020 Erie County Presidential Election

Amherst was pretty solidly blue in this year's presidential election.

Biden preformed quite well in Orchard Park and East Aurora, which shows how flawed of a candidate the previous incumbent was in the White House.

Trump did fairly well in Tonawanda all things considered but that isn't surprising as that area is quite conservative.

Buffalo Skyway – Niagara Thruway Ramps

Andy | July 6, 2023

A neat set of circle ramps, with the remnants of the urban street layout below before the Buffalo Skyway and the Niagara Thruway. An urban wasteland but also an engineering marvel, but probably not super friendly to motorists as they slow down to navigate the curve on that very tight ramp with privatized paid parking below.
