The negative effect you apply to Tsla here in N Nevada & the Democrat elections is wrong....

The Dems got elected with the high number of ILLEGALS in Clark County who were not only allowed to vote, but encouraged to do so by the Dems. Sisolak is a MOB person from years of bully behavior in Clark County.

I am not any happier than you about the state being flipped to Blue...but Voter Fraud is the biggest reason.

Most of the N Nevada Tesla employees are FROM Nevada ,,,,including my neighbor who says it is the BEST job she has ever had.

I expect Musk to move his Femont assembly operations to N Nevada area.

> Our collective efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19 has saved tens of thousands of lives.

May have saved lives.
May have ruined lives.
They can NOT say decoratively that it did save lives.

Is this wrong? I sit down at the coffee shop and take a newspaper to read. Then after my cup is empty, I put the paper back on the rack and leave

I sincerely doubt Tesla/Musk are really going to submit themselves to the severe expense and disruption of moving the assembly plant.
They already have real problems meeting production schedules.
As I recall that would also put them in violation of KA agreements/tax breaks they have depended heavily on.

So I will stand by my post conclusion, headquarters and future projects only.

Tesla only set up a battery and motor plant here in No. Nevada, but their negative effect on us has been profound. We now have a Dim controlled legislature which wiped out over a decade of conservative progress in a single legislative session.

DANG!

That many folks work in that plant??

EGM says that they move to the new plant and bring their politics with them.

Tesla is now claimed to employ something like six or seven out of ten workers in No. Nevada.
Many of those are “Indirectly”.

Their influence is huge, and always liberal leaning.
They also skewed the real estate market, Reno is beginning to be like ‘Frisco for house pricing. “Starter homes from the high 300’s”.
Nearly everyone working there has to commute from Reno, Sparks, or Fernley.
There is virtually no housing local to the factory.

“Frankly, this is the final straw,” wrote Musk on Twitter after health officials in Alameda County declined to let Tesla’s factory re-open this week. “Tesla will now move its HQ and future programs to Texas/Nevada immediately.”

One highly suspects that Mister Musk was planning to move anyhoo, and Alameda County's decision gave him cover to beat feet out of the once Golden State.

Just a guess.

Hello, VIRGINIA RESIDENTS....
Four states are chasing this opportunity.
Where the hell is the POS Governor?
I suppose Virginia doesn’t need Tesla.
Virginia has The Federal Government to rely on for their financing.

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s statewide stay-at-home order is extremely popular with the vast majority of Californians.

Elon Musk should move to Florida.

We have a great work force in the Tampa Bay area - NO STATE INCOME TAX, close to Cape Canaveral and an early data processing center... Come on Musk... consider Florida before Texas...

California’s yesterday. Get out while you can.
